      I haven't played it this year, but last year quite a bit. It was one of the longer balls I used all year off the tee. But I just couldn't stray from the overall performance of the ProV1

      The Tour is my wife's preferred ball. I find them a good, solid ball but I will say that the only time I hit them is when we play alternate shot. She just doesn't like the ProV1x.

      I would love the NXT Tour in Yellow. I use the NXT Tour S sometimes because of the color but I prefer the NXT tour when I compare the 2 balls.

      NXT Tours offer an affordable option to the ProVs. Little, if any, loss in distance or playability. Big savings in the wallet.

      Though I have played both the NXT Tour and Tour S, I play Pro V1 as my everyday ball. However, during the colder months, off season, I have played both NXT Tours and like them both. I most appreciate the yellow color of the S in fall when there are lots of leaves around and in winter's low light conditions, but frankly, I think the regular NXT Tour is a bit longer off the tee. (May even be as long as a Pro V.) Around the greens the Tour and Tour S seem very similar. I don't buy new boxes of either ball, but whenever I find one of the most recent models in nearly new condition, I will save it for when cooler conditions takeover. I have a few dozen of them in a bin in my garage right now, along with a bunch of DT TrueSofts, which I also like in winter, in yellow, as well.

      Honestly, the NXT Tour is probably my favorite (outside of a Pro V). I might even buy a dozen new if they came in yellow. I know the S does, but I like the Tour better. Of course, as has been implied many times on here by many other TT members, a yellow Pro V option would be my ideal choice. I wouldn't buy all my Pro Vs in yellow, but certainly a few boxes a year for play in conditions where the yellow will better stand out. (Ever play in the fog? Yellow balls are great in fog!)

      The soft impact and the yellow color option is great. But I prefer a more spin control for my short game. The picture is from my 5th hole-in-one slam dunk I made in January. I used a NXT TOUR S.

      The NXT Tour is just a great ball . If the Pro V is Willie Mays than the NXT Tour is Frank Robinson , a hall of famer in it's own right just not the best ever !

      Like the cost and durability of NXT tour and tour S and yellow color of NXT tour S. Would prefer Prov1 in yellow but not available.

      I used to be a devout NXT Tour user until I won a competition and got 2 dozen proV1's. For me it was the perfect ball for cost/performance balance with soft feel and low spin.
      I still go back to the NXT Tour in the winter

      primary ball has become prov-x but I do like the feel and color option of the nxt tourS in the fall and winter
    • I like the nxt tour for all those reasons; driver distance, feel around the greens and every where else. I have been alternating between pro v1 and nxt tour balls and I actually like the nxt balls a little better. To me they are very similar and the nxt is a whiter ball. This sounds like a crazy reason but it is true for me.
    • NXT-S, love the soft feel, control and lower spin rate and it's a bit more affordable compared.

      NXT Tour S is a great ball and at a much more comfortable price. My favorite ball is the ProV1 and ProV1X but price makes them a difficult choice given all the other alternatives on the market, i.e. cally and TM. The NXT Tour S has great playing characteristics such as distance, feel and consistent performance on the greens; a very good ball.

      The NXT Tour is the ball I most like to play, but frankly I look for bargains on it because retail straight-up they are too expensive.

      The Tour S is as long as the prov models to me and really holds up well as far as durability yet still has great feel around and on the greens.

      Love the yellow cover, easy to see in flight, and on fairway. A 5 handicap, I shot 71 first time out with the S model. Would like a little more driver distance, but can work with this model. Comes off the irons really well, and putts true.

      A few years back I used to play the NXT tour and thought it was a great ball at a great price. I liked the consistency flight and feel the most about them.
    • I greatly appreciate NXT Tour. The cost and durability are great. But I mostly enjoy 2014 TOP FLITE D2+ DIVA WHITE. To know more in detail on the golf ball the check out www.grumpygopher.com/.../.
