It was only around 40* at the 1st tee. Wasn't really bad as I prefer the cold temperatures. This ball does not like the cold. Either one. They were both really short off the tee & the irons. Not sure if it really was the cold air but they seemed to be like rocks off the clubface. Especially short pitches around the green ... a more noticeable "click" sound to them. I couldn't get them to stop at all & the greens were still holding, as I could stop other balls. But these I just couldn't control the distances at all. I was able to hit multiple shots on the holes as there were only about 3 other groups out on the course. With no one in front or behind me, it was a great time for practice. Both balls were considerably behind the other two balls I was gaming at the time, ProV1 & Srixon Z-Star XV. I had to take one club more into the greens & they were about 5 - 8 yards behind off the tee. Not much mind you, but still. They did perform pretty well into the wind though. Didn't balloon or drop out of the sky. That was about the only "Good" thing they did that day. Maybe it wasn't a good test to be out in the cold air? These balls all start out at room temperature, as I keep all my golf stuff in the corner of the Nut Cave in the house. I would rotate the balls on each hole ... warm them up as best I could in my pockets. Hopefully there is still more golf for me before Old Man Winter finally sets in. Sure wish I was retired so I could play more. Oh well. Till next time ...... I'm developing a theory with these balls, particularly the Tour x. Would you mind telling us a bit about your driver swing speed and swing type again.

Would you mind telling us a bit about your driver swing speed and swing type again. Thanks 95 - 100 mph swing speed ... 102 on occasion when I really go after it. But that's not often because it never really works out. HA! I'm more of a sweeper of the ball. Even with my irons. I don't compress the ball as much as I should. That's why my aOa is so negative ... I seem to increase the loft at impact a bit. I imagine if I actually took some lessons I could fix it but I'm too lazy & cheap to get them. It works for me & I can get around any course with it & the ball still gets out there. So .... I just felt like I was leaving something out there with these balls in the cold air. Maybe it was me & my perception of it but constantly coming up short with iron shots to the green got frustrating. Especially when I would drop another ball (my current gamer) from the same place & put it on the green with no problem. So I don't think it was me. I will try & play them again soon just to confirm. Just hope to get out again before the snow hits & closes the courses for a while. JohnSmalls, revkev and cksurfdude 3 Quote WITB: Do I like Titleist or what?

This is exactly why its dangerous whenever someone starts a thread labeled, what should I do (about equipment) or what's the best so and so. There's really no right or wrong answer to that question because it needs more info - just like reviews need more info - you need to know the type of player that the equipment best fits - The guys that I played with on Monday were stunned at the number of woods that I have in my bag but these lofted woods work for me - so much so that I'm longer off the turf with 5 wood than I am with 3 wood (I carry 3 wood because the rules allow for 14 clubs and I do hit it well off the tee). I had birdie putts inside of 25 feet on the two par 3 threes that required 9 wood - the guys that I played with could not hit their 5 irons or hybrids high enough or straight enough to get the ball on the green while I just carried mine up there between all the traps and it stuck. But would a 9 wood be the best choice for a guy who swings 117 mph who might also be a digger? Not a chance. The same holds true for golf balls - the difference between the Pro VIx and the Maxfli Tour x is stunning to me - I haven't seen that big a difference in distance off the tee with a golf ball since the days of balata and top flites. But I thought that there might be a swing type that the Tour x worked for. Beyond a doubt there are lots of swing types where the Tour is a fit - really anyone who hits a Pro VI ball type will like the Tour. Just as Top Flite is no longer made by Spalding, Maxfli is no longer made by Dunlop. When you get to be my age, you may still be alive but your world isn't. You're living in another generation's world. My first golf balls, these coming with the clubs handed down by my uncle, were Dunlops, purchased in Bermuda, that were 1.62" in diameter. That was the official R&A size back then. My first golf ball as a frequent player was the original non-wound Spalding Top Flite (1.68", of course). Both models are long buried in history, even deeper than wound Titleists.. Rev mentions nine-woods. A modern nine-wood is maybe a degree or two weaker than a traditional wooden 5-wood from the sixties. If I were still playing, I'd carry one, too. I wouldn't carry a jumbo head driver like Rev does, though. I'd handle tee duties with a mini-driver / driving iron combo. Modern big drivers come lofted enough--I believe Rev goes with 12º--but you still have to play the ball more forward and tee it higher than I'd be comfortable doing. I like to push tees down almost to the cup. Down to the cup with irons. I usually used a broken tee that I found on the tee box. Rev hits the Pro V1x. What might be a good ball for me if I still played? I'm bigger than Rev (if he goes 165) but older and less flexible. I never played at his level, but I was an eight in my prime with a backswing that never came close to reaching parallel. I still drove the ball 220 yards or more--with a strong fairway wood-- quite late in my recreational golf career. This post is a waste of time--ramblings from my having too much time on my hands. I'm sure you've all dropped out by now, but writing it gave me something to do. I'm not in the mood for fighting on the political forums today, so indulge me. sirchunksalot, fozcycle, JohnSmalls and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked your post - thanks When it was wound, two piece, surlyn or balata I often drove with a 3 wood as well.

