To be honest my swing is in the mid 90s with the driver and I have found the best balls for my carry are the softer golf balls such as Callaway Supersoft or the Taylor Made Soft Response. For me I lose distance using a Titleist ProV or other high end ball as they are usually somewhat harder.
Will see how you do in your sixty's pal. I used to be able to hit 300. Now at 63 I still hit 250 but everyone can't. I'll save my LOL for you when you are 60+.
Im a senior golfer. I have been playing this ball for over a year. I get more distance and lands soft on the greens. It's great for seniors that have lost a little swing speed. I don't play in tournaments so it's always in my bag. It also costs less. Win win.
As a 71 yr old geezer living in The Villages, Fl ( or Golfers Heaven), I’ve played all brands of golf balls in the last 10 years, and the UNDISPUTED LONGEST ,STOPPING QUICKLY on the greens is the MG SENIOR golf ball… FOLKS this is the best ball to play
I’m confused. 1) why are they illegal ? Weight was good, size was good and core looked fine 2) They performed better than prov1 at low swing speed? Why isn’t everyone using them. Unless they cost a fortune

Would like to see this test comparing the MG and a Callaway super soft, a ball made for slower, swing speeds and seniors The pro V one is made for pros and people with swing speeds over 100 mph.
Yeah, club and a half is accurate. It adds ten off the tee - and 6 off the irons. Add them up, and you are a club to club and a half closer. Cannot wait until I am a senior golfer so I can use them!
If you launch a new ball to market you can bet Titlist will do everything it can to destroy it, including going to the USGA and The R&A. MG had a C4 ball just as good as any Pro V1 and Titleist destroyed their manufacturing deal a couple years ago.
I wish he would cut open a few more across different axis locations to see if MG Senior balls frequently have this situation or if it was just the first one he cut open. He could mark on the ball where the cutting starts and where it ends to test your hypothesis also. Good point!
Why use v1x? Recommendation is 100 clubs speed +.....v1 will be similar to mg for you but strait? I hit slightly faster with 90mph, can't hit a long Iron with the x at my speed...
Yeah, I've got about 5 dozen found Prov1x in my collection. Can't use them because with my lower swing speed it's like hitting rocks. Regular Prov1 are OK though, and the AVX are a great choice too.
I bought a dozen a couple of weeks ago...before I saw your video. I've played one 9-hole round with them. I found that I did hit it further off the tee. Probably 10-12 yards on average. Also hit the irons longer, too. Probably 5-8 yards on average.
I find that generally 2 piece balls go further than 3/4 piece balls and as you don’t normally get as much spin they do tend to be a little more forgiving.
For sure. I swing around 120mph with my driver, and I still prefer SuperSofts over premium balls because I get too much spin otherwise, and I can nuke the SuperSofts long and straight
hit a Desperado bill a few times....like hitting a rock, very unpleasant. Not worth it for a few xtra yards. Wilson Ultra is a great ball for both distance and feel. As lively as a Srixon and for 1/3 the price.
The extra thickness on one side will make a difference when putting as if you put it in a bowl of water you will see it will be out of balance for putting by flouting to one side all the time if you mark the top of golf ball
@@JohnSmith-mx8wp they don't need to float but most of them do to a point but what you do is to mark top top part of the ball and drop it back in if the mark keeps going to the top it is out of balance you will be surprised to how many are out even pro-V1
People get a medium sized bowl of water and add epsom salts until a golf ball will float in the water. Then you gently place the ball in the water, spinning it as you place it in. When it stops spinning you take out the ball, dry it, and mark with a Sharpie the spot on the ball that was facing up with a dot. You repeat this a few times with the same ball and see if the same side or same point keeps coming up to the top or if different locations come to the top. If the same spot keeps coming to the top, then the ball is considered out of balance and has a “heavier” side and a “lighter” side. It’s debatable how much of a difference an out of balance ball might make when putting or hitting a full shot. I think it could make a slight difference, predominantly during putting on the last few feet (or maybe just inches) of a putt as the golf ball slows down and its forward momentum is waning.
Interesting findings, but I do question the 250-yard marketing threshold. One average that I found for ALL age golfers was 225 yards. Seniors checked in at between 185 and 200. So, MG is going after ALL golfers, not just seniors. And, relatively speaking, senior results would be lower (distance-wise) than a younger, precision striker such as you. Also, a scary thought is how many players will swing even harder, figuring a little extra can only enhance the MG results. Another factor I question is durability. I know nothing about golf ball construction, but when you cut it open, it seemed as though the thin shell could be more prone to nicks and cutting. Does that make sense? Again, I don't know how golf balls are made.
You are correct on the Senior distance. I am average Golfer and 54 Years Old I normally get a Carry Distance of 210 Yards with roll out average of 230 Yards on Average.
Hi Matt....I always enjoy your videos and wish you the best with your channel...I have a request...I play in a group for fun...We are all seniors with the oldest being 83...I'm 75 and at times, I'm out driven by some of the younger guys in the group...I recently read about a small golf company which makes a ball, the MG Senior ball...The ball is not USGA conforming...Their claims are that with a slow swing speed,
As a biology major... the one suggestion I'd make is to hit blind... have a outside observer know if he was hitting the mg or the pro v1... and mix them in... and have them debadged... but... for a youtube video... this was solid science.
Honestly I don’t like my driver going high or over 300 yards. My miss is a left pull in my release that can make a 320 yard shot not findable. Let alone a 345 yard shot.
Most golfers would benefit playing a softer two or three piece ball anyway. Most golfers should never play the prov1x. The newer one is even harder for the pros that have faster swing speeds. I don't even like the x anymore now that they are harder and I have above average speed. I'm not fast enough to play the x. Always get fit even for your ball.
Yeah, I've got about 5 dozen found Prov1x in my collection. Can't use them because with my lower swing speed it's like hitting rocks. Regular Prov1 are OK though, and the AVX are a great choice too.
A two piece ball travelling further than a three piece ball. Not exactly a groundbreaking technological discovery. The difference is spin and control around the greens, which is why pros and low handicappers prefer a three, four or five piece golf ball.
'Im 76, GHIN 14. I played the MG Senior a lot last summer and gave them to many men and women of equal or better skill.. ALL players gained a minimum 0f 15-20 yards. Of course when attempting to qualify for the US Open, I switched to a USGA approved ball. "You're welcome". =. ) B. Watson. PS: Canadian glaciers move faster than my swing.
I'm 57 years old and just played in a tournament against much younger guys who were outdriving me with a 2 iron. I mean, I hit my drives between 230-250, but it was an endless embarrassment being 60+ yards behind these guys off the tee. I shot 77, and beat all but one guy, but still, it's deflating having 7 iron into greens while they are hitting wedges.
77 is a great score at any age Sir.! What were your numbers in your younger years? How much distance have you lost off of the tee? How much did distance affect your score?
Dear Mr. Short game. I am disappointed with this ball, on several accounts. First, I bought this ball, because I am a low velocity hitter. My club head speed is about 75 mph. I typically hit the ball about 180 yds. So, I should benefit from this ball, but instead lost about 30 yds of distance when hitting it. It also felt hard off the face. Second when you cut it open, we saw that the core is not centered, but is offset. Like a hard-boiled egg, when you cut it open, the yolk is off to one side. Therefore it can't possibly have symmetrical flight characteristics, and should have failed the PGA symmetry test. So, maybe I was hitting it wrong? Maybe I need to find the seam? Can you test it again, in-seam and across the seam? Right now for me the best ball is the Calloway Chromesoft. It gives me 20 yards extra.
Whatever u still got to hit the shot and the distance whatever if u need a s 7 iron or a 6 iron and u gotta make a putt or two putts or three putts or even 20 putts is called relax and have a nice day at the golf course the ball is just a fraction of the game brother be nice and respect ur elders Lol ❤😂😊
I’m t this measuring on simulator actually precise? Aren’t those balls that much different that they behave differently even for the rest of the flight not just few first meters?
You're right. I'm 75 and my clubhead speed is 67. I can still compete with others in my club. Simple. Learn to hit it straight and forget about distance. Straight beats long every day of the week. And twice on Sundays.
Someone told me that if you put oil on the face of a driver, you will hit the ball straighter and longer....Any truth to that, would be fun to test that out.
Oil will work, so will vaseline. It works in the same way as a "professional" punch. An amateur will pull back immediately after impact. Likewise, a "clean" golf hit means that the ball almost immediately leaves the face. A pro fighter will leave the punch in contact for just a few milliseconds longer, which allows time for the shockwave to penetrate more, giving a harder hit. Likewise, if you vaseline the club face, it allows just a couple more milliseconds for the shockwave to react with the ball, resulting in higher ball speed. The tiny difference in weight distribution from the substance that transfers to the ball plus the initial "stickiness" reduces spin drastically; so if your club path would normally have caused slice or hook from the spin angle, a lot of that is mitigated, resulting in far less cross spin and a straighter shot.
You should now test them playing at normal swing speed to see if “non target” players can get any benefit!
Agree! What happens when you put the swing speed at 100 mph?
A friend of mine with a 105 swing speed hit them over 20 yards longer.
@@alarmservicepros god I wish I didn't see this comment... this is going to be expensive
This is the best high detailed video I’ve seen with a sim, normally not this in depth I love it 👍
I found a couple of these balls on the course and was very impressed with them.
Reminds me of the 80's where serious golfers would be hitting balata and we amateurs were hitting Top-Flite rockets! Pros were allowed to switch back then, rocket off the tee, balata approach.
They couldn’t switch balls on the fairway. They usually would hit a top flight on a longer par 3 then switch to balata for other holes
I use these balls. They're great, gives you extra distance and the price is right!!!

