The scenery of the property and the wonderful design make for an enjoyable day regardless of the quality of play."https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125681Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:54:13 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:f96c03f2-8941-4186-9b2a-6df540506d93Rick V., Team Titleist Staff0Marc described the performance of the 388 prototype (Pro V1) off the tee: "I found that I had similar carry numbers but significantly better roll out numbers leading to some much needed additional distance."https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125680Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:54:11 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:e42fcd71-cfca-41eb-88c4-33b7ef784aceRick V., Team Titleist Staff0A flighted wedge approach from Jacob with the 388 prototype golf ball.https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125679Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:54:08 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:795590f2-1b81-4618-8186-29511886bf21Rick V., Team Titleist Staff0Eltoria off the tee, just after impact. After the round Eltoria reported, "I gained a few more yards on all my clubs, and was still able to get the same performance around the greens with it. The proto 388 felt very similar to the Pro V1x left dash off the driver and irons, but it was a lot softer coming off the putter. The proto 388 with the TSR3 driver is a dangerous combination!"https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125678Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:54:06 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:f67f1116-0cf5-422c-b16b-d7660155fa4dRick V., Team Titleist Staff0No shortage of local wildlife at Caledonia.https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125677Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:54:04 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:729ed62b-98b9-458b-934f-eeebfaa675c3Rick V., Team Titleist Staff0Another picturesque course scenic from Nick.https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125676Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:54:02 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:b2dfe829-b832-44fa-9eb4-a177bcf0effbRick V., Team Titleist Staff0Nice grouping!

Marc had this to say about the long game performance of the 388 prototype: "With the longer clubs I found that the ball spun slightly less, which was a benefit to me, adding distance with a noticeable increase in accuracy."https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125673Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:53:56 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:f650b4d2-ad34-4e72-b08b-0cee581a400dRick V., Team Titleist Staff0Jacob echoed some of Marc's impressions on the performance of the 388 prototype: "The ball performed very well with an additional 10-15 yards in distance off the tee. I found that the ball is also nearly a half club longer with all the irons."https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125672Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:53:54 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:7111dd8f-d3bc-4b1e-849c-b77259162823Rick V., Team Titleist Staff0A penetrating iron shot from Eltoria. "I felt like the trajectory was lower and more penetrating because the proto 388 seemed to have less spin, compared to the current Pro V1," Eltoria said. "Long game spin was awesome for me because it seemed to lower my spin. I gained 5 yards on all my irons and was still able to hold greens."https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125671Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:53:52 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:b31be86d-0711-4dac-ac15-f50babd88f02Rick V., Team Titleist Staff0Some maiden grass in the foreground in this beautiful shot from Nick. More on Caledonia from Jacob: "The golf course is special because along with being Mike Strantz's first solo design the course is typically in fantastic shape where every hole could be the signature hole."https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125670Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:53:49 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:71de6001-4587-4df6-804d-fe20949c1666Rick V., Team Titleist Staff0Marc takes dead aim on a par-3. "It was a unique experience to be one of the first to try out the new Pro V1," Marc said. "We do not actually get many opportunities to get together and walk a casual round with our fellow professionals. Our whole group really enjoyed the experience and are very proud to be ambassadors for Titleist."https://www.titleist.com.my/teamtitleist/team-titleist/m/caledonia_validation_b_2023/125669Fri, 14 Apr 2023 12:53:46 GMT9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:b4158fc3-f9f5-4ccb-b464-36b88b413a75Rick V., Team Titleist Staff0Bragging rights were on the line as Eltoria barely missed this birdie bid. "What I liked most about the proto 388," Eltoria said, "was that it lowered my spin. I gained a few more yards on all my clubs, and was still able to get the same performance around the greens with it."
