What Golf Balls Do the Pros Use? Top 100 PGA Tour Players (2023 update)

Graeme Hay

Written by Graeme Hay | Last Updated: 18/04/2024

Golfing Focus infographic showing the percentage of golf balls made by the relevant manufacturers used by the top 100 PGA Tour pros

The golf ball is the only piece of equipment that all golfers, pros and amateurs, men and women, high handicap and low handicap, all use for every shot without fail.

Making sure you choose the right one for your game is therefore clearly important and given their focus on gaining whatever marginal gains they can wherever they can it makes sense for us to take a look at what golf balls the best pro golfers in the world choose to play with.

So we took the best golfers on the PGA Tour and did a detailed analysis of the golf balls they are currently using.

Titleist golf balls are the most used by the top 100 PGA Tour pros with 71% playing a Pro V1, Pro V1x or Pro V1 Left Dot. Callaway and Srixon balls are each used by 10 players with TaylorMade balls used by 7. Bridgestone balls are chosen by 2 pros. In total 11 golf ball models made by these 5 brands are used by this group.

We didn’t stop there though.

We did a bunch more work to look at which specific ball each pro in the top 100 is using, discovered who is playing soft or hard golf balls, and analyzed whether anything has changed in terms of what the pros consider to be the best golf ball since we last carried out this study a couple of years back.

And just to be complete we also took a look at the question of whether the pros are using the same golf balls as us lowly amateurs or whether they get ‘special’ versions made just for them by the big golf ball brands!

What Titleist Golf Ball Do the Pros Use?

When we did this analysis two years ago Titleist was again the dominant golf ball brand with just over two-thirds using their balls and in 2023 that dominance has increased with 71% of the top 100 players on the PGA Tour now using a Titleist golf ball.

That is a whopping seven times more than the next most played balls made by Srixon and Callaway whose models are only played by 10 golfers each among the best players on the tour.

Titleist Pro V1’s are used by 38 of the top 100 PGA Tour pros with 29 choosing the firmer and slightly longer playing Pro V1x. A further 4 players, including Tony Finau and Cameron Young use Titleist’s Pro V1 left dot ball, which is designed to be a lower-flying, lower spinning version of the Pro V1 for long game shots.

A complete list of which Titleist golf balls the leading 100 PGA pros are using is listed below and includes the majority of the very best golfers on the tour such as world no.1 Scottie Scheffler, Will Zalatoris, Max Homa, Billy Horschel, Viktor Hovkand and Kevin Kisner all of whom keep a Pro V1 in play.

Stars such as Patrick Cantlay, Matt Fitzpatrick, Justin Thomas, Jordan Speith, and 2023 US Open champion Wyndham Clark meanwhile choose the Pro V1x as does Adam Scott who has also been known on occasion to use and win multiple tournaments with the Pro V1 Left Dot ball.

Titleist has claimed the title of the #1 ball in golf since the 1949 US Open at Medinah Country Club and it seems based on these numbers they have good reason to keep on making such a claim as it continues to be played by more PGA Tour players than all the other golf ball brands combined and multiplied by 2!

And for those of you not familiar with the Titleist Pro V1 Left Dot there is good reason for that.

It has never been on retail shelves and was only being sold for a limited time until recently almost exclusively through Titleist.com.

We discuss the question of whether pros use special golf balls in more depth below but in brief the Pro V1 Left Dot is what is called a Custom Performance Option or CPO golf ball which is a ball that is only available to you if you play on one of the pro tours or if you are one of a very select few elite amateur golfers!

What TaylorMade Golf Ball Do the Pros Use?

Not everyone uses the same golf ball on the PGA Tour of course and a few big names opt for versions of balls produced by the other big manufacturers, including Taylor Made.

7 of the top 100 PGA Tour pros use either the TaylorMade TP5 or TP5x golf balls. Collin Morikawa plays the TP5 as does Justin Rose. Rory McIlroy chooses the higher launching and lower spinning TP5x alongside Tommy Fleetwood who uses the Pix version to help his putting alignment. Rickie Fowler is another TP5x Pix user.

Although Fowler sat outside the top 100 at the time of our analysis it has been great to see him back to his best, challenging at the top of leaderboards, and the Pix version of both the TP5 and TP5x golf balls that he co-developed with TaylorMade has actually helped Tommy Fleetwood solve a key issue with his putting.

Assuming originally that the pixelated orange and black markings were simply a funky design feature added as a nod to Fowler’s alma mater – Oklahoma State University – Fleetwood discovered after discussions with TaylorMade that the purpose of the triangle design was really there to assist with alignment of putts.

Fleetwood had been struggling on the greens with the issue of where he thought he was aiming compared to where he was in reality lined up being a fraction off, and after some testing realized that the Pix markings, designed to roll end over end and create a pathway on the ball as it rolls, helped solve his aim problem.

Comparing the TP5 and TP5x versions also the TP5 should launch lower but with more spin and with its compression being almost identical, it is the most similar TaylorMade ball to the Titleist Pro V1.

2-time major champion and former world no.1 Dustin Johnson, who now plays his golf on the LIV Tour is also a long-term user of the TaylorMade TP5x golf ball, and in terms of which players are using which version of TaylorMade golf ball in the top 100 of the PGA Tour the full list is as follows:

  • TaylorMade TP5  – Collin Morikawa, Lucas Herbert, Justin Rose
  • TaylorMade TP5x  – Rory McIlroy, Kurt Kitayama, Matthew Wolff and Tommy Fleetwood (Pix version).

What Callaway Golf Ball Do the Pros Use?

Another great of the game, Phil Mickelson has been a loyal Callaway stable member for a long time now and continues to use Callaway’s Chrome Soft X ball.

Although Mickelson now also plays his golf on the LIV Tour when it comes to the golf balls being used by the best players on the PGA Tour Callaway balls are the second most used brand among the top 100 alongside Srixon.

10 of the top 100 PGA Tour pros use Callaway golf balls. 9 of the 10 choose Callaway’s Chrome Soft X ball including Jon Rahm, Sam Burns, and Maverick McNealy while the 2020 Olympic Champion – Xander Schauffele – is the only one of this group to use the Chrome Soft X ‘Low Spin’ (LS) version.

These numbers make the Chrome Soft X the most played golf ball among the top 100 behind the Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x but our analysis also shows one less player in the top 100 chooses to play a Callaway golf ball in 2023 compared to the last time we carried out this in-depth analysis two years ago.

The complete list of the top 100 players on the PGA Tour currently using Callaway balls is as follows:

  • Xander Schauffele (Chrome Soft X LS)
  • Jon Rahm (Chrome Soft X)
  • Sam Burns (Chrome Soft X)
  • Si Woo Kim (Chrome Soft X)
  • Maverick McNealy (Chrome Soft X)
  • Adam Hadwin (Chrome Soft X)
  • Christiaan Bezuidenhout (Chrome Soft X)
  • Emiliano Grillo (Chrome Soft X)
  • Marc Leishman (Chrome Soft X)
  • Alex Noren(Chrome Soft X)

What Srixon Golf Ball Do the Pros Use?

Of the best hundred golfers on the PGA Tour only five manufacturers are represented when it comes to the brands of golf balls being played and the next one of these in our study list is Srixon.