First it was 225 cc's then it was 275 then 300, then 385. I'm used to 460 now and don't see what the fuss is but it would have been brutal to go from that old Tommy Armor driver to 460 all at once. I played with a young guy last Friday who plays such a different game from what we could have imagined as kids. Driver, 9 iron into the wind on our 467 yard par 4 from the tips first hole and on and on it went like that all day.

J.B. TexasEx Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) Yesterday, I finally had a chance to test and game the MAXFLI golf balls @ Trophy Club's Hogan Course from the Copper Tees @ approximately 6,650 yards. Fun fact - this is the only golf course Ben Hogan ever designed for a fee and is considered his "singular design" work. He consulted on Colonial and Shady Oaks, but as a favor to his mentor, Marvin Leonard. Weather was in the mid-60s and the wind wasn't really a factor, maybe only blowing up to 10 mph occasionally. It was cooler, so I think my distance was down maybe 1/2 club length through the bag. My recorded statistics; Fairways = 57% GIR = 56% Putts = 29 Overall, I didn't play that great only scoring a bogey golf 90, with a 46 on the front with the Tour ball and a slight improvement of 44 on the back with the Tour X. I drove the ball pretty straight with both balls, the Tour and Tour X, but the X gave me a little more distance. Maybe because it warmed up in the afternoon? I did hit two really bad shots with each ball - a shank leading to a snowman on a Par 5, Hole #6 with the Tour and a stone topped 7-iron that I splashed into a creek on my approach with the Tour X @ Hole #14 from 150 yards. Here's an approach shot that I hit on #1 with a 7-iron from 145 yards out of the rough, slightly uphill with the Tour ball. The ball spun well enough, IMO, based on it not releasing more than 12 feet from a flier lie. I missed the birdie, though, much to my chagrin. Greens were running pretty darn fast. Here's a full pitching wedge that I hit from 118 yards on #10 to a front pin with the Tour X ball. The pitch mark is only about 3-feet away from where the ball stopped, so that's not bad for a full swing with a 46-degree PW. I like that result. Ball flight was a high draw that I carried 120 yards just past the hole. In my opinion, the MAXFLI 3-piece Tour felt slightly harder than the 4-piece Tour X, but its ball flight was comparable. The Tour's performance compared favorably to my usual gamer, the 3-piece K-Sigs. My stock shot is a medium-high draw, and MAXFLI Tour X also performed well when compared to most other premium balls I've gamed; ProV1, TPX5, Chrome Soft, etc. The Tour ball didn't appear to fly as far when struck well with my driver nor spin as much as the Tour X. But, I'm basing this opinion only on my observations and results with pitches, chips, and short-iron approaches. Both are good balls and more than adequate for mid-handicappers like me. If you can spend $35 for a dozen golf balls, I'd recommend saving a few bucks @ DICK's for the 4-piece Tour X rather than dropping $50 for other super-premium offerings. In my limited experience, the 3-piece Tour is comparable to my K-Sigs, IMO, and isn't worth spending the additional money on ($2.92 per ball vs $1.00 each). But, $24 for two dozen, 3-piece urethane balls is hard to beat! Thank you, Costco. Based on my on-course results, ball flight, and performance, your scores shouldn't drop off much, if at all, with MAXFLI golf balls. Given a choice, I prefer the Tour X ball for its slightly softer feel and its better distance off the tee. I'm actually surprised they're both priced the same @ DICK's.

