- I've narrowed down my search for a new ball to 2 options from @OnCoreGolf: The Elixr and the Vero X2. In today's video I'm taking them on the course in a head to head battle to see which ball performs the best for me

I have been playing the Vero X2 for 5 months. With the purchase of a Ping G430 SFT Driver the X2 is the straightest Golf Ball I have every hit. My Evnroll2V putter loves the feel on the greens too. Thank you OnCore and your engineering and commitment to better golf!!!
Thanks for sharing!!
I am leaning towards X2 for the softer feel even though you haven’t been able to take advantage of it on the short game. Flight and distance control seems very good with the X2. The Elixr is giving a little more pop and your short game is on point with it as well.
It seems like you enjoy the X2 flight and distance a lot more, but your overall/short game with the Elixr was just too good to not think about when deciding. I personally would want to see the Elixr but feel like you'll choose the X2
UPDATE!!
OnCore has given me a promo code to share with y’all. Use the code TEAMAJ and save 15% off the entire OnCore site🎉

First off, shout out to South Hampton and their greens! One of my favorite course to play!
Now to the nuts and bolts, although the Elixr performed well, you undoubtedly prefer the ball flight and feel of the X2… you’ll be choosing X2.
Greens were 👌🏽
As a proud #TeamOnCore golfer who plays the Elixr on my YT & social channels (Joe: Project 56, a 10-year long term golf & health reclamation project), I have a feeling that your preference would be the VERO X2 based on flight style. But really, you can't go wrong with either OnCore Golf product. Great series!
I've been playing Elixr since ~2017 and as long as OnCore keep making them, I'll be playing them, they're the perfect ball for me. For you? Well, based on the way you play the long game, and the fact your short game is good to the point it doesn't really matter what ball you're playing from 80-in, I'm calling X2 for you. Again, great shout out to OnCore, in the DTC market they're by far the most underrated IMO. Keep the vids coming, cheers!
I love these videos on the ball test. Really good testing and explanation of what you are seeing/feeling. I am thinking the Vero X2, primarily because of the feel.
Good on ya!
@@andrewjensengolf Thanks for doing the videos
Vero X2! All day! But man you played great with the Elixr. Selling me on the X2 though.
I found a Vero X1 at the end of the year and played 18 holes on course and probably another 18 on a simulator during the winter. I loved it, would like to check out the X2, but I just picked up some lightly used TP5's for a great deal soo i'll be playing those for the foreseeable future. I would like to order a dozen though and test them out.
I think you're going with the X2. When you are dialed around the green that seems to be when you play your best golf. You seem to always drive the ball well, so I think that extra feel around the green is more important in the long run. Love the videos Andrew!
Been playing the Elixr for 3 years. Really good ball. You? Elixr as the current dad golfer; the 4 years ago tour guy the x2😁
Been playing the Elixr for several years, absolutely love it! The feel for me with the short game doesn’t feel as firm as x2. I also believe Andrew with the results you had Elixr should be in your bag!
The score is favoring Elixor but your feel is all over X2. So you should take the latter. Thanks for the video
Thanks Denis!
Team ELIXR! Man, that short game is on 🔥. Fun series to watch. Glad you are enjoying the OnCore brand 🤙
I went through a similar test when I switched from the Taylormade TP5X to the Vice Pro Plus. I did a lot of short game shots, putting and then played 54 holes with each ball (not on the same day of course haha). I spent about 2 months testing and in the end I found that the Vice Pro Plus just worked a bit better for me (and the price was great). This was a really interesting series of videos you had on the OnCore balls, makes me want to get a dozen or 2 to try and compare haha.
It looks like the X2 is what you will end up with, but both balls seem to perform really well for you!
Love that process you took Adam! Yeah, give the X2 a try, would be interesting to see how it compares to your ball now!
@@andrewjensengolf I def will get myself some and compare!
Elixir. Love seeing these balls getting so much love. Living in western new york love seeing our hometown ball doing so good
Great evaluation Andrew. I'm hoping you pick the X2.
I did indeed!
Andrew. Great video and grind as always. Appreciate you doing these videos.
Well since I play the X1 right now and looking to graduate to the X2 I think the X2 is the way to go. Ball flight, distance and feel is all one awesome package with the X2.
The elixir spin around the green is a bit better but I think the other factors are a bit to speratic with the elixir. I would definitely say go with the X2. It is a great ball for "bad hits" also.
Keep up the great work brother.
Thanks Jay!
X2 I reckon. So interested to try these balls. Hard to get in Australia though. Can’t wait to hear more updates on your ball of choice
Going with Elixr thx
I've gotta say you'll go with X2 just based on the feel and distance you are getting with it. Both seem to be great balls! Great video as always!
X2 please!! Been in my own "find my new golf ball" search for over a year! Would love to see how they compare to Vice Pro Plus, Prov1/1x, TP5x, Sugar, Piper Gold, etc.
