GolfSpy MPR Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Members of the MyGolfSpy forums tend to focus on performance and data rather than hype and branding. Perhaps no piece of equipment has demonstrated that more than the ball. MyGolfSpy testing has shown that balls with no Tour presence sometimes perform every bit as well as brands with well-compensated sponsored players. In the 2019 Most Wanted testing, the Maxfli Tour and Tour X golf balls performed very well, being rated as the equal of balls costing far more. Now it's time for a dozen MGS Forum members to test this ball for themselves, to see if this will be the ball for them! Testing the Maxfli Tour will be: @Maltenator @03trdblack @revkev @fozcycle @the_hammer @jddaigneault Testing the Maxfli Tour X will be: @SteddyGolf @DrMJG @golfinnut @gbtrsc @J.B.

Watson was 5’9” 165, I was 5’9” 165, Watson hit high draws, I hit high draws, for some reason it made sense to me to use the same equipment (even though I was a huge Jack fan).

DrMJG Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) I am very excited. I think the last time I played any Maxfli was back in the wound ball day. That would have been sometime in the early 70s when the brand I most often played was "found". This will be fun and enlightening!

fozcycle Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I have played a Maxfli balls off and on for many years. I have a Dunlop/Maxfli gift box that my Mom gave my Grandfather way back in the 1950’s. It originally held 6 cellophane wrapped balls. I discovered the box when my Mom passed 10 years ago. I keep special golf items in it. I am thrilled to test and review the new Maxfli Tour CG ball.

Maltenator Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Thanks MGS for this opportunity. I've never gamed a Maxfli. Every time I find one I leave it where it lies, or pass it on to a friend.
