I spent two hours on the launch monitor at my local Pro Golf Discount store. I took a sleeve of the original TA2|LNG and the rep there give me a sleeve of the new TA2-LNG.

I can't fully comment on spin and real-world conditions as it's been too nasty for golf the past few weeks, but what I can contribute right now is that these balls are definitely hotter than the original TA2's or the One's. Here is some results from the launch monitor:
TA2|LNG - Avg swing speed 104, ball speed 148. My most optimal launch angle was 12 degrees and I had about 240-250 carry and about 13 yds of roll.

TA2-LNG - Avg SS 105, ball speed 154. I averaged all distances using the same 12* launch angle and gained some yardage of carry but had about the same roll. I was carrying 258-263 and had 12-15 yards of roll.

This testing was using a Nike Tour 400cc 9* w/ a Fujikura 757 in stiff. I plan on adding my opinion of it's green-side performance once I can get back on the course :wink:

Could you tell if the ball felt firmer at all. That is one thing I prefer about the ONE over the last TA2/LNG. The ONE seems to have a little softer feel, especially off the putter and wedges.
Thanks
