In May of 2017 Golf Digest rated the different brands of golf balls now available. They start the article by saying "Any ball that helps your short game should top your list." Here's what they had to say about the Titleist offerings:
Pro V1/V1x $40/dozen. A new dimple design on the four-piece V1x promotes a higher trajectory, and the revamped three-piece V1 comes with a reformulated core for less spin.
NXT Tour $35. The ionomer-blend cover helps the ball feel soft, but the large dual core and its soft inner core are the real technological story. The result is a higher ball flight with less spin and more distance for the longer clubs.
NXT Tour S $35. This two -piece companion to the NXT Tour features a softer version of Titleist's ionomer-blend cover for those who want a little extra spin on short-game shots. The lower-compression core means shots through-out the bag will feel slightly softer.
Velocity $27. Its reputation as Titleist's distance ball long established, the current version offers a new focus on feel, thanks to a thinner cover. Still, the larger, more resilient core powers distance, and a high launch helps iron shots land at a steeper, green-holding angle.
DT Trusoft $27. It's soft with low spin but still has approach-shot control.
