Thanks for watching the Golfalot Titleist Tour Speed, Tour Soft, Velocity & TruFeel Balls Review. - Спорт
I’m a 16 handicap. I use Titleist TruFeel and Bridgestone e6. I still lose too many golf balls to justify playing an expensive ball like a ProV1. I really enjoyed the video. Thank you.
I started with using the new Bridgestone E6 also now I use the restored pro V1’s same price as 12 tru feel and 12 bridge stone e6 I felt bridge stone are heavy after using the prov1 I think a used restored prov 1 is still better than a new lower end ball but I could be wrong the NEW Kirkland balls and PROV1’s are what I use now can’t get away from them
Thanks for getting in touch with this feedback. We agree, ProV1s are extremely expensive if you're losing balls on a regular basis! Please subscribe to our channel if you haven't already to see more great buying advice.
Would be great if manufacturers offered mix boxes where you still buy a dozen but get three balls of esch flavour. Cannot justify buying four dozen just to see which ones i like….playing Callaway supersofts at the moment
I play the Trufeel- a great ball for the price, and suits my handicap
they had a titleist rep at the course and he said they all go about the same distance plus he gave out 2 ball boxes of all their line just for listening to him for a few minutes which was wicked nice.
I recently bought the TruFeel and found out that it copes most with my requirements, i.e. long enough from the tee, soft enough on chipping or pitching and reliable on the green.
Srixon soft feel in winter and q star tour in summer. Great value balls.
i use range balls. best value out there.
Awesome job. I've been playing the TourSoft 2020 version, partially because I read the package and trusted Titleist's description. I'm basically a bogey golfer that likes control above distance and, as a side note, I really like the T-shaped "aiming" line for putting. It's really helped me visualize the line and square up the putter face more effectively. It's saved me a handful of strokes every round just from the 4-6 foot putts I always seem to leave myself.
Nice job at the Evian, Sophie!
Great to see some numbers on the TruFeel, so thanks for this, Sophie! People rarely test it. I think it's just a fantastic value for anyone from around high single figures up to 30+, and for players with driver speed around 95 and below. And that, of course, is most golfers on the planet. I'm a 4 hcp at the moment, and it's a perfect ball for me, too. Just enough spin, high-but-not-too-high trajectory, nice feel, and I pick up about 7 yards with irons and fairway woods over a firm tour ball. And I love it around the greens, although I don't use a lot of spin, so I don't care about urethane anyway. And you still get Titleist quality at a great price!
I’ve recently got the pro v1x after using their online fitting tool (in yellow) I’m enjoying them so far and on the course it does feel like I’m hitting them better with the irons than I did with cheaper distance balls. Feels like they have the right trajectory
Hands down the best golf ball test I’ve ever seen. This is my first Golfalot video, it won’t be my last. New subscriber here. Hoping you’ve done or will do the same test with other brands and their claims. Thanks
Thanks for the review. When I started getting back into golf last year I bought used/refurbished proV1s, but realized quickly that I was losing too many. I wanted to play new and relatively high quality balls for consistency, but couldn't justify the cost of new Pro V1's, so I tried Tour Speed. Been playing them since and love them. I'm not a long hitter, but they seem to pop off the face enough to get me decent and consistent distance. They're great for chipping and I love how they putt as well. All around great ball and while they still cost a bit, they're not as much as the super premium balls.
Excellent content Sophie yours is becoming my go too channel 👏... I'm a vice pro user and have been for a while, I've tried all the premium ball's against the vice pro and the differences are immeasurable, but for me at around £2-30 a ball it's a no brainer definitely over a pro v etc.....
Thanks for a comprehensive review, I have watched lots of YT Ball reviews and yours is defo the most useful for non-Pro Golfers👍👍
Personally, I use the Inesis Tour900 ball from Decathlon at £27.99 per doz with a Urethane cover and PROV1 feel & performance, what's not to love. I pick them up from my local Decathlon store on my way to play👍👍
I've been playing the Tru feel for most of this season and really like them. They seem to be a bit longer than the Callaway Supersoft with decent control around the green. The covers do tend to wear pretty quickly if your grooves are clean sharp.
The Velocity is a great ball distance wise and as i (and other mid handicaps) tend to underclub/ mis more greens short than long the extra run-out helps. Great review.
