I absolutely hated the earlier versions of this ball. It was spinny, not durable, didn't feel great. \n\nFrankly, they should call this ball 4.0 or something else all together because its an entirely different golf ball from what it used to be. First thing I noticed is that this ball is noticeably LONG and high. Maybe even a little too high for my taste. Compression felt somewhere between a pv1 and pv1x. Spin was definitely a little higher than my typical ball preferences (pv1x, bridgestone bx or brx - depending on my mood), but not so much that i felt it really changed anything for me. Overall, felt very similar to a BX. They also held up great. Wasn't playing great, so I was topping a few, in the sand a couple times, etc, so they took a beating, but at the end of the round they still looked pretty much new. \n\nIf you hated the previous versions like I did, and you weren't sure about trying them, it may be worth giving them a shot.