I'm convinced the 4-layer offerings give me more pop off the tee and have better control around the greens. I'd get on a Trackman, get fitted for a ball, and choose my gamer based on real data if I were playing competitively. My HDCP index is 13.8 and I'm on a budget, so I'm happy with my K-Sigs. The MAXFLI Tour X is a better ball, IMO, but the Tour isn't necessarily an upgrade. I make this assertion only on what I see and "feel". I don't expect to satisfy MGS's engineers with my feedback. Maybe I should submit to a blind test? Feel is innate. For whatever reason, the more layered balls "feel" softer to me. Although I'm not sure my touch is sensitive enough to delineate between a ProV1 and ProV1x off the clubface. Put it this way - I won't purchase the Golf Pride ALIGN feature in my MCCs again because I don't think it's worth an extra $2 per grip. I don't "feel" the difference nor think ALIGN gives me an advantage over my regular MCCs or UTx grips. But, then again maybe I'm just a cheap bastard. Edited December 8, 2019 by J.B.

gbtrsc Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Played again yesterday in a scramble. Played the TourX for 13 holes. Once again, was hitting the ball very high with mid to short irons. Especially into the wind. They would really balloon and come up quite short. After switching to my preferred ZStar the ball flight came right down into more normal heights. I also think the ZStar are better into the wind. I’ll continue to use them for casual rounds. The Maxfli are good balls, especially if you need a higher ball flight. Durability is good, on par with other urethane balls. Distance is also good but not tops for me. An especially good ball for the price, and I do appreciate Maxfli, DSG and MGS for the opportunity to try them out and report on them here. J.B.

Although many credible sources including Titleist state that compression is a meaningless number in regards to performance the higher compression x ball will only work well for extremely fast clubhead speeds. So are it seems as if that's the player profile that does well with it. Sadly for Dick's Trackman SS's over 110 make up about 1 percent of all golfers.

03trdblack Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 The X and Tour are only 5 compression points apart which is probably why I couldn't feel as much difference when I was putting them both. sirchunksalot and fozcycle 2 Quote My bag is a revolving door!

The tour however is a better across the board performer and in fact could be a very good choice for a large swath of swing types especially higher launch players looking to control their trajectory. I just played a Callaway Superhot (neon yellow) yesterday and it was as long as any ball I've played. I play the Chromesoft regularly but this is the first time using the Superhot. Based on the name, I suspected it was a high compression ball but it's only a 70. We need only look to MGS archives to get the scoop on this debate. https://mygolfspy.com/the-truth-myths-about-soft-feel-golf-balls/ My results in the Tour vs. Tour X were that the Tour yielded slightly better distances off the tee and long irons. Not much difference in the short game but I did like the softer feel of the 3 piece ball. The Maxfli Tour, at a 90 compression, is similar to the ProV1 I also frequently play. But based on yesterday's experience with the Superhot, it certainly matches the findings of the MGS testing - compression does not play a significant factor in performance. revkev, fozcycle, cksurfdude and 1 other 3 1 Quote G410 Plus, 9 Degree Driver G400 SFT, 16 Degree 3w G400 SFT, 19 Degree 5w ZX5 Irons 4-AW Glide 2.0 56 Degree SW (removed from double secret probation ) ER5v Putter (Evnroll ER5v Official Review) AI-One Milled Seven T CH (Currently Under Product Test) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed!! In my own haphazard, informal and decidedly incomplete testing of the Tour and the Tour X, I also (a very average swing speed player) prefer the Tour all around. To the compression discussion, I'd also suggest that.. IMO .. swing speed alone is not the sole determinant of how you perceive the ball's performance - it seems to me that getting the max performance out of a 4- or more multi-layer ball is probably also tied to how you actually deliver the clubhead to the ball ... ie. I'm thinking smash factor here. For example, do you always hit the ball at, or nearly at, 1.5 with your woods? Or 1.4+ (or whatever the tour pro level is) with your irons? etc.. The Superhot example is a good one - a good player, with a good swing, is able to get the max performance out of *that* ball. fixyurdivot, fozcycle, J.B.

