    Seen these cheap around the shops and online.

    Anyone here tried them out?

    Online reviews seem quite good.

    Are they the cosmetic blemish ones?

    I've bought some and think they are really good. As soft as the top balls like the proV. I had one for 18 holes and it didnt scuff

    Hi big,
    I play with these a lot, nice length off the tee and really soft feel for chipping and putting
    these are cheap as well at the mo

    Highly recommend them, for me the FG Tours relative to PRO V1 are slightly longer off the driver, similar spin & yardage with irons, and better spin/control around the greens.

    Off the putter, they feel/sound softer, which is what I like, but others may not like that.

    Think I'll pick up a box of the blemish ones and try them.

    Used the Srixon Z Star XV last year

    Trying to decide on a ball for next year. Hadn't considered the Wilson's but price is appealing and feedback is good

    If you've used Z-star XV/Pro v1x in the past then I would guess the FG tour x would be most similar, but you've read the reviews so you've probably already figured that out.

    Don't think you'll lose anything in performance if you choose the Wilsons. As I said I really like the FG tours for chipping & (especially) putting, but it's probably a marginal call between most brands 3-piece urethane covered balls

    Great value for money ball - doesn't quite have the stopping power of a ProV and isn't the longest off the tee but can be got for a 1/3 of the price. Bought 10doz last year :D
