  • The Callaway Chrome Tour X was voted the #1 golf ball by Today's Golfer. I put it up head to head with my favorite cheap ball, the Legato LTX 3085 in a 9 hole scramble.

    I have gamed probably 4 or 5 boxes of Legatos at this point and it's a fantastic ball for the price, I have not used Chrome Tour X, but have used and enjoyed the Chrome Tour, but for the price difference it's tough to justify some other balls. My current main ball, however, is the Srixon Q Star Tour. I feel like it's been the most consistent performer for my game.

    Watching your videos earlier this year, I purchased 2 dozen Legato balls. I’ve really enjoyed them. The only adjustment I had to make was on the green. It seems the softer compression needed a little more strike to get the distance down. Off the tee and fairways to greens have been a nice experience.

    I like the Legato. It is a pretty decent ball. If I have one complaint, at least for me, with the ball is that it balloons on me off the tee. Distance is generally equal to say a ProV1 but the ball height is very high and the ball tends to land like a mortar round in the fairway. There were a couple of times that I commented, 'I wish my wedges would spin up like this.' I've delofted the driver to under 9 degrees but it still does it. So these are my 'winter' balls where I get more in air distance but less roll out because soggy Washington doesn't get any roll out with any ball so more air time is a bit better. Off the irons the Lagato's are fantastic, probably better than any other ball I've hit.

    • @LetsPlayThru
      @LetsPlayThru  5 днів тому

      @tcofield1967 5 днів тому

      @@LetsPlayThru Not at this time but probably will give it a check this fall when I start back at the facility that I use for winter practice. They have the GC Hawk system there. I can compare it to the ProV1, TP5 (2024 model) and maybe pick up some Chrome Tours for comparison. It's probably related to the way I swing the club. Getting height isn't normally a problem but I do tend to hit a spinny ball. It's part of the reason I hit the Stealth 2 Plus since it is the lower spinning head.

    Hi Gabe, I've played the Legato golf balls and I have to say they were just ok for me. My results differ from yours.

    Interesting comparison. Construction is very different.
    3 piece 85 compression 350 dimples v. 4 piece 98 compression 332 dimples.
    You can obviously play with a 4 piece x ball.
    I personally play OnCore Elixr ‘22s that I get bundled for $25 a dozen. They have the identical construction specs to the Legato. 3 pc, 85 comp, 350 dimps.
    My premium choice would be Wilson Triad. 3pc, 86 comp, 348 dimps right now you can get them direct from Wilson for $34 dozen. That’s a direct comparison.
    I realize the point, they are not the “best” of the year Callaway.

    I spoke to a buddy from one of the golf retailers and he said that ProVs are still selling well, but the other brands' $50 balls are not doing well. I think these guys have been pushing pricing up each year and are now hitting the ceiling for what they can change. I play Vice and I've hit just about everything out there and I see them as being as solid as anything at $55. And I'm paying $33 when I'm buying them in five dozen.
    I think the Vice's... Legatos... yes, Kirklands, and Maxflis are grabbing market share because of the overpricing by the larger brands. Maybe they will come into 2025 with a little better pricing?
