Titleist Pro V1 Ball

It’s over 20 years now since Pro V1 first appeared on the scene, and its dominance on the world’s tours ever since has been such that Titleist has never yet been tempted to replace the name.

That’s not to say much hasn’t changed under, and indeed, in its urethane bonnet in the latest biennial upgrade. This 2021 incarnation features an all-new design promising more greenside spin, a softer feel and a higher, more consistent flight via changes to every layer.

Principle among these are a core reformulated for greater distance, an increase in the dimple count from 352 to 388 for a more consistent flight, and a new softer urethane elastomer cover for enhanced short-game performance.

Titleist's dedication to continually updating and improving the iconic Pro V1 is one of the reasons it has long been one of the best golf balls on the market.

Consistently Long And Straight

In our testing we detected slightly greater differences between the Pro V1 and sister Pro V1x than in previous generations. The Pro V1 spins a little less and flies noticeably lower than the new Pro V1x on a consistently long and straight flight. We were seriously impressed with the strength and consistency of the flight, particularly in the wind.

Of course, that’s not to say you can’t flight it when you need to – with a 7-iron we achieved plenty of flight and good control coming into the greens. Closer to the green, that new, softer cover helps to deliver impressive levels of feel, spin and control.

The Pro V1 doesn’t top the tour ball counts week in, week out for nothing. The world’s top players demand the very best in all-round performance, and this latest model delivers just that via a blend of impressive long-game distance, excellent control into the greens and high levels of consistency, all with a slightly softer feel. What more could you want from a golf ball?

Titleist continues to raise the bar in the premium golf ball sector.
