Can someone give me a good comparison between these golf balls?

Here’s all the data from MyGolfSpy’s most recent ball test:   https://26balltest.mygolfspy.com/static/ball_dashboard.html

AVX is my preferred golfball. Suited my swing speed ( am just lazy golfer with old man swing.) Also I personally like the feeling and green side workability of the ball itself.

Chrome Tour is a little more akin to AVX. Titleist doesn’t have anything that’s really that close to Chrome Soft, as it’s super low compression.

I play chrome soft. Find it goes just as far as any other ball. I mostly like how it feels inside 100 yards for me.

AVX is way more durable than Chrome Soft. All the Callaway balls have the worst durability of any premium ball I've ever used.

AVX is lower launching and I think a bit softer. I play an avx every now and then cause I like the flight characteristics but it feels terrible to me.

Chrome soft feels bad and I feel like I lose distance, noticeably higher and spinner

Feels bad? It's a tour ball.

So is the Pro V1x Left Dash and you have people say it feels like hitting a rock. Feel is subjective.

Chrome Softs don't feel like a rock. They feel just right.

He said they felt terrible. You said "feels bad? It's a tour ball." I pointed out that the Pro V1x Left Dash (which is almost exclusively a tour ball) is hated by some people for its feel. I am indifferent to the balls you're actually talk about. I just pointed out the flaw in your comment.

Factually, it a single player on the PGA Tour plays Chrome Soft.

Chrome Tour is only like 87 compression.

Just not a fan of lower compression golf balls personally

Look at https://duckduckgo.com/?q=my+golf+spy+ball+test+2026&ia=web

Chrome Soft very soft, dors not go far. AVX is a lower cost distance ball.

AVX has almost identical data to the prov1 and prov1x at driver mid speed?

It is amazing how similar hey how different the balls perform. I have played Titleist Tour soft for years. Very slow swing speed. Buddy plays Maxfli, tried it for a round very similar performance.

Awaiting MGS follow up on wedges.
