Titleist Pro V1 vs Pro V1x: which should you play?
Buyer guide · prices updated November 15, 2026
The Pro V1 and Pro V1x are the best-known premium balls in golf, and they usually cost the same. The difference is how they fly and feel, not quality.
The short version
| Ball | Flight | Today from |
|---|---|---|
| Pro V1 | Penetrating, slightly lower | $57.99 a dozen at TGW |
| Pro V1x | Higher | $57.99 a dozen at TGW |
| Pro V1x Left Dash | High | $49.99 a dozen at Academy Sports + Outdoors |
Which one?
- Pro V1 suits most good amateurs: a softer feel and a stable, penetrating flight, which also helps in the wind.
- Pro V1x suits players who want a higher flight and more spin into greens, or who find the Pro V1 flies too low.
- Left Dash is for faster swingers who spin the ball too much and want a firmer feel.
The best test is to play a sleeve of each around the greens and with your usual approach clubs.
Alignment versions
AIM, Enhanced Alignment and RCT (radar-tracked, for launch monitors) versions are the same ball with different markings, so we list them separately but they play the same.
Pay less for the same ball
Mint and Near Mint Pro V1 and Pro V1x used balls are a popular way to play Titleist's premium balls for much less.