golfbum72 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 On 11/7/2019 at 7:12 AM, fozcycle said: I apologize to the Spy Community for being so tardy on this review. My Cousin passed away recently with no children or siblings, so I stepped up to take charge of him and his estate. I have been in KY for several weeks, after being appointed estate administrator, cleaning out his apt and settling his affairs. That said, I am a long term Spy and have reviewed several items, such as, Cobra Bio Cell irons, Cobra F6 irons, Cobra F8 full bag challenge, Bridgestone B330RXS balls, Vice Pro Soft balls and lately, the Tour Edge CBX119 hybrid. Here is my story: In 1959, the City of Frankfort, Kentucky opened a new park called Juniper Hills, located just west of the city. Juniper Hills included a Par 72, 18 Hole rolling terrain golf course and an Olympic size swimming pool. My Grandfather and his buddies joined the club and began playing every week. I was only 8 yrs old, but my Grandfather decided I was old enough to be his caddy. So I began my golfing career pulling a Bagboy pull-cart filled with Powerbilt golf clubs up and down the rolling terrain of Juniper Hills. As a caddy, I learned the rules of golf and how the game was played. My first set of clubs were a hodgepodge set of old hickory shafted clubs, leftovers from my Grandfather’s old clubs. Ones that he took to Africa when he was building a sawmill to harvest mahogany wood for office furniture in 1948-49. He was a Civil Engineer. They carved out some land in the jungles of the Gold Coast(now Ghana) for a 9 hole course and played it for their recreation. Sadly, today I only have the putter left, so it hangs on the wall above my desk at home. I progressed from the hickory sticks to used Powerbilts that were my Grandfather’s. At age 10, I got my first set of cleats(steel spikes of course). I felt like I was king of the world when I walked around the clubhouse area going clickety-clack, clickety-clack. I spent my summers at Juniper Hills, just a mile from my home, caddying in the mornings then either hawking lost balls, putting for pennies or playing in the hot Summer afternoons. I witnessed a Hole in one at age 13 when one of my friends aced the 140 yard Par 3 #6. For my High School Graduation, my Grandfather gave me a new set of Powerbilt irons. I got my Ace in August, 1985 at Pine Ridge Country Club in Winnfield, LA. When I moved to Florida in 1987, I was a 10 Handicap, gaming Nicklaus Muirfield irons. Unfortunately, I was either working, or playing with my 4yr old daughter so I did not get much time to retain my handicap and watched it slip to an 18. Fast forward through the years to now, I have been playing with a 6” steel plate, 13 screws & an inch of my left hip bone in my left wrist (ice skating accident in 1998). The inch of my left hip was to make both arms the same length again. Because of the injury, my handicap ballooned to the mid 20’s for several years, so I moved to graphite irons to reduce as much vibration as possible. I was able to get my handicap back down to 13 for a few months in 2011, but that did not last. For the past several years, I have been bouncing between 17 and 22. I also have two Ligaments damaged in my Left Ankle(too many ankle sprains). The Dr’s offered surgery but I declined because I was not ready to stay off of it for 4 months. I am an Accountant(Ky State Univ. 1977) that retired in Jan 2017 and played 4 days a week wearing an ankle brace. I got tired of the brace and decided to play without it. I joined a 16 week nutrition class at the V.A., watched my intake and began excercising, losing 22 lbs this year. Now I can walk around the neighborhood without pain and ride a stationary recumbent bike. If I can lose another 15 lbs, I will be very happy. My drives usually range