Only 10 of the top 100 PGA Tour pros play a Srixon golf ball. Six of the ten play the Z-Star XV ball including Hideki Matsuyama and Shane Lowry while the remaining 4 choose the Z-Star Diamond model which is also used by 2023 USPGA Champion Brooks Koepka. None of this group uses the Srixon Z-Star.

Srixon has added a couple of top 100 PGA golfers to its roster since Golfing Focus last looked at the golf balls being used by this elite group a couple of years back but as we can see they still have a very long way to go in terms of affecting Titleist’s dominance.

The list of pros among the top 100 using a Srixon golf ball is as follows:

  • Srixon Z-Star XV  – Hideki Matsuyama, Shane Lowry, Taylor Pendrith, Andrew Putnam, Russell Knox, Matthew NeSmith
  • Srixon Z-Star Diamond  – Sepp Straka, Keegan Bradley, J.J.Spaun, Brooks Koepka

What Bridgestone Golf Ball Do the Pros Use?

Moving finally onto the use of Bridgestone golf balls amongst the best 100 players on the PGA Tour it is perhaps surprising that the ball favoured by arguably the greatest golfer of all time – Tiger Woods – is only used by two of his colleagues among the top pros on tour.

And that very small number is half of what it was the last time we did this analysis!

Adam Rehberg, Bridgestone’s golf ball fitting manager remarked in 2020 that the sound of the golf ball was so important to Tiger that he would “turn a ball away just for the fact that it didn’t sound like he wanted it to.”

Given such exacting standards it is interesting to note that only Matt Kuchar of the top 100 PGA Tour pros we looked at uses the same Tour B X golf ball as the golfing legend although Tiger did play the Tour B XS model in all his 15 major wins and only recently made the switch to the Tour B X ball prior to the Masters.

Jason Day, who looks certain to make a welcome return to the top ranks of the PGA Tour over the course of this season also uses the Tour B X ball while Brendan Steele, the second of the Bridgestone ball players in the top 100 chooses the Tour B XS version.

What Compression Golf Balls Do the Pros Use?

No matter what standard of golfer you are we all have a tendency to focus a lot on the stats of the game and that focus is not just confined to the numbers on our scorecard, and how they came about, but also to the equipment we use as well.

And when it comes to golf balls one of the numbers many players can obsess over is compression and with respect to the pros we often wonder what compression of ball they typically put in play, or in simpler terms whether they use hard or soft golf balls.

60% of the top 100 pros on the PGA Tour use a hard or ‘firm’ compression golf ball including Titleist’s Pro V1, Callaway’s Chrome Soft X, and Srixon’s Z-Star Diamond. The remaining 40% opt for an ‘extra firm’ golf ball such as the Pro V1x or TaylorMade TP5x while no PGA Tour pro uses a ‘soft’ golf ball.

Other ‘firm’ compression golf balls we discovered being used by this group included the Chrome Soft LS, the Pro V1 Left Dot, Bridgestone’s Tour B XS, and the Srixon Z-Star Diamond.

In the ‘extra firm’ compression camp meanwhile was also the Bridgestone Tour B X and Srixon Z-Star XV golf balls.

We look in depth at different golf ball compressions, and specifically the impact of how hard or soft a ball is affects distance in another post here , but put simply the ‘compression’ of a golf ball happens when it gets squashed against the club face when you hit it.

How much it changes shape at the point of impact determines its’ compression rating – between 30 to 110 – and a harder golf ball will change shape less than a softer one.

The amount of compression is also affected by the speed of a golfer’s swing and golfers with higher swingspeeds towards 100mph hit the ball further with harder golf balls – closer to the 110 compression end of the scale – but lose distance with soft or supersoft balls at the lower end of the compression scale.

Given the average swingspeed on the PGA Tour is around 114mph, and how important distance is in the game, it makes sense that the pros use hard golf balls because the amount of force they hit the ball with is so great that the ball benefits from having less ‘interaction time’ with the club face.

As a general rule therefore poorer golfers with slower swingspeeds of less than 80mph will get more from softer golf balls while better players will prefer firmer golf balls.

The best way however to find out which compression of ball works best for you is to try a few out and not worry a lot about what the pros are using.

Things are made a bit more complicated by the fact that all the golf ball manufacturers use their own compression machine which means there is no industry standard compression number you can use to help you make your choice of ball.

But if you think of compression in terms of categories – extra soft, soft, medium, firm, and extra firm – and choose one made by your preferred manufacturer that’s appropriate to your playing ability and budget, your swingspeed will undoubtedly help guide you to the correct end of the hard or soft scale.

Do the Pros Use Different or Special Golf Balls?

It is hard to watch golf on TV these days and not wonder whether the pros are actually using the same equipment as we can buy ourselves.

But what is the reality and specifically when it comes to the golf balls they use?

Many pro golfers use the same golf balls the public can buy but some use versions that have minor differences and are only available to the pros. These ‘custom performance option’ (CPO) balls must still be listed on the USGA conforming ball list and carry a unique marking identifier such as a diamond, dash, or dot.

According to veteran club builder Jeff Markgraf however these ‘Tour only’ versions of golf balls “.. are not ‘ better’ than what is sold to consumers, [but just have] a little different performance that certain players are looking for.”

Also occasionally – as Titleist did with first the Pro V1x Left Dash and more recently with the Pro V1 Left Dot – the big brands make these previously off-menu golf balls available to the public but you are unlikely to find them on the retail shelves as they are sold almost exclusively through the manufacturers’ websites.

These CPO balls are typically developed when the main manufacturers are working with Tour pros who are looking for performance characteristics that are slightly different from the balls we can buy in the golf store.

The Pro V1 Left Dot came about for example when some pros expressed interest in keeping the flight of their golf ball down, especially in the wind.

Titleist therefore developed the Left Dot as a CPO to deliver a ball to these players that flew lower and spun less than the Pro V1 when it came to the long game but that also produced the same greenside spin and control that the ‘standard’ Pro V1 model offered.

The Left Dot has since gone on to help the pros win over $0.25 billion on the PGA Tour as well as a couple of majors but I think it’s safe to say however that whatever the differences are in these unique golf balls the pros use they wouldn’t make any difference to, or be noticed by, 99.9% of mainstream golfers!

Before you go …

Do you listen to the marketing of the golf ball manufacturers and get the impression that every ball they produce will give you the maximum possible distance both off the tee and with all your clubs?

That is clearly not the case and given the 1,229 golf ball options available according to the latest ‘List of Conforming Golf Balls’ it can be difficult to work out what ball will give you the most distance.

Read our next article to help you choose which will be the best ‘distance’ ball for you as we break down the science and explain how hard or soft, heavy or light, new or old, a golf ball is affects distance.

Srixon golf balls aren’t seen as much on TV as some of the others, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t as good. They actually make some of my favorite models, and in this post, we’ll be comparing each model and talking about which is the best for you.

Which golf ball are you interested in?

  • Z-Star Diamond
  • Q-Star Tour
  • Best Srixon Ball For Low Handicappers
  • Best Srixon Ball For Mid Handicappers
  • Best Srixon Ball For High Handicappers

Which ball you decide to play does make a big difference, it can hurt distance and increase your hook/slice. It all comes down to what your skill level is and what you need your ball to do. We’ll jump into everything you need to know, but if you just want a quick comparison, check out the table below.

