I'll watch this on the way back from my lesson 😁👌👌
Did you cancel at St Mellion today Dan?
Good unbias review 😎
Tried this ball when it first come out and was very impressed.
Durability? About 3 per round of golf…tick 😂
The review of this ball from PXG is so good. I reckon with the amount of Titleist hats, clubs and normally the balls as well most would think the review would be heavily biased, the PXG ball is good but not as good as a Prov 1 or whatever but no totally unbiased which is a welcoming change from other reviewers of kit. James what a player, shots to order. I can do that 50 yard thin, 1 yard top 😃. With James with his ability i reckon he could use anything really, not a Top Flite of course but any premium ball. Dan the fourth shot after the quick lesson segment was funny. When the reach my pro shop might give em a go.
£45.00 for a dozen they gonna have to be good for that amount of money.
Really interesting Dan, you need to try and get James on your channel as much as possible.
Did you mention the recommended price for a dozen, be interesting to compare it to Pro Vs?
Nice review. James does have some game that’s for sure.
Is it me or is it coincidence that PXG release a golf ball in the same month USGA & RA call for a roll back of the ball ? Now I’m not saying the ball is slow but I see USGA and RA needing to demonstrate a “conforming” ball
This new ball will be perfect as long as it’s 10-15 yds short 😂
Be really interesting to see you get James hit a range of balls going from cheap through to top end and see data
Great review dan and James. Honest and unbiased. Good to see you play a variety of shots. If only we could have takes 2's and 3's on the course 😅
Wonderful review of the PXG golf ball. Nice hitting the various shot shapes that Dan aske for. Cheers.
I have played Lykia Links several time it really is a hidden gem of a course. Great video Dan don't know where all the negativity for the PXG ball came from or why it happened. I will give the PXG ball a try I use PXG irons, Titleist woods, Cleveland wedges and Odyssey putter so why not.
Funny, isn't the same ball the everybody else sais it's crap ??
Refreshing to see the PXG ball being tested out on the course and by a player of James's standard.
If only you two could putt. Just kidding great review
Hmmm, PXG offers this ball only, then why get fitted? There is no other PXG brand to move to, and I am not going to change clubs to match the ball. But a nice look at its performance.
Given the price point in the UK, do you think people will give it a go, over say the titleist or chrome soft? Personally i use the Stripe ball, mainly for putting reasons, but wld consider PXG if it was in the same bracket as it.
Durability tests need to be realistic – hitting trees, hitting people on the next tee, hitting cars, hitting tee markers out the hosel etc. Let's get it scientific!!!
Funny, Rick Shiels did a similar test and panned the ball. I think this test was more accurate.
Great golf lesson on that par 3!!!!
What James told you before about tee it high and let it fly looks good.
I've had pretty much the same performance from the premium line of balls from most companies off the tee. For me it comes down to feel and spin around the green. But I only get current line balls when Dick's sporting goods sends out 10-15 dollar coupons. Or I get last year's balls on clearance and save usually get them once down to 30 dollars a dozen. I'll have to find one out on the course to try or wait till they mark them down next year 👍
top notch, Dan. James is some player.
Keep up the nice work Dan 🙂
Great review/test of the ball Dan. Looks to be a great ball.
Hey Dan how about that quick lesson off James at 8.05 , what a difference.
Looks and feels great love to test this ball👍
Very impressive, I also play Wilson Staff but I would imagine a very different one to James.
I was lucky to be able to watch James and Dan film this review and also the vlog on Lykia Links. I have to say they are lovely lads, extremely generous with their time, and very encouraging of all the guys who went on the Turkey trip. They each gave me some PXG balls to try out at a couple of courses we subsequently played and I have to say, the balls were superb. Sadly, a few of the balls are now at the bottom of some very pretty water features! Operator error I’m afraid.
He's good that James!! The ball seems to be very good, must try it myself.
The PXG ball is made in the Vietnam golf ball factory, other brands made in Vietnam are Spalding lol
I love this style of video. Would be good to see all ball and club reviews done this way and maybe some vlogs with you and someone else playing and walking and talking. Would love to see some videos with you and Jordan out on course together chatting away.
Great vlog as always. I play PXG clubs and love them. Was a bit dubious about the balls as heard a few reviews about cutting up quickly and poor feel whilst putting. Got a dozen and have to say I was very impressed just as you both were. Only played two rounds so far but with the same ball and no different to my usual Prov V1 in terms of wear n tear. And if anything, goes a little bit further. Great feel on the green too. Found it stopped on the green well too. With a price tag at £45/dozen whats not to like. Everyone is different but will be playing these for the season.
I heard it was a bit clicky
Quality.
Using James added a real depth to the review. Easily the best review of the PXG ball I've seen .👍
how comes u dont upload as many matches as u used too
YouTube is hilarious. You say they remove subscribers but I get recommendation of you and Lester reviewing pancakes 😂
Interesting, Rick Shiels put out a video saying they are overhyped, disappointing and underperformed against other premium balls – never know if there's any bias there so I'm inclined to trust your view. You missed out one major point, what is the price of these? That is a big factor for many people
Use a golf ball maybe a couple of rounds 😂 think most of us use them until we loose them
Seen these in other reviews and it’s just another experience premium ball and not much difference to the other premium balls
Can I have a lesson with James please 😂😂😂…also lovely tan James
Interesting good to see you got James trying it out