One of the better golf ball reviews on UA-cam. Clear & concise comparison with a very practical commentary. Paying the most definitely isn’t the best for everyone. Personally I prefer a ‘soft feel’ ball especially off the putter
Thank you so much for your review. It is very helpful; Titleist has been my favorite and Pro V1 has been my ball, but now I am trying other Titleist balls.
Love your channel!
Great review! One of the best things with Tilteist is their marketing because it’s amazing how many brand new ProV1’s I find on almost every round. 😎
My wife an I never have to buy another ball for the rest of our lives. Every fall we walk in the woods and re stock our Pro V 1 stash.
"Pro V the most found ball in the bushes".
Have not brought a pro V for 4 years.
Excellent review thank you!
I used to feel that a golf ball did not matter. After working in the golf industry taking care of greens and fairways I started playing a lot more golf. Working at a course I had unlimited access to golf balls, I found that I really like a softer golf balls. My preferred ball is the Wilson Duo soft
You should try the Wilson Duo Professional ball. Premium ball at a 60 compression.
Great ball, Wilson
Great job on the review. Nice info 👍⛳️
Great review. I started the season with Srixon Q-star Tour and now play the Titleist Tour Speed.
Thank you for the most honest review! ❤
What a thorough review! Really enjoyed this, thanks.
A super review and I will try different balls now - thanks
Great video Sophie interesting test. The only one of these I am not a big fan of is the velocity. But in the winter with several layers of gear on I will use them. Generally my favourite is the ProV1X especially in the summer. If I find a decent ball I always try it you never know.
I love all your reviews. I use Trufeel and I love them so much. Good price and great performance
Job well done, great information.
Great info Sophie. I think I’m a TruFeel guy based on your research. I love the green side softness.
This was a great comparison, thanks
Excellent review, well paced, concise, good blend of hard data and feel. Minimal idle talk (good). All golf youtubers should take note: this is how a good product review is done.
Exactly! I enjoy her reviews,I "never" feel like I got roped into a video that wasted my time, And I am a senior and my swing speed isn't much different than hers, so I love Sophie's reviews, and take serious note of her thoughts on equipment .
100%
Thanks for the information Sophie.
Great video… I did my own testing on several balls with a budget in mind. And chose maxfli tour x. Really is a hidden gem
Long time ProV1 player (14hcp) Thought I would try a few other's, AVX, Velocity, TruFeel. Hated AVX and Velocity but TruFeel a surprise. Good distance, fine for my short game. Durability OK but I get a new ball out every time my handicap is on the line. And I can get them for half the price of a ProV1.
This is a really well executed test. Very helpful to weekend warriors...they can save a lot of money just paling the trufeel.
Definitely one of the better ball testing videos, great work
My favourite ball is the Bridgestone RXS (I'm a 15 HCP) but they are a little expensive at CDN$65 here in Canada. Love the feel and spin. Can also get the older BRX for CDN$40 which is still very good. As a backup I'll grab Srixon Z-Stars or Q-Star Tours when they have a half price sale at Golftown. Don't feel as bqd when I lose them. Sophie I really enjoy your reviews. Keep 'em coming.
super review, as a golf snob my ball of choice is Pro V1 but may try tour speed, thank you Sophie
Older woman just changed to Tru Feel. Red to see more easily when walking towards it. Love it.
I get distance and soft feel around green. See what happens when our very wet and cold long winter here in Australia moves on . Great review Sophie. Tks. 🥶🥳🇦🇺
The Titleist Velocity has been amazing for me. Absolutely love them.
same! I have been using them 2 years now. I really like the feel of them.
I really like the Srixon divide, for vertical alignment when putting and horizontal for pitching, looks cool when spinning. Titleist ProV1x is a great ball but not as bright as others. I also like Bridgestone in bright orange on cloudy days or bright white in a blue sky. I dont lose many balls, in fact I often find them as my course has lots of snakes and ppl wont look for them.
Im watching this as Titleist is doing a ball testing day, perhaps I will hit the ones I like in the bushes....
Really good comprehensive review, personally I can't justify buying pro v1's with my current (lack of) ability so these cheaper offering would suit me better
Loved hearing you on the Evian Masters commentating, big fan Soph, need you to go whip Crossfield and Lockey again!
Great, thorough review.
Good review. I like to play Pro V1. Primarily for its characteristics around the greens. But I find the Tru Feel is a close 2nd and like the price much better.
Great video Sophie, always wondering what ball to go for as slow swing speed but set ones just don't work , spent fortune trying different ones and a lot donated to the rough and water , loved you sky commentary , greetings from Ireland
Great video, I use the Kirkland Signature as it performs well and is a good value ball. It has a 3 piece construction with a urethane cover and is only £15 per dozen.