Share your experience. Have you used any of these balls? If so, let me know your thoughts of them in the comments below .

Do Golf Balls Really Make A Difference?

who makes tour special golf balls

The majority of golfers out there (myself included) just tee up whatever ball they found in the woods the round before. I always just thought all balls were pretty much the same, but that isn’t even close to being true.

Each type of ball is designed differently and is made for different golfers . Different balls have different layers , have different compression ratings , spin at different speeds , and require different swing speeds.

If you’re a high handicapper , you probably have an average swing speed (or slightly less). With an average swing speed, you won’t be able to fully compress a high compression ball.

You’ll lose distance, your ball won’t go as high as you’d want, and you might get big hooks and slices. You need a ball that’s built for your swing.

If you’re a low handicapper , you probably have a faster than average swing speed. A low compression ball might compress too much, which can lead to less distance, shots that are too high, and shots that are hard to control.

Average golfers need distance and forgiveness . The most important thing is to play a ball that will help you find the fairway. You don’t need a ball that spins a lot. See how backspin and sidespin affect a golf ball .

Low handicappers have better control over the ball, so they don’t need as much forgiveness. They’re able to spin the ball more with their wedges, and that’s why they need a higher spinning ball .

Know Your Swing Speed

One of the easiest ways to better understand what ball you should be playing is by looking at your swing speed. Generally, faster swing speeds require a higher compression golf ball. The opposite is true for slower swing speeds.

  • Best golf balls for high swing speeds
  • Best golf balls for slow swing speeds

If you match the compression rating with your swing speed, you’ll get optimal distance and spin rates. Those are both important if you want to improve scores.

So, how do you figure out your swing speed?

The best way to figure it out is by testing it on a launch monitor. If you go to Topgolf or a local golf shop, you should be able to figure it out. Another way is by looking at your driver’s distance.

It’s not a perfect solution, but it should give you a better idea. Once you know that, you then need to decide which Srixon ball you’d like to play. In most cases, the Z-Star series is for fast swing speeds, the Soft Feel series are for slower swing speeds, and the Q-Star series is somewhere in the middle.

Srixon Z-Star

who makes tour special golf balls

  • Handicap : Low
  • Feel : Softer
  • Compression : 90
  • Flight : Mid
  • Driver Spin : Low
  • Wedge Spin : Highest

The standard Z-Star ball is made up of 3 pieces and is designed for low handicaps. If you’re a more skilled golfer with a faster than average swing speed, this could be for you.

What is the compression of the Z-Star? The Z-Star has a compression rating of 90, which makes it ideal for better golfers with a swing speed between 90-100 MPH.

Compared to the other two options, this ball feels the softest . Part of the reason is the softer outer shell, but the other reason is that the compression rating is 10 fewer. You can see the difference between soft and hard golf balls here.

Since the compression rating is a bit less, the required swing speed is also less. At these swing speeds, you’ll get the most distance, the ball will feel really solid, and your spin rates should be right.

Another difference between the other two balls is that this one has the lowest ball flight . It’s not by a lot, but it should give you a bit more rollout, which will help you get a few extra yards.

The spin rates with the driver are also on the lower side, which should help you get straighter golf shots. Straighter shots mean more distance, which is always a good thing.

The final difference is that this ball has the most greenside spin . I don’t know if you can quickly stop the ball on the green, but if you can’t (and want to), this might be the way to go.

Who plays Srixon Z-Star: Keegan Bradley, Inbee Park.

Srixon Z-Star XV

  • Handicap: Low
  • Compression: 102
  • Flight: Mid-High
  • Driver Spin: Low
  • Wedge Spin: High

The Z-Star XV is Srixon’s most used ball on tour and takes what the standard Z-Star offers and adds an extra layer (4 piece), which increases the compression rating compared to the standard Z-Star. This means that you’ll need a slightly faster swing speed to benefit.

RELATED : 3 vs 4 Piece Golf Balls

What is the compression of the Z-Star XV? The Z-Star XV has a compression rating of 102, which makes it ideal for better golfers with a swing speed above 100 MPH.

Adding the extra layer will help reduce the amount of driver spin as your swing speed increases. This should help with straighter shots and more fairways found.

Just like with all Z-Star models, the outer shell is made from a softer urethane material . It’s not quite as soft as the standard Z-Star, but it’s on the softer side. Most people prefer that, but it doesn’t really impact the performance.

One of the differences between the Z-Star and Z-Star XV is that the XV will fly a little bit higher . This should give you a bit more distance as well if you swing the club fast enough (100+ MPH).

When it comes to spin rates, both Z-Star models produce low driver spin, which will help hit straight shots. The difference comes from greenside spin , since the XV spins a bit less. It’s still a high spinning ball, but it’s not quite as much.

Who plays Srixon Z-Star XV: Shane Lowry, Graeme McDowell, Hideki Matsuyama.

Srixon Z-Star Diamond

  • Driver Spin: Mid
  • Wedge Spin: Higher

The Z-Star Diamond is the latest golf ball in this series and is very similar to the XV. The main difference is that it’s designed for tour players like Brooks Koepka.

One of the differences between the XV and Diamond is that this ball has one less layer . Having one less layer should give you a bit more spin with the driver, which has its pros and cons.

The overall feel of the ball is exactly the same as the XV and so are the ball flight and the compression rating. This means you’ll need an above-average swing speed to see the full benefits.

What is the compression of the Srixon Z-Star Diamond? The Diamond has a compression rating of 102, which is the same as the XV. This makes the Diamond ideal for golfers with a swing speed above 100 MPH.

There are really only two differences between the Diamond and the XV. The first is that this ball will spin more off the tee . This could better help you control the height and shape of the ball.

That being said, if you occasionally hook or slice the ball, it could make that worse.

The second difference is that this ball has a bit more greenside spin . It’s not as much as the standard Z-Star but it’s more than the XV.

Who plays Srixon Z-Star Diamond: Brooks Koepka.

Similar to: Titleist Pro V1x, Bridgestone Tour B XS.

Srixon Q-Star

Handicap: Mid Layers: 2 Feel: Soft Compression: 72 Flight: Mid-High Driver Spin: Low Wedge Spin: Mid

The Q-Star is a middle-of-the-range golf ball that is built for mid-handicappers . It sits between the Soft Feel and Z-Star and offers some of the benefits of each ball.

The standard Q-Star is built with 2 layers and has a lower compression rating compared to the Z-Star, which means it’s good for slightly slower swing speeds.

What is the compression of the Srixon Q-Star? The Q-Star has a compression rating of 72, which makes it perfect for mid-handicap golfers with a swing speed between 75-95 MPH.

Just like with all Srixon balls, the Q-Star has a softer outer cover, which I think most people like. That being said, it’s not quite as soft feeling as the Q-Star Tour. The Q-Star has an Ionomer cover while the Tour has a urethane cover.

The second difference between these balls is that this one will fly a little bit higher . It’s not by much, but it should be enough to give people with slower swing speeds a bit more distance.

When it comes to driver spin , both balls are exactly the same. They both produce low driver spin, but the differences come closer to the green. The standard Q-Star doesn’t spin quite as much off the wedge.

In my opinion, most people won’t be able to tell much of a difference between the standard Q-Star and the Tour. They fly pretty similarly off the tee and it’s only a slight difference around the greens.

