Wilson TX4

I understand Harrington won the Open w/ this ball - I am wondering if anyone has tried it and if you have comments...

Re: Wilson TX4

I've been playing it for the last couple of months.

Great golf ball.

Spin is predictable and easy to control. Superb distance with the irons, the ball just jumps off the face and seems like it doesn't want to land. Durability is great, I get on average 25-30 holes out of a single ball, which is pretty good for a premium ball.
I love the flat dimple design as well.

It's a shame Wilson Staff haven't done much marketing for it here in the US.

Re: Wilson TX4

According to the Golf Channel, he played the ProV1x at The Open - take it for what it's worth.

I got a dozen online from an EBay site, since I couldn't find ANY locally (and I am in Augusta GA). Your quote is quite accurate! This is a fine ball, IMHO, based on my first two rounds of play. The performance and feel is very similar to the ProV1X, but the price is much better. In fact, the site I ordered from sold them for $12.95/dz, $5.60 shipping, for new balls with slight printing imperfections (but not XXX-ed out) or $18.50/dz perfect/new. And you could go up to 8 dozen with just $10.70 shipping. They generally retail for $29.95. I only ordered one dozen since I had never hit this ball, but I believe there will be more of these in my future. If you haven't hit this ball and currently play high end balls, I suggest you try it.
