Now on Tour: Next GenerationTitleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x Golf BallsThe new 2023 Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls made their PGA TOUR debut last week at the Sanderson Farms Championship – a week earlier than expected. Titleist’s tour seeding and validation process for 2023 Pro V1 and Pro V1x – the next generation of the most trusted golf balls on the PGA TOUR and at every level of competitive golf – had been scheduled to begin this week at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open in Las Vegas. In the days leading up to Sanderson Farms, however, Titleist tour reps received multiple requests from Garrick Higgo, M.J. Daffue and Gary Woodland – each of whom had done extensive testing during the prototyping process – asking to put the new balls in play as soon as possible.The final Pro V1 and Pro V1x prototypes, manufactured at Titleist Ball Plant 3 in New Bedford, Mass., were delivered overnight and arrived Tuesday morning at The Country Club of Jackson in Titleist’s white box prototype packaging.On Thursday, Higgo (Pro V1), Daffue (Pro V1x) and Woodland (Pro V1x) became the first three players to game the 2023 models in competition. Four holes into his first round, Daffue’s NEW Pro V1x rolled into the cup at the 182-yard par-3 4th for an ace. Playing his NEW Pro V1, Higgo led the field in birdies (24), closing in 4-under 68 Sunday to finish one shot out of the playoff.Gathering feedback from the game’s best players through every stage of the R&D process and then earning their validation under the pressure of competition are critical elements in the development of all high-performance Titleist golf balls and equipment. Today, Titleist’s flagship models are trusted by more than 72 percent of players across the PGA TOUR and major worldwide tours, while the percentages are even higher at the game’s biggest amateur, college and junior events. Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls were also used by the winners of all four men’s major championships in 2022: Scottie Scheffler (Pro V1), Justin Thomas (Pro V1x), Matt Fitzpatrick (Pro V1x) and Cameron Smith (Pro V1x). “The Pro V1 and ProV1x, as a whole, are the best balls in golf so it’s hard to say, ‘How are you going to possibly make that ball better when it’s already the best?’” said Jordan Spieth, who has won his three major championships and 13 PGA TOUR victories playing a Pro V1x. “I think when you think of anything being the best, you’re really going against yourself then. You’re trying to beat your former self versus worrying about the competition. And I think Titleist does that. They continue to push being the best and continuing to stay No. 1 – and that’s a really difficult thing to do.” Over the next three practice days in Las Vegas, Titleist Golf Ball R&D reps Fordie Pitts and Jeff Beyers will be working with players as they continue to test the new Pro V1 and Pro V1x models – from the short-game area, to the driving range, to the golf course. The process will continue over the coming weeks and months with professionals and elite amateurs around the world, as well as members of Team Titleist. “First thing I’ll always do is take them to the short game area. For me, that’s always the most important,” said longtime Pro V1 player and reigning Masters champion Scottie Scheffler. “From there I’ll go to the range and just look at numbers, carry, stuff like that. From there, I’ll go out on the course and just start hitting shots. So same thing I do in the short game area, have a few of my ball, have a few of the new ball and just try and hit the same shot and see how the ball reacts, see what it does in the wind and just go from there. “One shot that I’m always practicing is when I take some off of it. I need to see that it’s still the same (distance) gaps between my full shot and when I’m taking some off of it. When I’m practicing on the driving range, if I have a little mishit or if a shot doesn’t feel right...I usually have a really good feel for how far it actually carried. If my stock wedge is 140 and I’m trying to hit at 135, and maybe I catch a little bit off and I’m like, ‘man that really feels like 132,’ if it goes that distance, that’s really important to me. And that gives me a lot of faith in what that golf ball’s going to do.” ... See MoreSee Less

Strong Summer Rounds Bode Well for DemandThe page has officially turned on the summer of 2022.The peak-season, summer months of June, July and August are disproportionately important for the golf industry, as those months tend to carry almost 1 1/2 times their weight in terms of the year’s total rounds. It’s a make-or-break period for most golf facilities.This year, at a national level, all three of those critical months were up over the prior year between 3% and 4%, no small feat given that 2021 was a record summer.As a broader point of comparison, this year’s June to August rounds total paced 14% ahead of the most recent three-year, pre-pandemic average (2017-19) for the same summer stretch.When the summer was kicking off, we suggested the year’s “slow start” – play was down 10% YOY through April – was likely more a reflection of unfavorable weather than softening demand. The strong summer showing should assuage concerns that golf engagement was slipping from the pandemic lift. In fact, summer play has helped the industry climb out of the sizeable hole Mother Nature dug for us earlier in the year. Through the end of August, we’re now just 2.6% off the record-setting pace of 2021. These final four months of the year are not insignificant, accounting for just over 30% of annual play, although the month-to-month impacts won’t be felt as acutely as during the summer months.Still, if the weather remains favorable the rest of the way, we might only be off by about 2% at the end of the year. That’s not bad considering where we were after April. And don’t misinterpret being “down” a couple of percentage points as a negative — that’s a normal weather-impact year. Chances are, we’re still looking at one of the top three or four years for rounds ever on record.Speaking of Mother Nature, in signing off this week, our thoughts are with all those affected by Hurricane Ian, one of the strongest storms to hit the U.S. mainland in years.Joe Beditz NGF ...
