Better than PROV1

My daughter is a world junior golf champion and has been playing PROV1 since she was 7 years old. Now she is 12. She has 4 holes behind her shoulders. She has a handicap of 1.6 and has an average turn speed of 95 mph on her Ping G LE Driver. Her best finish on an 18 hole course from a ladies tee was 2 under par. They are amazing and she would have it without that Missed the feel and spin of Prov1 which she absolutely loves. She gets balls from other brands for free so she can try them. She tries a ball but ends up giving it to her friends. She played in Srixon, Bridgestone and Callaway. In addition, we tested all of these balls on our Flightscope and Skytrak golf simulators to find the best ball, just like we test golf clubs to find the best clubs for them. Your best score is 7 under par in a round. She shot 2 eagles and 3 birds. She said she was able to get the ball closer to the pin on her approaches because she was using shorter racquets to get the same spin and distance as her Prov1, resulting in multiple one-shot hits. She used the same club on a few shots, but as she progressed she just swung it with more control and allowed it to roll a little more to reach the graded green. PROS: 1. Softer feel on the track - you can really hear and feel the difference. Prov1 has a distinct click when you press it, this sound is similar to the sound you make when you hit Callaway Supersoft. It is very calm of face.2. Softer club feel. In terms of control, it's very similar to the Prov1 from the stick, but there's a slight reduction in punch at impact. She likes the feel of the shot, but just as good as in Prov1.3. Less spin in all racquets. On the Skytrak, we could see a sharp drop in backspin from Drive. Playing with a Ladies Ping G LE driver, which needs to have a high launch with a bit more spin, the Prov1 can spin at an average of 3800 rpm. With AVX, her rider's average reverse spin speed is now 2,700 rpm. Sometimes it drops to 2100, but averages to 2700 rpm4. Lower Launch Angle - Your rider's launch angle varies between 15 and 18 degrees on Prov1. With AVX, it now launches at the ideal launch angle of 12-13 degrees. This gives her an average of 28 yards more time on the Skytrak. The decrease in launch angle decreases with shorter racquets. So you won't notice any difference when you get to the wedges.5. greater distance. So we noticed a 10% increase in distance with their driver, but like I said, it decreases as the clubs get shorter. For example, if she hits a 6-iron with her Prov1, it will have the same distance and amount of backspin as hitting AVX with her 7-iron. Now she can use her shorter, more accurate racquets to deliver the same distance and spin as a long stick. People worry about their hardware when buying AVX because it has less rotation than Prov1. What they didn't take into account, however, is that you can use a shorter, more accurate racquet to get the same distance and spin as she notices on the course and in Skytrak Simulator.6. Pretty in yellow - We both like the way he looks in yellow. Eventually they came out with a premium yellow ball. The ball is easier to see in flight. CONS: 1. NOT FOR SLOW TURN SPEEDS - On a good day, I get my rider to 80mph. I don't throw it high enough or spin it enough to keep the ball in the air. I lost about 15 yards from my average ride. I'm sticking with Prov1. My daughter may have AVX. SUMMARY: I think these balls are for faster swing players, most of them have very high launch and spin. This will give you a penetrating drive if that is your goal. This is the perfect ball for people with fast swing speeds who want to lower their launch angle and reduce backspin. This gives them more distance and less rotation. This allows them to cover the same distance with a shorter, more accurate stick as with a longer stick. Her 2 eagles and 3 birds show her game improving.