from 185 to 205, with an occasional 220 and my 6i is my 150 yard club. I am 68 years old, with an 15 Handicap, and play golf 3 to 4 times every week. • I play at Pebble Creek Golf Club, located in New Tampa, just 7 miles from my home. Been playing there for 10 years. Now retired, I Ranger there 2 mornings a week and play 3 times. The course plays 6436 from the Blues(71.1/127), 6032 from the Whites(69.1/122) & 5516 from the Gold(Senior Tees 66.3/111). I now play the Gold Tees. I have been running the Saturday Game at Pebble Creek for 10 years. We average between 30 - 50 players each week in our Stableford Points game. Twice a year we have a 2 day tourney. Annually, I book a 12 to 24 man Buddy Trip to the Kissimmee FL area. It’s a lot of work, but a lot of fun. • My Bag is as follows: Cobra Ultralight Cart Bag(Peacoat/Silver), F8 Driver(10.5*) & F8 3-4(14.5*) Fairway & 5-6(18.5*) Fairway w/Mitsubishi Tensei ck Blue regular shafts, F8 3 Hybrid, 5 Hybrid & 6 - LW w/Mamiya Recoil 460 ES graphite regular shafts. The irons are all 2* Flat . All clubs have the Cobra Connect Lamkin Grip with Across Tracking Sensors. Currently not using Arccos our to issues with the iWatch. • I waffle between an a Evnroll E6 and the Tommy Armou4 Impact No. 3. Both provide excellent balance for a smooth swing. • My current ball has been the Srixon Q Star Tour. It performs well for a medium speed mid handicapper(15.0) such as myself. I have played Maxflis most of my life. That was my Grandfather's ball of choice and so it became mine. In recent years, Maxfli has introduced several "tour" like balls. The most recent is the Tour CG and the Tour X CG. Both of which I had before this review. I have mostly played the Tour CG but this week put a Tour X CG in play and shot an 81, with 10 pars. I must say, even though th flight path was lower than usual, I got the yardage I wanted and the ball would stick on the green. I have not performed a salt test.....yet, but intend to try it. I have a check-go and will examine the balls with it. Hopefully, more to come .... This is a box that my Mother gave my Grandfather for Christmas one year(1950's). It contained 6 individually wrapped Maxfli Dunlop golf balls. My Grandfather kept the box, then my Mother kept it. They are no longer with us so now I keep the box, using it to store golf items. Maybe that's why I like Maxfli. T Fozcycle- What in the heck were you doing at Pine Ridge in Winnfield? (My old home course), Did you ace #3 or #6 Or big dog drive #4for a hole in one? Just curious?

fixyurdivot Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Yesterday I grabbed a sleeve of my Tour X balls for play. I had offered them up to a couple of the better players in our group here in Yuma, but they are die-hard ProVer's. In summary, the one I played the round with performed great. I had stated earlier that as compared to the Tour, they X felt too hard on the putter... but I honestly did not notice that yesterday. Off the tee distance seemed about usual on really well struck drives as did fairway woods and irons. Sometimes these side by side comparisons are difficult. I think I have made the "better" choice for my game... but maybe not? fozcycle and cksurfdude 2 Quote G410 Plus, 9 Degree Driver G400 SFT, 16 Degree 3w G400 SFT, 19 Degree 5w ZX5 Irons 4-AW Glide 2.0 56 Degree SW (removed from double secret probation ) ER5v Putter (Evnroll ER5v Official Review) AI-One Milled Seven T CH (Currently Under Product Test) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfinnut Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I'm hoping to get out this weekend for an unexpected January round. I need to clarify my thoughts on the X again. I'm leaning towards that ball as the best between the two for my game. It's a great ball for the price point for sure.
