Anybody have the scoop on these new balls from Callaway? Maybe an embargo date, release date or even some reviews?
Looking at the Gauntlet peeps...

You hear a rumor somewhere you're looking to confirm?
I haven't heard/seen anything either.
If history repeats itself, I would think the Grandaddy boys will know more about this ball come December
We had the Chrome Soft in hand and in play at the Gauntlet last year
Negative. Urethane balls with firmer cores actually have more spin on partial shots than balls with the same cover and softer cores. For example, the prov1x and zstar xv will spin more on partial shots than the standard zstar and prov1. The Zstar and prov1 will feel softer, but that doesn't mean they will spin as much on partial shots. They will spin more on full shots thoughso a firmer chrome soft would go longer? at the expense of what, stopping power greenside? if so, I'll stick with current chrome soft. best ball I've played in a long time.

Correct. Shot type plays a role too when you are talking about half shots or pitches. So for me specifically, what Joe said applies. I understand that may not be the case for everyoneVery true, however one thing to keep in mind is the difference in spin is minor in most cases, where as the difference in full contact where compression is necessary some believe is rather large.

my question was more from the assumption that the ball phil put in play at the presidents cup and violated the one ball rule was the prototype firmer ball. per Phil, he used it on that hole because it was a firmer ball and he would be able to go for it in two. so I'm not sure how what you're saying (which is accurate) and what Phil said jibe?

I was talking about greenside spin, in particular. Firmer balls do spin less of the Driver and irons, that can lead to an increase in distance for higher SS players. That is what Phil was referring to.
so longer off long clubs, but pretty much the same greenside spin? sounds like a winner!