Appreciate the review, very worthwhile. At a 70+ age & driver sw speed that tops out at 85, I need all the distance I can get and I've been playing the velocity for the past year w a low spin driver (sub zero, now LS). When I was comparing drivers I found surprisingly it was actually the ball that mattered more than the driver (velocity was always farthest)! Previously played cal supersoft but these are longer. I get the maximum distance with the extra run out (over pro v1) and can keep up w many half my age. I'm just now switching to the tru-feel for the added short game spin (which I've come to realize is missing in the velocity). I usually find enough pro v1/x's in a round that I probably would not need any balls but actually prefer the extra distance /run out of the other balls. I'm glad you pointed out the pro's don't have to pay for their pro v1's. (free AND many are paid to play them).
I bought tour speed 2 years ago enjoyed them but durability was a factor in my changing to the tour soft. Almost the same ball except for higher flight with my irons and driver. But way more durable
Hi Sophie, i'm currently experimenting with a range of soft golf balls including the Titleist True Feel, which i plan to use on my next round. Currently my best golf ball is a Dunlop tour soft, which as far as i know aren't in production any more, but they came free with a second hand golf bag i purchased. Hopefully i can find one which will suit my game so i can stop swapping and changing balls and pro-v's are totally out of my price range. Thanks for the great review.
Really enjoyed this video. As I have actually tried all of these, my favorites are the TOUR SOFT and the TRUE FEEL.
Im a bit of a FEEL player, and these do feel very good off my clubface to my hands.
I game SIM2 MAX OS irons and am 59 years old. These golfballs launch high helping them to land at a steeper angle, which i have found helps me not only get them to the green, but hold the green as well.
Great video Sophie. 😎
LOL, I posted just now. I'm turning 59 in October and I'm also a Tour Soft player. I think it's good for us "older" players because we're more control/feel players and don't care if we have to take more club than some of the young guns.
I’ve been using the Tour Soft, but it looks like I could use the True Feel and really not notice any difference. Thanks for the review..
nice review, and it's nice to see someone that comes up with the same results that i've seen (and i'm certainly not a pro, just a about a 3 handicap). I did come up with slightly different conclusions, though. If i could get my hands on Pro V1x's easily, i'd certainly do it. They're fun to chip around the green. But i can't, and i've foud the Trufeel is best for me. I noticed you came up with similar #'s that i did -- primarily on the irons, you were showing it was about 8 yards longer than the Prov1. That's almost a club difference, and that's what i like about it. I play it because i get slightly more yardage on the iron shots. Hitting a wedge instead of a 9 iron, or perhaps a 7-iron instead of a 6-iron, are potentially huge advantages. A good approach shot can hide some poor chipping skills :) And the poor chipping skills aren't because i don't want to get better at it, it's just that it's a facet of the game that's harder to make time for practicing it.
Excellent review, I have been playing the AVX but that True Feel and Tour Speed look great as well
I started with Pro V1, but loose a few to many to justify the cost. Now I use Tour Speed. This video was very well done and helped confirm my decision.
Fab review that I can actually understand - am a high handicapper never use Titleist Balls - might try Tru feel ? Give it a go !
Hard to see past the Kirkland Signature v2, they can stand up to the big players and the price is fantastic, you don’t need to call in the coastguard if you loose one, unlike a ProV 1
Great content, very professional,you should be up at 100 thousand subs🤞👍
10 handicapper playing the tour soft. Almost exclusively played the Pro V1. Love the slightly additional roll out on the greens with the tour soft versus the Pro V1. Most amateurs come up short on shots into the green so this makes more sense. Really like the alignment tool.
Lately I've been gaming the Pinnacle Soft as it has excellent distance and really soft feel around the green. At $19 for a 15 pack and manufactured at the same plant as the Prov's they are a great bargain. I always thought they were cheap junk but they have really improved the quality of these ball's and I think they should be in more players bags. Give them a chance I think you'll be surprised!
i buy and play the pinnacle soft also for the same reasons. they used to be like rocks now they are a decent ball. i only play pro vs when i find them.
I use the Titleist Tour Soft because I can go with nice, smooth iron swings and still get great performance from them. The lower compression is right where I want it to be.
A little late watching this one but a great review and perfect timing leading into the 2023 season :) Thx
ANOTHET GREAT VIDEO from Sophie!!’