Who should use: A “higher” mid handicapper who wants to save a bit of money and can’t yet put spin on their wedges.

Srixon Q-Star Tour

who makes tour special golf balls

Handicap: Mid Layers: 3 Feel: Softer Compression: 72 Flight: Mid Driver Spin: Low Wedge Spin: Mid

The Q-Star Tour is pretty similar to the standard Q-Star, but I think it’s a better choice for “better” mid handicappers with a slightly faster swing speed .

The first difference is that the Tour has one extra layer (3 piece). The cover on the Tour is urethane, which makes it feel a little softer and spin more around the green.

RELATED : 2 vs 3 Piece Golf Balls

The compression rating is exactly the same, which makes it ideal for golfers with the same swing speeds. Slower swing speeds should go with the Soft Feel ball. For faster speeds, the Z-Star might be better.

What’s the compression of the Srixon Q-Star Tour? The Tour has a compression rating of 72, which is the same as the standard Q-Star. This makes the ball ideal for golfers with a swing speed between 75-95 MPH.

The ball flight will also be a bit lower with this ball. It’s not something you’d clearly notice, but it could give you a few extra yards if you have a faster swing speed.

The spin rates are exactly the same off the tee but the Tour will bite the green a bit better . If you can’t spin the ball, you won’t notice a difference. If you can spin the ball, this could be a better choice.

The reason this ball will bite the greens more is because of the urethane cover . It’s what higher-end balls have and is why this ball is a bit more expensive.

Who should use: A “better” mid handicap who has a faster swing speed (85-95 MPH) and can actually put spin on their wedge shots.

Similar to : Taylormade Tour Response & Callaway Chrome Soft

Srixon Soft Feel

who makes tour special golf balls

Handicap: High Layers: 2 Feel: Softest Compression: 70 Flight: Mid-High Driver Spin: Low Wedge Spin: Low

These balls were my favorite for quite a while and are ideal for beginners, high handicaps, or anyone who doesn’t want to spend a fortune on golf balls.

They’re made of 2 pieces and are the softest golf balls from Srixon. The compression rating is also the lowest, which makes them designed for slower swing speeds.

What is the compression of the Srixon Soft Feel? Both the Soft Feel and Soft Feel Lady have a compression of 70, which makes them ideal for golfers with a swing speed less than 85 MPH.

Having a lower compression rating will help you get more distance with a slower swing speed. If you use a ball with a higher compression rating, it’ll probably go low and with not much distance. You can see our high vs low compression golf ball test here.

The biggest benefit of this ball is that it produces very little driver spin. Most beginners and high handicaps slice the ball off the planet. That’s caused by sidespin.

Playing this ball won’t fix that, but it should reduce that spin more than any of the others. Straighter shots will lead to more distance and more fairways found.

The reason I don’t play these balls anymore is that they don’t spin much around the green. This won’t matter for average golfers because they probably can’t put spin on any ball.

What’ll happen is that you’ll land the ball on the green and it’ll just roll out. If you want your ball to bite quickly on the green, you’ll need a higher-end ball. That’s why I prefer the Q-Star (I’m a mid-handicap though).

If you’re a female golfer, you might want to consider the Soft Feel Lady . It’s pretty much the same but it’ll launch the ball slightly higher, which could give you a bit more distance.

Who should use: A beginner, high handicapper, or mid-handicap who doesn’t want to spend a lot on balls.

What Srixon Ball Should You Use?

If you’re a fan of Srixon golf balls but don’t know which one to use, there are a few things you need to look at. The most important thing is what your current skill level is and how much you want to pay.

A golfer just getting started should definitely not use the same ball as someone shooting in the 70s. These golfers need their balls to do different things and that’s why Srixon makes different models.

As your ball starts to offer more features, the price will also increase. Beginners and high handicaps shouldn’t spend a whole lot of money on balls because they’ll lose a bunch. Once you get better, you can pay for better performance.

Other things to consider are your swing speed, shot height, spin rates, and feel. We’ll jump into everything you need to know, but generally, they make balls that fit into three different categories: low, mid, and high handicap.

Our Testing Process : We test products for several weeks or months before writing our reviews so we can help you find the right product.  Learn more here .

Best Srixon Golf Ball For Low Handicappers

The best Srixon golf ball for most low handicaps is the standard Z-Star . Both the Z-Star XV and Z-Star Diamond are alternative choices, but these balls have a higher compression rating and are suited for faster than average swing speeds.

The reason these balls are suited for better players ( shooting in the 70s ) is that the compression rating is higher and they spin more. Since this is the case, they’ll be quite a bit more expensive than the others.

A higher compression rating will give you the most distance when your swing speed gets high enough. Anything above 90 MPH with the driver is when you might want to look at these balls.

A higher spin rate will help you control the ball better around the course. More spin lets you control the shape and trajectory of your shot and will also help you stop the ball quickly on the green.

You might be able to use these balls as a mid handicapper with a fast swing speed, but I don’t think you’d see enough benefit to justify the higher price.

For me (a mid handicapper), I prefer the Q-Star balls . I’m not good enough to get the difference between these balls and the Q-Star balls. I’ll save my money for now and stick with the cheaper balls.

The choice of what model you should add to your bag will depend on the feel of the ball and how much it spins. I think the majority of recreational players would prefer the standard Z-Star. Let’s quickly touch on the key differences.

Srixon Z-Star : This ball is the softest option with the highest spin rates. It’s built for golfers with swing speeds of at least 90 MPH and is going to fit the majority of recreational golfers.

Srixon Z-Star XV : This ball is firmer and will spin less than the standard Z-Star. It’s built for golfers with swing speeds of at least 100 MPH and will have a lower ball flight.

Srixon Z-Star Diamond : This ball is firmer than the standard Z-Star and will spin more than the XV. It’s somewhere between the other two balls. The compression rating is the same as the XV and the spin rates are similar to the Z-Star. The idea is more distance with more spin.

Best Srixon Golf Ball For Mid Handicappers

The best Srixon ball for mid-handicappers is the Srixon Q-Star Tour . This ball offers better performance compared to the Srixon Soft Feel, but it won’t cost as much as a tour-level ball.

The Q-Star series is Srixon’s mid-tier ball that offers better performance at a cheaper price. It essentially sits between the Soft Feel and Z-Star and is a great mid handicapper golf ball .

The reason these balls are suited for mid-handicaps is that the spin rates are higher than the Soft Feel. The Soft Feel is a perfect ball for some, but as you start getting better (shooting in the 80s), you probably want a bit more spin.

More spin will help you control the ball better. You probably want to start working on your short game spin; having the ball land on the green, bounce once or twice, and then stop.

High handicaps won’t be able to do this and that’s why there’s no point in spending the extra money. Plus, they’ll lose quite a few balls per round.

On the other hand, low handicaps will probably want more spin. The reason I wouldn’t recommend the Z-Star for a mid-handicap is that they won’t benefit from the increased spin. You won’t be able to stop the ball any quicker and it can actually make your hook or slice worse.

The Q-Star is a good mix of performance and value. You’ll have the choice between the standard Q-Star and Q-Star Tour, but I think Srixon is leaning more towards the tour (I would too).

Srixon Q-Star vs Q-Star Tour: Both Q-Star balls perform very similarly off the tee in terms of distance and ball flight. The main difference comes from the slightly softer feel and increased short game spin of the Q-Star Tour.

