New Titleist Tour Soft balls?

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any info about this new ball that was released today? How does it compare to the other Titleist ball lineup? Or other balls on the market? Seems like it's a ball meant to compete at the $30-40 price point. IMG_0324.PNG

Titleist needed to do something. They have lost some ground with there tour ball. There is room to grow in the mid level 2 to 3 piece balls. Also think that the new colors of the velocity ball will improve sales. Just my thoughts

My practice ball is Dt Trusoft, gamer is prov1/v1x. After great performance and value of dt tru, wouldn't buy tour soft, but play them if found. Was never really warmed up to nxt tour in general, since this replaces it, not tempted to purchase. Can't see short term gains over trusoft.

Isn't the chrome soft a urethane ball?

 

The True Soft a surlyn/ionomer/non urethane ball.

 

 

That alone places them in different markets.

Indeed, but I use DT Tru for practice. I never really like the feel of NXT or NXT tour. ProV or Z-star is my gamer ball. I like just enough click in a ball to be prevalent. If I did try another ball, it would be from a order direct company (snell, vice, cut) by way of a sample pack. At times can get decent spin via Dt tru, not urethane level spin, but awfully close, for me.

If you've never tried the Snell MTB you owe it to yourself to do so. I was a long time PV player and made the switch to the MTB about a year ago and never looked back. I still test and dabble and I will purchase and play other balls, but the MTB had been the king of the crop for me. 2 new balls coming out this year, the red and black. You can get the original direct right now for $25 a dozen free shipping.

Been a fan of the NXT for a long time and long standing Titleist guy. Somewhat because I'm not shelling out $50 a dozen for proVs. Sorry to see them go, but looking forward to checking out these.

I saw a commercial on GC for this ball today. First I heard of it. When the commercial started I thought it was going to be for the AVX, wrong.

Might be a tough sell for a 2 piece, non-urethane ball to compete at that price. We will see how it goes.

So tomorrow. I'm taking part in a conference call with the Titleist ball people including some of the top R&D team.

 

I don't know the agenda. But I'll be happy to share whatever I learn (thst is allowed to be shared)

 

I believe there will be a chance for Q&A. If anybidy has any questions (serious ones, thst won't get me kicked off the call) that you would like answered. I'll see if I can get one or two in.

Serious question - Titleist is comparing the TourSoft, an ionomer ball, to urethane balls from the competition based on distance and feel. How does the TourSoft compare to urethane covered balls with regards to stopping power? Both on full shots and around the green?

A serious and a legit queston.  I have to think part of the reason for this call has been all the discussion/debate about this ad.  I'm sure they will address it, and I'm sure there will be follow up questions to it as well.   i'm very curious to here what they have to say.

I can't wait to hear what they have to say. If the spin is anywhere comparable to a urethane ball, then this is alchemy. I'm not holding my breath, though.

So, going to a Golf Show today, talked the the Titleist guy. Told him I was a Q-Star Tour player, which I was at the end of the season. He gave me a 2 ball pack of tour soft. Looking forward to putting this ball through the paces.
