Titleist Tour Soft Golf Balls (One Dozen)

Product Information

When it comes to the golf ball, there are a variety of models that do a variety of things. Whether you are a new player to the game who is looking for models that will just go forward, an improver who is wanting one of the best mid price golf balls for their bag, or perhaps a single figure handicapper who wants one of the best premium golf balls to add to their arsenal, there are different golf balls for everybody. It should go without saying that Tour Speed isn’t the top-selling ball in the Titleist lineup. Its numbers are closer to AVX which is to say it isn’t a juggernaut but it’s enough that it would be the top-selling ball in some competitors’ lineups. It has an audience that Titleist believes is growing. Better still (for Titleist, anyway), the Tour Speed converts aren’t moving down from Pro V1; they’re moving up from an ionomer-covered ball or moving over from competitors’ offerings. If you buy a launch monitor to measure and learn what your swing speed is, then you can buy a specific golf ball that matches your speed.A good rule of thumb is that you want a compression rating that matches your swing speed in miles per hour (MPH).

Use thegolf ball compression chartabove to learn and understand the compression value of all of the top balls today. On our gauge, the Titleist Tour Soft has an average compression of 67. That’s all of one point softer than the prior generation, which suggests compression targets didn’t change from one generation to the next. The Tour Soft qualifies as medium firmness across the market as a whole. What’s likely most relevant is that it’s a bit softer than most “soft” urethane offerings but considerably firmer than the softest ionomer offerings. Diameter and Weight One-piece: This basic ball tends to be durable and inexpensive. Best suited to beginners, driving ranges, and crazy-golf courses, it does not give the most distance. So you will rarely see it used in actual play.

The feel off the club face was definitely a little softer than my usual Pro V1 x, but the softer feel was welcomed. I felt like they looked quite high off of the face than what I’m used to seeing but carry wise I can’t fault the numbers.

The core is to a golf ball what an engine is to a car. Along those lines, the bigger this core is, the more speed you can put into it. With the Tour Soft golf ball, Titleist introduces its largest-ever ball core. A golf ball is not immune to the elements of the day. Keep these factors in mind when you are select the right golf ball. Weather Conditions Let’s get the negatives out of the way first, I struggled with the Callaway Supersoft with a driver in hand. This has a soft compression core, which is meant to promote high launch and low spin, but I also think it’ll work best for players who have slower swing speeds. The original Titleist Tour Speed golf ball launched in August of 2020. Given the cadence of the industry, a late May release might suggest Titleist is coming to market a little early with Version 2.0. The thing is … This Tour Speed isn’t really a Version 2.0. According to Titleist, it’s not technically new. It’s reformulated which I suppose could make it Version 1.5. But, early to market? Definitely not. For Titleist, the reality is closer to just in time. Five-piece: The latest development in the golf ball department, this one also has multiple layers to enhance performance. Besides, it also provides a great deal of spin separation. Of course, the more optimized performance comes at a much heftier price. SpinTour Speed Golf Balls from Titleist are engineered to deliver exceptional distance off the tee and a responsive feel around the greens. The Tour Speed features a high-speed core, a proprietary thermoplastic urethane cover, and a 346 quadrilateral dipyramid dimple design, all working together to provide impressive ball speed, low spin, and maximum control. Experience the perfect balance of distance and responsiveness with Titleist Tour Speed golf balls. Three-piece: These golf balls are usually softer, offering more spin. So it becomes more effortless for golfers to control the ball’s flight. The multiple layers also allow for the creation of more spin-separation. That means a customized performance.