Best Srixon Golf Ball For High Handicappers

who makes tour special golf balls

The best Srixon ball for beginners, seniors, and high handicappers is the Srixon Soft Feel . These balls are built to provide the most forgiveness and increased distance for golfers with slower swing speeds.

These balls are Srixon’s entry-level model, but just because that’s the case doesn’t mean they aren’t as good as the others. All it means is that they’re for a different type of golfer. They’re a great golf ball for average golfers , which is anyone who shoots above 90 .

When you’re first getting started, you’re going to lose a lot of balls. That’s why one of the most important factors to look for is the price. These balls are much cheaper than any of the other models.

For high handicaps , one of the best ways to lower scores is to hit more fairways and greens in regulation. The Soft Feel ball has the lowest amount of spin, which will help hit straighter shots.

The downside is that it also means you won’t get much spin around the greens. That being said, beginners and high handicaps won’t be able to spin any type of ball anyway.

For senior golfers , one of the things you might struggle with is a decreasing swing speed. You might not swing the club as fast as you used to, which means you probably don’t hit the ball as high or as far as before.

The Soft Feel ball is designed to fly high and fly far for golfers with slower swing speeds . This also makes them a good choice for lady golfers .

Even as a mid handicap with a moderate swing speed, I still really like these balls. Golf is so much easier when you’re hitting your second shot from the fairway. The only downside is the short game spin.

Srixon Soft Feel vs Soft Feel Lady: The only difference is that the Lady will fly a little bit higher. Both balls have the same amount of layers, the same compression rating, and the same amount of wedge spin.

2024 TaylorMade TP5 & TP5x Golf Ball Review

More in accessories:.

TecTecTec KLYR Laser Rangefinder

50 Words or Less

The 2024 TaylorMade TP5 & TP5x golf balls are superb Tour-style golf balls.  Performance differences are fairly slim for players without elite speed or high spin.  TP5 is noticeably softer.

who makes tour special golf balls

Introduction

The shelves are full of Tour-style golf balls, and each one claims to be unique.  The TaylorMade TP5 and TP5X can make that claim with more veracity as the only two 5-piece golf balls on the shelf.  TaylorMade claims that this allows them to make the most complete ball on Tour.  I tested the latest versions to see if it’s true.

who makes tour special golf balls

Golf balls often feel the same on very short putts, but the TaylorMade TP5 and TP5X show their personalities even at very short distances.  The TP5 sits in that sweet spot between soft and responsive (TaylorMade hasn’t deviated much from the “damn near perfect” TP5 they made in 2018, review HERE ).  Switching to the TP5X , there’s a small but noticeable uptick in firmness .  On longer putts, the TP5X remains more firm and a sound difference appears.  The TP5X produces a “tock”; the TP5 stays a slightly quieter, lower pitched “thud.”

Moving to the wedges and irons, the TaylorMade TP5 remains one of my favorites.  The sound is deep and robust, and it’s soft in the hands.  The TP5X is similar, but it’s a bit louder and the feel is more crisp than soft.  Both of these feel excellent, in my opinion, it’s just a question of what you prefer: soft or responsive.

who makes tour special golf balls

According to TaylorMade, both the 2024 TP5 and 2024 TP5X have more short game spin than their 2021 counterparts.  They rate the new TP5 to be higher spinning than the TP5X.

In my testing, both balls were above average in short game spin.  This held true from pitch shots through full wedges.  The TaylorMade TP5 does have a slight spin advantage over the TP5X , but, for me, it was only a few hundred RPM.  This is a measurable difference, but I don’t think it would be noticeable on the course.

Interestingly, I found the spin on the TP5X to be slightly more consistent than the TP5.  It’s always possible that this can be accounted for by strike quality or sample size, but I found it difficult to hit a shot with the TP5X that didn’t produce very strong spin.

who makes tour special golf balls

The advantage passes from the TaylorMade TP5 to the TP5X as we move from the short game to the long game.  Per TaylorMade, the TP5X should have lower driver spin, driver trajectory, and iron spin compared to the TP5.  Additionally, both 2024 models are lower in spin than their 2021 versions .  TaylorMade also promotes the TP5X as being faster than the TP5.

My iron testing revealed a spin difference similar to what I saw with the wedges.  The TP5 produced spin that’s at what I consider average for a Tour-style golf ball.  With the TaylorMade TP5X, my spin was down a couple hundred RPM .  As always, I’ll note that I’m a low spin player.  High spin players may see a bigger difference between models.

Shifting to the driver, the difference in spin was again quite modest.  The TP5X was slightly lower spinning than the TP5, but the gap was under 200 RPM on average.  Similarly, I found slightly more ball speed in the TP5X, but the difference would be hard to notice on the course.  On average, but the TP5X was about 1 MPH faster for me .  Here I’ll note that I’m in that liminal space where my speed is above average but far from elite.  For Rory, I would suspect there’s a significant speed difference between the two models.  For we mortals, a launch monitor is required to find the difference.

TaylorMade TP5 & TP5X Graphic Options

The TaylorMade TP5 and TP5X are being offered with a range of graphics.  White is an option, of course, as is Hi-Vis Yellow.  The focus, however, is on TaylorMade’s pix graphics.  According to TM, these graphics improve visibility, meaning fewer lost balls.

The pix graphics are also a way for golfers to show their personality.  TM will be offering pix USA and pix Collegiate golf balls in 2024.  There will also be limited edition runs like pix Pickle and pix Poker.

who makes tour special golf balls

Whether you opt for plain white or something visually bolder, the TaylorMade TP5 and TP5X are high performing golf balls that excel in every facet of the game.  For me, the TP5 is at the very top of my list for feel, but players who want something more crisp and responsive will gravitate to the TP5X.

I have been playing the new TP5X and absolutely love the ball from green to tee. I love its feel and responsiveness around the green; I think it has improved my up and downs for sure. Approach shots needed some adjustment as I was about 1/2 a club longer in distance, but flight and window were on par for what I like. And on the tee? This ball definitely goes further than other golf balls I’ve used. I do have a low spin driver but still when compared to other balls the new TP5X comes out ahead.

I’m going to buy as many as I can before the rollback takes effect!

' src=

Hi Matt! Great review as always! As a low spin player myself I’ve been looking at TP5 and ProV1x. Do you have any preference between those balls as far as feel and spin for a lower spin player? I also don’t have a ton of speed so a little extra distance helps too! Thanks again for all your great reviews!!

' src=

I prefer the feel of the TP5 to the ProV1x as I generally prefer the softer ball in any two ball OEM pairing.

' src=

Hi Matt. Thank you so much for your review. I currently play the pro v1…I love everything about the ball except I would like to see a higher flight on my driver (the pro v1x seems too spinny to me). Do you know if either of the TP5s fly notably higher than the pro v1 off the driver (mid 90 club-head speed) with similar spin, or is that an impossible ask? Thank you!

You said it: I can’t answer that for you. I’d suggest buying a sleeve and hitting them on the course.

' src=

I got both balls to test and around the green the TP5 stops…. the tp5x will roll out. That is across the board I found if you hit the spin button you are getting your carry and not much more with the tp5. If i had a place with super fast greens or played a dry fast Muni I would use the Tp5.

