The Penta has become the ball for me. Great all-around performance – distance, feel and spin. They are also very durable.

I tryed the taylormade tp penta ball for 2weeks. I am a 2 handicap with 155 mph ballspeed. i lost around 10 yards off my driver compared to titliest prov1x. these balls have a super soft feel and not quite the greenside spin that i”m used to from titliest balls, where they hit is where they stay on the green.

In the past I have never been a big believer that a ball of similar type can have so much effect on your game between the different brands. I sort of thought a balata is a balata or a rock is a rock no matter who makes it. I used the Penta for 3rd time today. (1st time in a comp) I usually lose 1 or 2 balls per round but have not lost one yet. First 2 rounds were 90 and 89. I had an 83 today and I am a 24 handicapper! I am usually around 95-100 almost consistently. With the penta I immediately noticed the straightness of the flight. My drives usually tail slightly right at the end. I do hit a decent long ball which usually makes most people I play with think I am a burgular till they see me approach the green. I have no short game. I did find this ball stops well for me and it gave me confidence to be committed to my chip shots. My short game is improving dramatically and I can only put it down to this ball. I think (hope) I will not be in the 20′s for too long. Great ball, would recommend to any high handicapper.

I’ve tried the Pentra and it feels really nice. I Played a very narrow course this week and for the most part went where I wanted to. I’d say to someone that loses a lot of balls, stick to the TP Red (if you can still find them) the Pentra is pretty high priced ball for anyone that loses them in the water or bushes. Still, Great ball, and I’ll keep using them. Used only two Pentra balls the whole round. Very durable.

This is an excellent review. You’ve made me want to try this ball and I definitely will.

I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised! I’m making the switch as soon as they hit the stores, which stinks because the golf ball expense has now gone from $22 to $45.. Ah well..

I am excited to try these balls although I am not sure if I need a 5 piece ball! You know that I am an equipment geek, and I am always looking for the best technology to help my game. My favorite ball right now is the Bridgestone 330-RX, but I am willing to give the Penta a try.
