I think I see what you mean. It seems they really want everyone to believe it's easy to play a ProV1 for any game. And I know sometimes regardless of skill you can play it, but that even may be deceiving because there might be a better ball out there. Based off their advertising I almost feel the NXT line is more a punchline than something they take serious. Which is odd because I think a lot of the "titleist" non touring pros could benefit from a ball more suited to their skill level, imo golfers like me.
On your second point... I think the same. I wish some balls would just stay the same. Seems like it's the drive to not be one upped by another company and almost like there is a pressure from the industry (consumers and competitors) to improve. I don't think people understand at times the benefit to having consistancy in their golf ball. I fall into the trap all the time. I would love to see a company just keep a successful ball out there and see how it fares. Even if they change the packaging. But even that could change perception. Aye. Lol.

Yoccos,
I agree with most of this. I dont think its necessarily an indication that the new ball is inferior at all. Just maybe not right for that level.
I also always wonder why improve or change. Why not keep the "train rolling".
