Micah T Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 I was thinking, “I’m not sure I want to try the ‘23 for a while: I’m still all in on the ‘21 X. And since I have 2 full cubes in the basement, I’m not sure I’ll have to for awhile…” Then @chisag mentions that he returned some ‘21 for the new ‘23… If all they changed was the alignment/cg stripe I’m sure I’ll love this version too. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I’ll be playing this ball until it’s as expensive as a ProV1x. sirchunksalot, GolfSpy SAM, Kenny B and 2 others 3 1 1 Quote Driver - Cobra LtDxLS 3 Wood - Ping g410 LST 2iron - Titleist U505 Irons - Ping i59 Wedges - Vokey Sm9 Putter - Mizuno Mcraft IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jared52 Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I’ve been looking for a ball for my son (11yo, 180 driver total distance) who has been using the Maxfli Softfli. He wants more spin f around the green so I’m thinking of the Tour S for him. I have used the Tour and Tour X but I’m not good enough to tell the difference (hovered down to a 12.5 but currently 17 going through swing changes). I planning to do the 4 for 119 deal in store as I have a 20 off 100 coupon I got in the mail. Curious if that’s a good ball choice for my son since it’s much harder than the Softfli which is a 35. Most kids he plays in tournaments with use tour balls and he drives it just as far as they do.

MrPerfect Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Got a chance to go out to a course and compare the Tour vs TourX. It was good to see the outside results match so closely to what I was experiencing in my sim. These two balls perform so similarly for me through the bag. The only difference I see is the X is probably 10 yards longer off the tee, and a little firmer. I feel like I read so many reports of guys with my SS (110-112) saying the Tour was longer off the tee, that I was happy to get out and see my own results for the X. I have always played the higher compression version of balls, so I am not surprised to see the trend continue. Just hoping to get one of those $20 off texts, and then I'm heading in for the 4 pack.

GS/Sam was joking but there are plenty of golfers that will buy a ball labeled Tour Soft over a ball labeled just Tour. So on that alone it makes marketing sense. My guess is green side spin will be no more than 1 foot difference, if any. But off the tee they certainly may spin a little less and fly higher which would help the higher index that slices. Again probably more a selling point than an actual obvious visual difference. But if it spins a few hundred RPM's less and curves a little less it can mean the difference between the water and the rough. ... The S is a little softer feeling than the Tour off the putter, but I think you need a direct comparison to really tell the difference. It isn't like the difference between a Chrome Soft and a chrome Soft X. ... My hot-take is the better the golfer the less difference they will find between the Tour and Tour S. But the higher index, inconsistent ball striker may find less curve along with better green side performance. So here's a question for ya @chisag. I played the Tour for the past 2 seasons because it was longer off the tee, had plenty of zip to hold a green, and I could split the big box with my 72 yr old dad who has a much lower SS and isn't all that consistent of a striker. We could both reap benefits that the Tour could offer. Would the Tour S suit us both the same way that the Previous Tour did? Or are we better off sticking with the new Tour? Or even going separate ways? Going off of your last comment, is the Tour S a ball that I would find performs similarly to the previous tour while my dad could reap further benefits? If that's the case I'm all in on that idea. Last question.. is it possible that the Tour S could actually be a decent "soft" option for faster swing speeds? sirchunksalot 1 Quote PXG 0311 Gen 5 9°/ Fujikura MotoreX F1 6X F6 3 Wood 14* / Kuro Kage Silver 65X F8 6 wood 20* / Fujikura MotoreX F3 6S RADSpeed Hybrid 24* TS1 4-GW / FCM Precision 6.5 Rifle TSW Wedge - 56/12 EAS 1.0 / Grip master 2.0 MAXFLI Tour CG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azstu324 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Ok because I'm an impatient sumb!tc# I just went out and bought the big boy box of the Tour S. ALL IN! Came home and went shot for shot on the Mevo with each to get some #'s between the new Tour S and last year's Tour. Very interesting! GW-7i is what I'm mostly concerned about. I noticed that each club was roughly the same spin on both balls and that's really nice. Saw about 10 yds lower flight with the Tour S, and about 5 yds longer carry, also with the Tour S. So they perform as designed and advertised. Maxfli Feel is nice! Not a marshmallow at all. Noticeably softer than last year's Tour BUT plenty of feedback and feel, which can sometimes be an issue with other "soft" marketed balls and higher swing speeds. I think the Urethane cover helps with retaining more of the feeling. From the center of a forged iron face, it's quite nice. I'll be taking a sleeve for a spin on the course in the next day or so to get some driver data and short game performance.

Seems I am a little late but here is my opinion. Ya never know til you try em! I have been playing the Tour so I have-not done any further experimenting with the S. I am a little surprised you produced the same spin with both balls playing your gw-7i. While I have not been on a LM the S definitely rolls out a little more for me with my irons. Not bad with MIM Tours but the lower spin Forged Tecs are not a good combo with the S for me. And therein lies the rub. ... Not only do our swings make a difference with the balls we use, the equipment can also make a difference. In my last 2 fittings I was spinning the ball around 2600-2800 with the Stealth 2 HD but only around 2200-2300 with the TSR3, and sometimes even lower. I would ideally like to be around 2400-2600 so the S might work well with the Stealth but not the TSR3 where the Tour X might even be a better fit. But then my irons might suffer with the S or X and the Tour works well for me. Around the green I did not notice a lot of difference with the S or Tour but as you know we have had an unusually wet winter and course conditions have not been hard and fast as normal. I just ordered the Cobra King Tours and will sell my Forged Tecs so no more spin disparity with two different sets. My concern will be summer at Raven when the greens rarely show a ball mark and I can use all the spin I can get. ... So in the end you just need to experiment on your own to find how each ball works for your game, which you are doing. I have a feeling the S will be an OK ball for my game but not as good as the Tour when the overall performance is considered. As soft and windy as it has been I probably could have been using the S but wanted to stick with one ball this winter. It will be interesting to hear how the S works for you and your Dad. azstu324 and GregGarner 2 Quote Driver: Qi10 10.5* ... AutoFlex Dream 7 SF405 Fairway: Qi10 5 wood ...