The MG golf ball does give you more distance. I've been playing with it for two years now at less than half the price of ProV1.

MG golf's Tour C4 ball was excellent. Played as good as the Pro V1. Not sure if they still make it.
Moving up a tee box will get you more yards, lol.
Longer balls AND shorter tees wtf? Damn greedy seniors!

Good video Matt. As usual.
What's the compression number.
We’ll see…I just ordered mine at Amazon for $29 one dozen.
So how did those work out?
With the swing speed of 85 to 90 you need to compare with the ProV1 (not the ProVIx which is designed for much higher swing speeds).
Please find somone to buy Pleican Bay North Golf Course, Daytona 7:22
When we were kids we had Super Balls, a plastic/rubber ball that bounced like crazy.

Thanks Matt....You've confirmed my experience with the ball...
Please hit some wedge shots to get an idea on short gane spin?
I picked up some of these at goodwill. Ended up liking them a ton. I’m buying some since I lost them already 😅.
Why are you testing them in a simulator? They work with the wind given their dimple pattern.
Where can I get “mr SG” stickers from like your logo on the wall?
Does testing of a ball inside give you the best info? Wouldn’t outside give you a better answer?

Seniors hitting under 250, what about us Seniors hitting under 200?
That's just marketing. They are trying to open the ball up to more potential customers. Most seniors aren't hitting anywhere near 250.
Maybe another vid using the standard MCG golf ball vs. the Titleist?
I know a lot of seniors that are gonna play any ball they find onthe course cause they know it don't make a crap ha😂
Now if they also spin/stop good on wedges they might be a good replacement ball. I'm also curious on the price and how they compare to other balls.