You said it best..Elixr just wants to find the bottom of the cup. Something to be said for that. Based you stated preferences the v2 is my guess for your ball of choice.
So I’m a 10 handicap and have played with OnCore for literally since their release of the OG titanium core. I’ve played the elixir for probably 2 years consistently. The x1 I’m on maybe my 3rd dozen and meh it’s ok. The number one thing I absolutely love about the elixir is that you can’t give enough power. The harder you hit it the better it performs. I’m an elixir guy.
Bought the Elixr off this video. Thanks the for the testing. I was looking for a better ball to play with this year and you sold me on On Core.
Love to hear that! Hopefully that promo code helped save a little room in the wallet too 👊🏼
X2 for sure. I started playing x1 this past summer. All the amateurs tournaments I play in no one heard of on core. Players I played with noticed how far and well it went in the wind. On driver and irons.
Still have a box of the old elixers ones... hard as a rock lol. Should try the new ones vs old ones. x2 probaly though if softer feel
Yeah, from what I hear, the 2022 upgrade is night and day from the original Elixr
With no Iron Byron you have to take the good with the bad. Being a better golfer it would seem the X2 would be the likely choice and there in lies his conflict. The Elixer performed just as well which is a credit to On Core for making 2 first class balls that fit your level of play. I play Elixer and being an average golfer I am grateful that I can play a high performing ball and not pay retail prices. I am glad I've mad the choice to be on team On Core. He just proved how good both balls are.
Andrew always love your content! I say the Vero x2 for you brother! A player of your caliber and ball striking ability is going to benefit all around with the X2. I hope Oncore sees what we all do and put you on their Team!
Elixr! Putt for dough!
Also I live on this course, awesome to see it on the Tube
X2!! I’ve played the Elixr and it spins to much for me. Also it’s about 1/2 club shorter even on good swings with all my clubs.
Definitely going to give and X2 a go and see if it performs better.
Yeah too much spin will have your irons falling out of the air too soon, X2 might be magical for you then!
Elixr! Definitely
I once found a OnCore ball on the course. I loved it until I lost it in the water. I would love it to try the X2
I’m a feel player!!! (For a 7 handicap) hahaha. Gotta go with what felt the best X2!!!! I’m gonna order some tonight and try these boys out!! Keep up the videos man have loved watching your videos since the beginning.
Can't wait to hear what you think of them!
Just an average weekend golfer, but do love the softer feel of the Vero2. The Bills Mafia logo helps.
I believe you will be going with X2. It has a lot of the same characteristics as the tp5x. From flight to spin. It is more of the tour ball you like to play on an everyday basis.
Elixr!! Been my ball for 6 months and I have so much confidence in it.
Love to hear that!
Team elixir! I say that because you said it’s a little “harder” off of the face. I’d prefer a ball I can kinda feel off the face. I’ve played with softer golf balls and it has felt like nothing. It’s hard for me to gauge distance with super soft golf balls
I think you enjoyed playing the X2. I played the Elixr and thought it was a decent ball. I wouldn’t mind trying the X2
I feel like you will be going with the X2. Keep it rolling Andrew! Loving the content you'll bringing.
I think you will choose the Elixr. Excellent video Andrew!!
Elixr proving itself in this vid… especially with short game.
Love this testing series!!
Magnetic attraction to the cup!
I think you might go with the Elixr. Seems like you had more positive remarks about that one. I have tried the Elixr and X1 and really like them both.
I like the way you're keeping score based on the ball. Definitely plays a factor in which ball you're choosing.
AJ going X2 is the MOVE!!
A little birdy 🐦 told me your going to pick the X2! Can't go wrong with either tbh!
From the previous 2 videos I thought you were for sure going to go with X2 but now I think your gonna choose ELIXR all the way. Seems like your play on the course was much better with it and performs good and consistently for you.
Elixr! Definitely after how that wedge turned out off the downslope. We'll see how fast I can lose 6 dozen balls in the forest
I play the Elixer, and the X1 for the summer, I have not tried the X2 yet.
ELIXR is the ball for you. Most of us can drive, but when it comes to the short game there is just no substitute. ELIXR ALL the WAY. ELIXR = Bacon. Brining home the Bacon!!!
Sounds like you really like the X2, but if it was me and I had a chance to go 4 under vs 2 under, guess what I would choose? 😂 Elixir just out performed the X2, but it really does matter on the greens and off the short game. Tough decision
Vero X2 based off your flight and feel hitting it.
Drive for show, the putts, & the dough! Elixir is good, Vero is better! X2 it is!
Wait, 6 dozen ball giveaway?? Wow!
Good luck!!
Just joined the channel. Was wondering what kind of hats do you wear? I can’t find them on the Rhône website
they're Melin hats... and you get 20% off for being part of the team! melin.com/teamaj
From the first vid through this one… you’ve had more good things to say about the X2. I think the Elixr would be better for my game… but I’m older and slower than you 😂
What do you think: Elixr or Vero X2??
