I’ve been a prov1 guy for years and it always seemed to fit my game nicely. Then I switched to the prov1X ended up liking the feel and felt like i had more control so I’ve had them as my go to (with a brief experiment with the tp5x) and haven’t looked back. However. I played a round earlier this week with a prov1 left DOT…… Long story short i threw my back out right before Father’s Day weekend and ended up laid out on the couch unable to move and watching every shot of the us open. And I say that because i rolled into this solo round with zero expectations and a questionable back. So instead of grabbing a fresh sleeve of ole reliables. I just grabbed into the found balls pocket I haven’t cleaned out in a month and just decided to roll the dice. After a surprising 38 on the front I realized that this prov1 felt different than even regular prov1’s and thought it might be a left dash or something weird. That’s when I noticed the left dot. And after a quick google search I Realized there’s not much info on them and was hoping someone here would know the story, and/or maybe point me in the direction of something that’s similar. Because I. Felt like it spun less off the tee but still checked up on the greens without too much effort. Any info would be appreciated, because as a true gear Heaux. It was clearly the ball that led to this solid stretch and for those of you wondering at home. Yes. My back got tight on 12 I pumped this ball into the water and had to limp back into the clubhouse with a regular prov1 and no magic left.

“Titleist ProV1 "Left Dot". This is a CPO option typically reserved for tour players. It's a slightly lower spinning lower trajectory ProV1. Not as firm or low spinning as "left dash".” “the left dot will fly lower and spin less than standard Pro V1 but compared to AVX will have more spin in the short game, say 100 yards or so in. ”

ProV1 left DOT?

The question is, how does one go about getting a left dot? left dash prov1xs are readily available but don't know how to get my hands on left dot.

Eddie I can tell you there’s my one sitting in the bottom of a pond thanks to Donald Ross down here in GA. Other than that. I either picked it up here or at Amelia National. Next one I come across. I’ll send ur way. Because I think I lot should be a staple. Like a left dash.

totally makes sense because that’s what my brain thought I felt. Which brings me back to my original opinion. It’s clearly the ball and not me

Jaybananapantsarthur

I've read it was the precursor to the technology that made it into the 2017 ProV1 ball. Not that those are easy to come by but likely easier than left dot.

Jaybananapantsarthur Maybe I should go pull out one of the dozen from 2017 I have sitting in the corner collecting dust.

Hmmm....which of the SC ones were released in 2017???

Jaybananapantsarthur Ain't that the truth

Jaybananapantsarthur

Cdnrockies oh damn, forgot I have those things sitting around somewhere most likely. I have a problem that extends beyond irons.

That's what I was thinking too...I may have a couple dozen that have never been played...and was likely going to unload them...but would give a sleeve or 6 a whirl if they're quality.

I think I played the original TP5s or Chrome Softs that year...lol.

Seems these would fit the bill.

I’m telling you. If u have them. Throw them in the random assortment ball pocket in ur bag and when ur tired of losing a sleeve of your go to balls. Give them a shot and you'll both be impressed and surprised.

or send them to me and I’ll lose them for you. IDC. We can consider it an offering to Donald Ross and favorable views to the golf gods. If you then shoot a career round. We might be onto something.
