    If you've been watching any golf on TV lately, you may have seen the newest content from Titleist, showcasing the new Pro V1 and Pro V1x in a way we've never seen them--from an FPV racing drone. And as you'll see in the video, this is real footage!

    Early in 2020, Titleist knew we wanted to film golf ball performance in a new way. It was difficult to even explain the idea for these shots, as no one had ever seen anything like what we were imagining. 

    After multiple rounds of testing and modifying with the racing drone and lens technology, we were able to find new ways to bring to life the precision aerodynamics, the longer distance, and the best performing golf balls to ever bear the Titleist script. 

    Hope you enjoy all the new content!

    One question... Did the ball hit the drone or the drone hit the ball?
    Either way, this is amazing. I can't wait until the tracking technology gets even better and better and this becomes part of the weekend tv coverage. Drones are clearly the future of golf coverage.

    Wow! That looks as if it was not only challenging, but a lot of fun. And it gives us golfers an amazing perspective on the flight of a ball. Thank you for the behind the scenes look.

    I saw these commercials and thought that has to be animated no way a drone could do that. Well guess I’m wrong.

    So awesome. Glad I wasn't in the commercial; the drone would have flown directly into a building.

    When I first saw the commercial, I was trying to decide if it was CGI or real. That was pretty awesome! Hope there are more coming.