I am going to say you should choose Elixr. I think you likely will choose the X2, but should choose the Elixr.
X2 for sure
I’ll go with the underdog - elixir. Wish they had the green balls available for the 2022 version.
I think your going with Vero X2 mainly because it’s a softer feel and in the other video it preformed better on the tighter chip shots.
I feel like, even though the Elixir is scoring better, that the X2 is the ball to be chosen. My experience is the "harder" or firmer (Elixir) ball doesn't give the same feel as the softer (X2).
I did this same test a few days ago with the same balls lol. I personally like the Elixr, but I also like the short of the Vero X2. I went back and forth on which ball is better and I decided I would go with the Elixr. I think you will do the same and pick the Elixr.
I was multi-tasking while watching your video but did you alternate which ball you hit off the tee? The "second" golfer is typically better and was curious if it skewed your results. I love the TP5X and so I'm wondering if the Elixr is the comparable ball. As a weekend warrior, I'm always tweaking and I would be down for trying something new, especially if they save me a buck or two.
Elixr was white shot tracer and X2 was gold. If you’re a TP5x player, X2 would likely be the best ball to try out
@@andrewjensengolf Thanks Andrew for taking the time to respond!
I'm guessing Vero X2. Seems like you prefer the softer feel with wedges and around around the green. Awesome little series. Would love to see other non name brand ball tests like this.
X2 gang for sure. Has to feel good off the wedges or you will always regret it
Feel like you go with Elixir! Can't deny those results!!!!
Got to be X2. If you love the flight and shape in the air it means everything.
After watching up until the Par 5, I think you will choose the X2. Based on the feel and extra distance you get with it over the Elixr, I do believe that will be what you choose by the end of testing.
Good man!
VERO X2 LETS GO! Played the x1 and the elixer and liked both, but haven't hit the X2.
The Vero X2 is the way to go! I'm the perfect brand ambassador as I'm guaranteed to lose at least a dozen per round. Not only will my game improve from being chosen, but more people will know about the brand when they pick my shanks up 2 holes over.
Going x2 for sure. Even though the Elixr was trying super hard this video.
X2
You like the X2.
I like the Elixir.
Hopefully the discount code they gave me helps you stock up on some freshies!
TEAMAJ will save you 15% on your balls 👌🏼
believe it or not Elixr is a more spinny ball, but you will hit longer drives with the Vero X2 so it's amazing to have both options for what you want in a ball
I'm Team Elixr baby!
It would be cool to see how the new oncore xp stacks up
Working on that video as we speak… just need to play some rounds with it first. The numbers so far are impressive
I honestly believe you will go with the Elixr. I know score doesnt matter much, but i think it is the overall better ball for your game. It seems very reliable with what you need it to do. Either way it seems these balls are very good.
I personally like the Elixr. I think you might pick the X2 because of the feel, especially near the green
I think you are picking the X2, better bad shots. I have the Elixr balls, but may need to give the X2s a shot.
Use that promo code and test them out!!
Gonna guess elixir!!! Love the vids mate
I’m going with X2 Sir
Looks like you leaning toward the x2.. I am leaning toward free .. Cuz if it's free it's for me
I think you should play the X2 as you seem to like the flight better and more mentally aligned with it than the Elixr.
I'm going with the x2 based on the feel.
X2. You seemed to like it more even though you performed better with the Elixr.
X2!
Elixir for the win 🎉
I betting it will be the x2 but I do love my elixirs.
X2 for me after watching the other videos
I played the Vero X1 last season just switch to the elixir feels better with irons and new wedges
Love to hear that! Use the code TEAMAJ to save 15% when you need to replenish your stock next 🤙🏼
@@andrewjensengolf thank you very much will do
Also play pro, about to be testing the x2
Going to say you go with the x2!!
Vero X2!
I like the Vero 1. Thinking the 2 might be a little squirrelly for me. But still gonna try a box
I'm thinking 2 just because!
Use that promo code and save some cash! TEAMAJ
Your heart is with X2 so I’m saying X2!
I think that you will decide on the x2, I think coming into this, the x2 was your favourite.
I feel you will choose X2. A) you are commenting that Elixir seems clickier B)X2 seems generally longer off the tee for you
Can confirm
I also use the 2022 ELIXR, unfortunately my ball has never seen -4 in 8 holes. I’ve tried Vero x1, it just didn’t suit me. I’m a 14-15 handicap and I’m not good enough for a 4 piece ball, with ELIXR I feel like I can play a 3 piece urethane ball like Pro V1 for $20 less, even less when I bundle.
X2 seems to be a better overall fit for your game and swingspeed.
indeed!!
$20 difference I’d go with the elixir 😂
X2 all day!
Tough to turn down a ball that keeps finding the hole! I see the Elixr in your future
