Best golf ball of 2022

Best “tour” golf ball

1.Titleist ProV1

What Titleist says: “Titleist Pro V1 offers total performance and features long distance, very low long game spin, penetrating flight, Drop-and-Stop™ greenside control and very soft feel.”

From our launch piece: “It’s important to note that this is the first totally new dimple redesign of the Titleist Pro V1 golf balls since 2011, and since that time the Titleist R&D team has gone through the painstaking process of designing, manufacturing, and tested more than 1,900 aerodynamic patterns—including no less than 60 different iterations of the new 2021 Pro V1’s 388 dimple layout and more than 30 versions of Pro V1x’s 348 dimple design as per Titleist.”

2. Titleist ProV1x

What Titleist says: “Titleist Pro V1x offers total performance and features long distance, high trajectory, low long game spin, Drop-and-Stop™ greenside control and soft feel.”

From our launch piece: “The casing layer between the core and the cover adds speed and lowers spin on long game shots. This casing layer is comprised of a highly-resilient, high-speed (another way of saying firm) ionomer which was originally developed for the Pro V1x Left Dash — and like with any piece of golf technology has trickled its way into other products in the line where it can be used to increase performance variables.”

3. Bridgestone Tour B X

What Bridgestone says: “The new Tour B with Reactiv iQ is the smarter tour ball. Proprietary new Reactiv iQ is a smart cover technology that reacts to the force of impact. Reactiv iQ rebounds quickly on tee shots, delivering explosive velocity and increased distance. Reactiv iQ stays on the face longer on approach shots, providing more spin and soft feel around the green.”

From our launch piece: “The new Bridgestone Tour B series continues the company’s focus on the moment of impact across all 14 clubs in the bag. Designed to cater to the unique needs of each club, the new Reactive IQ cover utilizes unique impact modifiers to rebound quickly on tee shots. Around the green, the new Tour B stays on the clubface longer — or to use a Tiger Woods term: gets more “face time” — for more spin.”

5. TaylorMade TP5x

What TaylorMade says: “The new Tour Flight Dimple Pattern unlocks the next level of aerodynamics while promoting maximum carry distances and a steep angle of descent for extra stopping power, especially on long irons.”

From our launch piece: “TaylorMade is looking to optimize aerodynamics once more with what it is calling “Tour Flight Dimple Pattern” to improve both ball-flight stability and carry distance throughout the bag. The new dimple design alters the relationship between dimple volume and depth, which leads to reduced drag and optimized lift that keeps the golf ball in the air longer through its descent leading. TLDR; more potential distance.”