I use the TP5X

' src=

How would you compare the TP5x to a ProV1x in terms of feel? TaylorMade is promoting the new TP5x as being faster yet softer-feeling than the old TP5x

They’re close. My feeling is that there are certainly differences in the premium category but a lot of people make way too much of them.

Fair – thanks! Was hoping you might say it was softer than ProV1x, tbh. I use ProV1x even though I hate the feel of hitting a rock. Would much prefer the feel of something softer, but results-wise I’m consistently longer with ProV1x with driver and irons than anything else I try and seem to have plenty of spin from in short, so I’m “stuck” with it, I guess. Will eventually try the TP5x once I need to restock.

' src=

Got my first HIO with TP5 2021 version love the slightly softer 2024 version fits my under 90 mph swing speed.

5 Most Popular Golf Balls on the PGA Tour (2023 Guide)

PGA Tour athletes are usually sponsored by golf equipment manufacturers. But unlike a YouTube shoutout, the athletes getting sponsored by the brands have to actually use the products and prove their effectiveness on the world stage.

This makes the equipment used on the PGA level some of the most fairly promoted and honestly displayed on the planet. And golf balls are among the most tracked equipment on the PGA Tour.

The 5 Most popular golf balls on the PGA Tour are Titleist (Pro V1 and Pro V1x), Callaway Chrome Soft X, TaylorMade TP5x, Srixon Z-Star XV, and Bridgestone Tour B X. The most popular ball brand by far is Titleist, with the Pro V1 and Pro V1x unable to be separated in choice by the pros.

In this article, you will learn more about the top brands, the specific balls used, and what the adoption volume actually communicates. We will also review some notable names that play with these balls alongside their global rankings. By the end, you will know which balls you should get.

1. Titleist

Titleist proudly calls itself the “#1 ball in golf.” And its quality control makes sure it lives up to that every season. It remains the top choice for most players in the PGA Tour year after year. 2023 is no different. Its Pro V1 ball was introduced over 21 years ago and remains fresh and in demand to this day.

While Titleist doesn’t come out with the fanciest balls each year, its strict, self-imposed standards make professionals trust it. The brand has prestige and esteem second to none, with numerous golfing legends having chosen its Pro V1 ball.

In the latest PGA Tour, 74 Tour players opted for balls from the Titleist brand. The players used three balls made by Titleist, with its Pro V1 and the Pro V1x being the most played ball from Titleist or any brand.

Which Titleist balls did these players pick?

  • Titleist Pro V1  
  • Titleist Pro V1x
  • Titleist Pro V1 Left dot

The Pro V1 is considered the most playable ball with a cross-mass appeal. It is one of the few pro balls that is preferred by professional golfers and high handicapper hobbyists alike. The Titleist brand does boast the highest player adoption, but its product roster that made it to the latest tour was narrow.

When selecting balls for yourself, avoid getting lured in by the bling of the brand. Every golf ball with the Titleist logo doesn’t become as good as the Pro V1. Moreover, you must be sure you have the same golfing needs as the players who use Titleist balls.

Some notable players using Titlist Pro V1 (on and outside the PGA Tour) include Adam Scott, Corey Conners, Tony Finau, Gary Woodland, and Scottie Scheffler. The V1x ball is used by Brendon Todd, Matt Fitzpatrick, and Chris Kirk.

2. Callaway

Callaway comes at a steep second position, with only a dozen players opting for the brand. However, it doesn’t indicate Callaway balls’ quality in relation to Titleist. It just shows that the brand doesn’t sign as many golfers. By merit, Callaway balls have a decent professional appeal.

The Chrome Soft X ball is #3 in popularity among PGA Tour players. Alex Noren, Xander Schauffele, and Jon Rahm are some of the pros with the Chrome Soft X ball in their bags. With 12 of the top PGA players using Callaway balls, it is worth considering for aspiring, hobbyist, and semi-professional golfers.

What Callaway balls do these players use?

  • Chrome Soft X (used by 11 PGA players) 
  • Chrome Soft (used by 1 PGA player)

A sponsored player gets to select the ball that works for him. So, while we may not know whether the players who use a Callaway ball do so because of their natural interest or the money they get, we can clearly see that the Chrome Soft X ball is in higher demand.

This could be because the Soft X is more professionally playable, while the Chrome Soft is for players with too much slice.

Callaway Chrome Soft Ball and TaylorMade Ball

3. TaylorMade

TaylorMade has a fascinating founding history and over four decades of serving the golf market. It is no wonder it is one of the world’s top three sports equipment manufacturers if we go by PGA player adoption. Still, it doesn’t play the volume game on its sponsorships. With ten professionals using TaylorMade balls, the brand is third in popularity but doesn’t lag behind in effectiveness.

Morikawa, currently the sixth best player in the world by 2022 rankings, uses TaylorMade TP5. Other players who use TaylorMade balls include Dustin Johnson and Justin Rose.

If the top performers can work with TaylorMade balls, the balls are definitely great. But before you buy the latest TaylorMade ball, assuming it will level up your game, you must know which specific ball fits your style or personal handicap.

Which TaylorMade balls do PGA Pros use?

  • TaylorMade TP5x  
  • TaylorMade TP5
  • TaylorMade TP5X Pix

TP5X is more playable because it is firmer and has a slightly higher flight than TP5. TP5X Pix makes the tour level excellence more accessible to the fresh golfer. It makes sense to start with the TP5X Pix if you want to graduate to a TP5 or TP5X.

While Srixon is a newcomer in the golf equipment business, it is backed by a rubber industry giant and made its start with golf balls. Many golf ball manufacturers start as club makers, then venture into golf ball technology.

Eight PGA athletes use Srixon balls, with Brooks Koepka being its highest ranking golfer (#25 in world rankings).

Srixon balls get a good performance out of mid-handicappers. The approach that Srixon took to its ball-making, at least from what the results show, is for the masses.

Top ranking pros are rarely seen with Srixon balls, but serious amateurs with enviably low scores are often seen sporting them. Still, the 8 PGA Tour golfers sporting Srixon balls prove that these balls can perform well on a professional level.

Which Srixon balls do these players use?

  • Srixon Z-Star XV  
  • Srixon Z-Star Diamond

Both the balls are pretty firm and fit for tour-level performance. It is said that Srixon’s budget keeps it from getting these balls in the bags of better-performing athletes. But given the brand’s popularity among mid-handicappers, it is also inferred that it makes balls for the masses. We lean towards the latter conclusion, but the former might have merit to it as well. 

If you want a Srixon ball that’s better suited for mid-handicappers, you can choose a Srixon Soft Feel Golf Ball. However, you must remember that this ball isn’t used on the PGA Tour. Only the Diamond and the XV are currently in PGA-level use.

5. Bridgestone

Despite being the fifth in player adoption, Bridgestone has the honor of having a legend like Tiger Woods on the roster. It doesn’t help that two of Bridgestone’s top golfers are currently cut from the world rankings leaderboard. Still, that has less to do with the Bridgestone balls.

Bridgestone has only six professionals using its Tour B balls at the PGA Tour level. Even though the sponsorship volume is low, the specific balls adopted at the PGA level continue to impress. Bridgestone is another golf ball maker with a background in rubber. 

This seems to inform its design choices that span two broad categories. The ‘e’ balls are great for hobbyists but fail to make it onto the PGA Tour. On the other hand, the Tour B balls are currently in use at the PGA level.

