Okay world of Wonder this is part three of the which balls right for me series we’re testing chrome tourx chrome tour and chrome soft so far Chrome tourx has checked off all the boxes that I needed to at a baseline level kind of Compares itself to Chrome soft X which is what

All I wanted but this is where all the money’s made on the tea with the Putter and on the tea I want to see if I’m going to get some ball speed out of this so I’m actually going to be hitting all three golf balls we’re going to hit some

Drives about two or three with each ball and find out ultimately what Ball’s going to land my bag for the 2024 season it’s Johnny Wonder from the T hitting drivers and hopefully find a new golf ball let’s get into it here we go all right so we’re going to start off

With chrom soft X got my new paradigm AI smoke driver I’ll just give you the specs on the driver it’s a 90° head at minus one in the D setting it’s got a flat Cog that is going to be the driver that we’re going to be doing the testing

With we’re on the 17th hole at the farms you got a sack up up and hit a good shot a dog leg uh left to right but uh whenever I play this hole I kind of like to aim it down the right side and just

Rip it cuz it does open up to the right so that’s going to be my line and let’s see what this ball does okay actually hit it really good okay 162 ball speed 282 carry 2609 spin okay not awesome lached at 15.8 though serious launch okay let’s hit another

One hit that one a lot better nice and high that was closer to the center of the face 164 284 2349 spin better launch that time at 14 still a little high but we’re getting a good Baseline let H one more I’ve actually picked up a little bit of ball speed 46

Wanted to hit a little further so we’re actually getting uh kind of cruising in the low to mid 160s which is good for me hit that one right out of the middle that’s a 9 and 1 half out of 10 strike 165 286 2574 13.1 launch those

Are those are happy numbers okay so we have a good Baseline but we’re going to start with chrome soft I’m going to save the ball that I kind of want to play for last so what we know about Chrome soft is it’s a very forg golf ball it’s got a

Soft feel it’s the softt of the bunch where it got better pretty dang good around the greens uh and pretty awesome into the wind if you guys saw the iron video uh into the wind it flies really really well so let’s see what it does with the driver hit it pretty

Good kind of a kind of a high cutter out there 163 272 had a lot of spin on it 385 spin which is a lot hit it pretty good maybe a little wipy but good ball speed that was pretty good there okay 162 281 2749 spin 13.7

Launch okay those are cool numbers uh let’s go to the Chrome tour this is where I’m going to start really eyeballing the ball speed if I can get anywhere in the high 160s with either one of these golf balls I’m going to be super excited absolutely

Nuked I got to tell you for the folks at home this this AI smoke uh Max head is really good okay one 166 289 at 2419 spin those are awesome numbers so a lot of the a lot of the RPM mitigation with the tour tour uh the

Tour golf ball a lot of it happens with the irons it’s not a golf ball that’s going to dip and spin a lot with the driver so it’s something to kind of something to kind of consider um so you’re choosing the Tour golf ball based on the iron performance more than anything

Else that was nuke too see where this one goes to 167 29 2 2300 spin 13.7 launch okay so we’re happy Chrome tour X in R&D and a lot of the marketing and whatnot and all the tests that they did ball speed uptick in the Chrome tour X versus XX was the big

Story that and some spin around the greens uh were kind of the big selling points so with chrom soft X we’ll call the ball speed average we have to rewind the video I think it’s probably around 163 so I’m going to try and hit all these pretty much out of the middle of

The fade hopefully and let’s see if we can get three balls that kind of live over 166 oh God that was awesome 168 292 2559 Spin and 11 1/2 launch all right we’re happy and this is I wonder like I wonder what it now now see now this is how stupid I

Am now I’m thinking like what if I had a Triple Diamond Head move the weight for it maybe I get some more out we’ll talk about that later God I want to go out and play now like we’re out here doing videos like I’m absolutely mashing this thing 167

293 2224 13 and 1 12 launch I’m going to tee this one down a little lower I’m going to see if I can get it to launch a little lower just for because why not God this thing is awesome the combination of this ball and this head and like this setup 168 290

2640 spin 13 launch okay let’s have a conversation the R&D marketing story was true it is faster off of the te so I essentially picked up 4 mph of ball speed uh or three and we call it three and a half that’s 10 yards a carry

Just by swapping in a new golf ball and I’m maintaining everything that I have with my ball so all I got out of this whole experiment I’m going to choose a chrome tourx because of the performance doesn’t lie but essentially I kept everything I love and I gained something I needed

Which is awesome I got three and a half miles of ball speed out of this whole thing uh by switching into the golf ball and I love how it feels I love how it sounds but if you want more information on the Chrome family of golf balls

Chrome tour Chrome soft and chrome t X go to the world of Wonder website or Callaway golf.com but that is how you test golf balls three videos breaks it down that’s how we do it on tour that’s all the elite amateurs do that’s the best way to find out what golf Ball’s

Right for you it’s Johnny Wonder from the te we’re out of here