azstu324 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Just took out the Tour S for a round. These are long and straight! Spin off the driver was noticeably lower and keeping the ball on the fairway was NOT an issue. Any stereotype about "soft" golfballs being short.. completely busted by the Tour S. Today was a breezy round playing 1-2 clubs + into the wind. Flight was noticeably lower with long irons and woods. The only thing I really couldn't get a pulse on was green side performance. Played Toka Sticks in Mesa. The greens are rock hard and the size of a picnic blanket so we're used to playing the chip n roll on these. So far I'm pretty happy and will use them again on Friday for my next round. I honestly don't think these fit the stereotypical "soft" description just based on compression, cover material, and performance.

I've been playing the Tour X since last summer and still have a dozen left, but wanted to compare it to the Tour S since I like the feel of a softer ball. I don't play spin much around greens; I have much better control with a runout game. Yesterday was the warmest day of the year so far and a perfect time to test it out. Well, I'm happy with the distance and shots around the green. Without any wind I was hitting the ball further than I did with the Tour X downwind. Pitch shots fit my game perfectly. Weather has turned chilly and windy again, so my next outing will see how fly in poorer conditions. azstu324 1 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I liked the tourX version marking because it made me focus on rolling the entire equator as opposed to just looking at a straight line, same concept as the half golf ball practice aids you can buy. I can see how some people would find them distracting, but I thought it was a good paired down version of the triple track which a ton of people have success with but looks waaayy too busy for me. And I have a marking kit but feel like it never comes out 100% so just liked the convenience and always having a perfect mark. Oh well, I still have ~24 left from my cube and as you said I still can stock up on last years if needed. chisag 1 Quote JK Driver: Callaway Rogue 3W: Callaway Rogue Hybrid: Callaway Apex Irons: Callaway APEX 21 Wedges: Cleveland RTX6 Zipcore Putter: PXG Hercules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azstu324 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Another update on the Tour S (so far my 2023 ball) This is NOT a "soft" version of a Maxfli. I say that in the sense that it doesn't feel like a marshmallow or play like a stereotypical soft branded ball. This is indeed a Tour level ball in every sense. It's simply the softer core of the new releases but has some pretty awesome performance if it fits your game. I had a chance to play a full length round at a course where I use all of the clubs in my bag and during pretty windy conditions. The ability to flight this ball was pretty awesome! Quite a few times I needed to keep the ball lower to cut through the wind and it did everything that I had hoped for. Length off the tee is noticeably longer and somehow straighter.. like laser straight! The same applies for iron shots both off the grass and off the tee. Full length shots with short irons held the green pretty well. Short wedge or green side shots still seem to check up and so far no less than the original tour from what I can tell. Feeling off the club face and putter is a "firm soft", but the ball still has a heft to it so you get the appropriate feedback when needed. Some "soft" branded balls that I've tested in the past just get lost at higher swing speeds and feel like they bounce off the putter face like a rubber ball which I've never liked. Lastly, durability seems top shelf with these. I played a whole round with the same ball and it'll easily make another round. So far I'm pretty darn impressed with the the Maxfli Tour S and anticipate using it for 2023. highdraw_osu, Kenny B and Fred Mitchell 3 Quote PXG 0311 Gen 5 9°/ Fujikura MotoreX F1 6X F6 3 Wood 14* / Kuro Kage Silver 65X F8 6 wood 20* / Fujikura MotoreX F3 6S RADSpeed Hybrid 24* TS1 4-GW / FCM Precision 6.5 Rifle TSW Wedge - 56/12 EAS 1.0 / Grip master 2.0 MAXFLI Tour CG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'm set with my ball of choice, I expect a lot of chatter in this thread in the next few days.

One good thing should a person choose the Maxfli ball: the odds of being able to identify your ball go way up! You won't be asking "does your Titleist have a red mark?"

Many more Kirklands/Titleist for sure but I turned one of my playing pards on to the Maxfli Tour ball so completely different markings are a must.

You won't be asking "does your Titleist have a red mark?" One of my favorite things about this ball. Maybe I'm one to stray away from the masses as my previous ball was a Vice Pro in lime green. But its funny to see the looks I get from the Titliest snobs at my Country Club. I cannot recommend these Maxfli Tour S enough.

If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have much golf retail in the Raleigh-Durham area. I like ease of picking up equipment at easy to get into and out locations. I actually like these stores and the quality of staff has improved. Because there is more to life than just golf, and Dick's has repeatedly and loudly proclaimed its agenda-driven disdain for what was once a major component of its customer base.

To clarify, I meant, like what is more to life than golf? -- golf is life; life is golf BTW -- some time ago I was abducted by space aliens. I was confused for a while with their conversation until I realized they used the word "playing" for "living" and "golfing place" as the name for Earth.

They are pretty friendly until you start beating them. They threatened to kill me with a freakin' laser beam.