What Bridgestone balls do these players use?

  • Bridgestone Tour B X 
  • Bridgestone Tour B XS

The XS ball has a higher spin which can be beneficial for semi-professionals that need a higher iron spin to offset the effects of their swing.

Golfer Teeing Off

Should I buy PGA Tour balls?

Now that you know which balls are the most popular on the PGA Tour, the question is whether you should get them. You will get excellent performance from the tour balls mentioned in this post if you are not a beginner. The golf balls used by PGA players aren’t the best for novices and high handicappers.

Fortunately, each popular brand that sponsors PGA Tour participants also has softer balls, balls with a slice-neutralizing spin, and balls with different degrees of flight. You’ll have fairly satisfactory results if you buy balls backed by the abovementioned brands.

Final Thoughts

If we look at the most popular balls on the PGA Tour, Titleist is the prevailing brand by some margin, with the others barely scrambling for position behind the market leaders.

PGA athletes use balls from the roster of their respective sponsors. This costs brands like Titleist and Callaway a good chunk of money. Even if you don’t get the exact balls used by advanced players, you can trust the brands with PGA visibility.

What are “Tour” Golf Balls?

by Jeane Derouen · December 13, 2018

Callaway Chrome Soft Golf Balls, image: callawaygolf.com

Callaway Chrome Soft Golf Balls, image: callawaygolf.com

“Drive for show, putt for dough” may be the most time-worn old saying in golf. It also might be the truest, especially when choosing a golf ball to play. The relentless push of technology has brought golf to the point that almost all golf ball brands market “maximum distance” off the tee and in fact, the results are pretty close between comparable balls from each brand. Given the fact that the average golfer produces a wide disparity of contact from shot-to-shot, consistent performance from a golf ball is hard to achieve.

Consumer balls with two-piece construction and a durable Surlyn cover have long been the favorites of the weekend hacker. These balls produce less spin, fly further off the tee and stand up tougher to mishit iron shots. Tour balls produce more spin off the clubface which makes them easier to control. Typically, the covers of high-performance Tour balls are fashioned from pliable polyurethane.

The Tour Ball Comes to the Masses

In most cases, it is best for the average player to not pay too much attention to anything made specifically for Tour Professionals – those guys are playing a different game than the rest of us. That is not the case for golf balls, however. Golf ball manufacturers have massaged the high-energy insides of a golf ball to the point where even high spin golf balls can keep up with their hard, two-piece counterparts in distance.

This means that a high handicapper whose main concern is distance off the tee can now play a Tour Ball that offers both distance and feel. One of the joys in golf is being able to every now and then execute a shot exactly as a pro does. Few non-professionals can hope to match a pro’s distance off the tee, but for pitches from 100 yards in, it’s possible to knock it as close as a pro to the hole. Tour balls offer a softer feel and more control on these crucial finesse shots.

You can prove for yourself that it is not just the professionals who can tell the difference in golf balls and consumer balls. Take a few to the putting green and make a few identical putts with each. On these short strokes, you will be able to “feel” the difference in a two-piece ball and a Tour Ball. You will also notice that a two-piece ball travels appreciable further off the putter head than a Tour Ball using the same length of stroke.

Golf’s Most Popular Tour Ball

You can also verify the popularity of Tour Golf Balls among average players for yourself by keeping track of balls you find on the golf course. The Titleist Pro V1 is the most popular golf ball on the PGA tour and is also the ball you’re most likely to find poking through the woods in search of an errant drive. When you find a Pro V1, one thing you will notice is that the covers are rarely scarred. The durability of the new synthetic covers makes these high-performance golf balls very attractive to the mass market.

Tour Golf Ball Comparison and Compression

While durability, distance, and performance are a winning combination for the amateur player, professionals also look for a desired launch angle and spin rate from their golf balls. Some pros may prefer a slightly firmer golf ball, so it doesn’t spin too much. To that end, Tour Balls are produced with an array of exacting specifications. For instance, the 5-layer TaylorMade Tour Ball comes in different degrees of softness with the TP5 and the TP5X .

TaylorMade TP5 Comparison Chart, image: taylormadegolf.com

TaylorMade TP5 Comparison Chart, image: taylormadegolf.com

Softness is the newest trend in golf balls. A golf ball becomes “soft” from a lowering of the core compression and the adjusting of the polymer-blended urethane covers. This permits the ball to be microscopically compacted at impact to deliver a trampoline effect that delivers extra distance. At the same time, the softer ball will also be more controllable on short shots close to the green. Callaway Chrome Soft Golf Balls have been the leader in giving weekend players the chance to experience Tour Ball performance without Tour professional swing speeds.

Is a Tour golf ball right for you? It depends on many factors and the best way to know is to getting properly fitting, that way you’re playing the best golf ball for your individual game.

RAM GOLF BALLS

The best value in golf.

RAM golf balls offer the best value in the industry, but it’s not because we compromise on quality.

Here are three reasons RAM golf balls are so affordable—without sacrificing performance. 

who makes tour special golf balls

We Sell Direct

We don't share profits with retailers or distributors, so we don't need to mark up our prices. 

who makes tour special golf balls

We Cut Everything But Quality

Competitor golf balls come in a pretty box. And inside there are 4 more boxes. You are paying roughly $10 in package costs for some brands. What a waste! 

Our balls come in a plain bag. Nothing fancy. Just better value.

who makes tour special golf balls

We Further Cut Costs By Shipping 3 Dozen Or More At A Time

That all equates to about $1 a ball for the Laser line, and $1.38 per ball for the Tour Spin.

At these prices, you can afford to pop a few in the lake.

who makes tour special golf balls

Ultimate Value

  • Colors: White, Yellow
  • Construction: 2 Piece
  • Cover: DuPont Surlyn
  • Compression: 80 (Mid)

Laser Spin provides higher levels of spin than other 2-piece golf balls to give golfers more control on approach shots and the best possible value.

The 2-piece construction features a mid-compression core with a DuPont Surlyn cover that's long lasting and resilient. We've also included our optimized 392 dimple icosahedron pattern, which we’ve found to optimize lift, ball flight, and stability.

who makes tour special golf balls

Laser Distance

Ultimate distance.

  • Compression: 90 (High)

We engineered our Laser Distance to be long… really long! This 2-piece construction features a high-compression core with a DuPont Surlyn cover that's long lasting and resilient. Fair warning: this is not a ball for slow swing speeds. It’s for those who crush it and have the clubhead speed to really compress the ball at impact.

The optimized 392 dimple icosahedron pattern provides optimum lift and stability for a long, straight ball flight. Expect this ball to generate lower spin rates through the bag for long, straight shots that will leave your playing partners in awe.

who makes tour special golf balls

Ultimate Feel

  • Compression: 70 (Low)

The Ram Laser Plus golf balls are designed to help create maximum distance for golfers with slower swing speeds. At impact, it’s crucial that the ball compresses against your club face. If you swing slower, harder balls won’t compress, robbing you of distance. This ball is designed to compress and spring off the face, giving you your distance back. The lower compression also delivers an incredibly soft feel.

