5.0 out of 5 stars The Penta is Pentabulous!, July 28, 2010
This review is from: TaylorMade Penta TP Golf Balls (1 Dozen) (Sports)
I used to play the TP Red and they replaced it with this ball. I got them as a prize in a scramble and was very pleasantly surprised when I started playing them. The hit very well from any club. Plenty of distance (I hit my driver over 310 and I didn't lose a yard), very forgiving on mishits, and they stop dead on the green even on low trajectory shots with my hybrid Adams A3 3-5 Irons. I plan to start playing these full time now that I have fallen completely in love with these. I only wish they were a tad bit less expensive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Penta reporting for duty !!!, September 28, 2010
This review is from: TaylorMade Penta TP Golf Balls (1 Dozen) (Sports)
I am really starting to like this ball. The overall performance is simply terrific. My normal drives from the tee box play a strong hook and now with the Penta my tee shots are on the fairway. I was determined to stop playing other golf balls besides my Z-star, but I knew the Z star was not giving me enough spin around the green. I tend to find myself chipping alot off the fringe and my first chip shot with the Penta landed 2 inches from the hole, something I never did with my other golf balls. Somehow it seems this ball is intuitive because it does what you ask it to do. It almost seems to be very forgiving too....I can't explain it any futher until you try it out for yourself....trust me.
I do notice however that it seems a little clunky or thick, but I think with time that will go away. What I am after is lower scores and more confidence on the tee and around the greens. Regarding putting, the Penta truly shines in giving me a true, muted, and straight putt with my... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Best ball I've played, March 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: TaylorMade Penta TP Golf Balls (1 Dozen) (Sports)
This ball is the best I've ever played. It is really soft around the greens and is responsive to each different club. On off center shots it goes around the same distance, if not a little less. The ball is long off the tee and has little spin, but has a lot of spin with the wedges. I will never switch to another ball and am hooked on these. I do hope the price goes down a little, but overall the price is fair.