The 2-piece, DuPont Surlyn helps create more spin than other 2-piece designs, adding to control on green approaches. The 392 icosahedron dimple pattern is designed for lower drag and optimal lift, keeping the ball in the air longer.

who makes tour special golf balls

Ultimate Performance

  • Colors: White
  • Construction: 3-Piece
  • Compression: 85 (Mid-High)

The Tour Spin golf ball has been engineered to provide a perfect balance between distance, spin, and feel. The 3-piece construction features a durable DuPont Surlyn cover, delivering high durability without compromising on feel, while the inner core of the ball produces thundering distance.

We crammed 392 dimples onto this golf ball. Our testing found this pattern increased ball flight and added a more stable trajectory thanks to the reduced wake the ball produced. This leads to straighter shots, less affected by gusts of sideways wind.

Day fires early warning shot as $2.6m title defence takes promising step

England’s Matt Wallace birdied five of the first six holes on his way to grabbing the lead in Thursday’s weather-hit first round of the PGA Tour CJ Cup Byron Nelson tournament.

The 34-year-old from London fired a bogey-free eight-under-par 63 at TPC Craig Ranch in McKinney, Texas, for a one-stroke lead over a group of seven players when darkness halted play with a handful of players still to finish.

Australia’s Jason Day, the defending champion of the $1.71m crown (AUD$2.6m), opened on 66.

“I feel like my game suits it pretty nice around this course,” Day said. “I think overall the average winning score is 22-under around here. You kind of have to shoot 5-, 6- a day, somewhere in that region. So it’s good. Kind of on par right now.”

He added that he was pleased with his ball-striking improvements with his irons.

“I got to actually work on it and try and just keep slowly incrementally working on the stuff that I’m working on right now with (swing coach) Chris (Como), and over time hopefully just sets in and it’s concrete.”

Defending champion Jason Day has started well in Texas.

Meanwhile, Sweden’s Alex Noren, Canada’s Taylor Pendrith, Japan’s Taiga Semikawa and Americans Chesson Hadley, Jake Knapp, Davis Riley and Kelly Kraft all carded 64, but no one could hit the early target set by Wallace.

“It was great. Really solid day,” Wallace said. “Got off to a great start. Three birdies to start any tournament is nice. Just a really solid round of golf.”

It was the lowest PGA Tour round for Wallace, a four-time European Tour winner whose only PGA triumph was at last year’s Puntacana Championship in the Dominican Republic.

“I knew something like this was coming,” Wallace said. “I know I’m building into a good stretch.”

Wallace found a fairway bunker off the first tee but blasted his approach just inside 13 feet and sank the birdie putt, then dropped his approach inside three feet from the hole at the second to set up another birdie.

He landed his approach inches from the hole at the third to set up another birdie, then birdied from inside three feet again at the fourth and fifth holes.

Wallace added birdie putts from six feet at 11, four feet at 14 and a tap-in at the par-5 18th hole.

“Drove it nice for the most part,” Wallace said. “Few times I was in the semi-rough with a bid of mud on the ball which can cause a little bit of doubt. Top up on those, focus on hitting my tee shots well for the next few days and we’ll be in good shape.”

Three-time major winner Jordan Spieth, who can complete a career grand slam by winning the PGA Championship in two weeks, shot a 68.

“I just played the easy holes poorly,” Spieth said. “Played the par-5s 1-over. That was kind of the story of the day. The par-5s you need to be 2.5-under out here each day. I’ll have to make that back up.”bb/dw

Tiger Woods’ Sun Day Red apparel line is finally available, here’s where to get it

/content/dam/images/golfdigest/fullset/2024/4/x--br/20240430-sun-day-red-launch.jpg

The wait is finally over, Tiger Woods’ Sun Day Red apparel collection is finally available for purchase. After 27 years with Nike, Woods announced in February that he’s teamed up with TaylorMade on a collection of golf apparel, accessories and shoes— some of which we got a sneak peek of at the Masters. Several pieces are available now at sundayred.com —and are expected to sell out, fast.

“Personally, I have loved wearing the products,” Woods said. “I am ready to see our brand proudly embraced all over the world.”

Launched Wednesday, the first release of the line is titled “The Hunt.” This 26-piece capsule previews the colors Woods is expected to wear at the PGA Championship later this month—which appears to be a palette of neutral white and black with a pop of coral red that the brand has named "Hunter." Unlike some of the bolder patterns we saw at the Sun Day Red launch event ahead of the Genesis Invitational, the first launch is full of softer shades and solids for a more upscale golfer staple collection than head-turner. In addition to these PGA Championship-slated pieces, the brand has promised a few special releases to come ahead of the second major of the year as a continuation of the brand’s launch.

Sun Day Red 3D Knit Polo

One piece that has been a favorite to Woods himself ahead of the official launch is the Training Day Hoodie. It was designed with Woods’ insights on needing a lightweight layer that’s versatile enough to be worn both in Florida heat and during chilly mornings at Riviera. Woods wanted a pullover he could throw on before heading to the range, so enter the Sun Day Red Training Dry Hoodie. It appears to be available in four colors, including the intro collection’s signature coral red and staples like black, white and brown.

Sun Day Red Training Dry Hoodie

Woods had a heavy involvement in another hoodie in the collection, the 3D Lightweight Hoodie. He was looking for a lightweight knit with a barely-there feel. It’s got a seamless construction that gives it an upscale finish, which is exactly what he was looking for in a casual top to wear off the course. Woods wore a yet-to-be-released blue version of this top on "The Tonight Show" with Jimmy Fallon Tuesday night.

Similar in fabrication and breathability to the 3D Lightweight Hoodie is the 3D Knit Polo. It's a performance-driven top with ventilation throughout the arms and shoulders, but with a knit-like fabric that elevates it well beyond your typical polyester golf polo. Adding to the sophisticated knit finish, the banded placket is designed so it won't buckle and bend, and the shirt hem is engineered to resist riding up to lay flat at the hem.

“I am thrilled with the Sun Day Red apparel and accessories that we have put together,” Woods said. “Every detail has been meticulously designed, prioritizing the athlete first at every step, resulting in a collection that exceeds the highest standards.”

Rounding out the on-course apparel side of the capsule are two shorts styles and two pant styles. Made primarily with a woven recycled polyester, these bottoms are designed to be durable and abrasion-resistant to stay looking fresh all season long. With classic silhouettes, shorts come in two lengths (9-inch and 7.5-inch) and the pants come in an athletic fit or a slim fit option.

According to the brand, the pants feature three key elements specifically for Woods' on-course needs. The back pocket is engineered to fit a yardage book comfortably, the front pockets are deeper so that when Woods' crouches to putt it doesn't fall out or sit uncomfortably and third, there is a discreet stash pocket for a more secure storage of ballmarkers and coins.

Sun Day Red Tour Leather Glove

On the accessory side, the line's initial drop features six hat styles, two ballmarkers, two golf towels and the highly-anticipated Sun Day Red Golf Glove. We'll admit we were a little surprise to see a bucket hat in the roundup, but love the variety of headwear styles the collection released to match any look. Although, it's no surprise that the hats are among the first to sell out in the collection. Three baseball cap styles are already sold out shortly after launch.

The collection also includes several off-course pieces for golfers who want to up their gym style, or just add a few casual styles to their wardrobe. Giving options on how boldly you'd like to rep the brand, the SDR Logo tee features the new artsy tiger logo prominently, while the simple Training Tees feature the logo less prominently at an embossed tab near the hem of the shirt.