I'm a 6 handicap and generally play prov1 or the Tour soft.
Why tour soft instead of tour speed?
@@terrykay7709 the reason is feel and performance! I have a high ball flight and the tour speed has a higher spin rate than the tour soft.
You are awesome
Great videos
Thanks for the great video still trying to decide between tour speed and the pro v 1s any suggestions thanks joe
I have changed to the srixon ultisoft..wow! Very good feel, distance and really good price..I am off 10 and was a big fan of the e6 soft before but these are overall better
Great video Sophie, v interesting. I have traditionally used srizon AD333 mainly due to price but have started spending a bit more on tour speed or s star. Will certainly give the tour soft a try and possibly the tru feel as a winter ball.
I use tour soft and ad333, both very similar ad333 little softer off the driver but not enough for me to be unhappy.
I find both feel similar off the putter so changing in and out during around is okay and iron yardage/ performance I don’t see any difference.
I tried pro v1x and off the driver it gave me the higher spin launch I needed, plus more distance. However it was exceptionally different around the green and liked to miss a few putts ☹… left me thinking waste of money.
Have been using the Trufeel for a couple of years and have been very pleased with them. Advancing age means that I can no longer justify a premium ball and these fit the bill.
Nice review. I play Snell MTB Black. It's a combo of price and performance for me
I’m using the Tour speed after a review saying it was good for my swing speed (85-90 mph) I’ve found them great for distance and have measured them with my pro on trackman. Nice feel off the putter as well
I bought Srixon soft feels to learn the game. I'm 68 years old and still experimenting. Like your reviews Sophie.
I like the high ball of the Velocity but I love the feel of the Trufeel of the face of my trusty Taylormade Modena 8 putter. I use both golf balls now and then.
Great video!
I find what helped my game the most was playing the same ball rather than whatever I happened to find or whatever was on sale that week. Much easier to be consistent around the greens :)
I loose far too many to be spending Pro V money...so Tru Feel is what's in my bag.
I used to buy premium balls, I tried TruFeel and actually really like them.
I am a 16 handicap and was using the snell prime. I am going to look into the tour speed. I appreciate the great review! @golfalot
Sophie Walker you got skills ! Great vid.
I got 10-20 more yards in Velocity & my Jaws wedges spin too much, so Velocity even helps in the approach. The vast majority of other balls are about the same.
Game the Tru Feel highly recommended - putting takes a bit of getting used to
I also am a 16 handicap. I was playing Titleist AVX before I came across TruFeel. I honestly can't tell a difference except for in my wallet! I Love The TruFeel balls! Great video Sophie!
Sophie Great review like always. Quick question, after you change your irons to ping, what is your WITB at the date
Thank God you said - Different balls are doing different things!
Have used Trufeel which are ok for me as a high handicapper !
I have used a whole bunch of balls while I am trying play this game tru feel is working for me !
I play soft compression balls like Precept Lady/Laddie or Titleist Tour Soft/DT Solo I like that they are easier to pick up or take off and normally they are cheaper
I’m Playing in the moment a 18 handicap doing well with the Titleist Tour Soft, have a Hight launch but I would like something with more feeling and softer. Thanks’ for the review Cheers Ernst
Great review I would like to see more of these comparing the premium of a brand to their budget type ball. I like using the Taylormade and would love to see the distance compared to the Response and the TP5
Buy the tru feel people great ball
I have been a ball snob for most of the 60 years I have been playing golf, always using premium balls. Now 81 years old with a 17 handicap. I have been experimenting with about 20 different balls in the new PGA Superstore in Rockville, Maryland, checking carry, total, ball speed, back spin, side spin, height. Everything from the left dash Pro V1x and Bridgestone BX to the Callaway ERC Soft and Supersoft. Can't say I loved the feel and sound of the extremely soft balls, and have to admit that the hard feel and sound of the extreme high compression balls made me feel like I had to work too hard. At my swing speeds I am pretty sure regardless of what the manufacturers say that I can't compress the firmest balls anywhere near what a pro does and thus simply cannot get the same type of performance. Sure, anyone can play a 100 or 100+ compression ball, but you can't tell me that a 120 mph swing and an 85 mph swing will make the ball work the same way. So a week ago I decided to buy sleeves of the Titleist Tour Soft, Taylor Made Tour Response, Wilson Duo, and Volvik Vivid (white only). Would have bought the Srixson Soft Feel but they don't sell single sleeves. The Duo was obviously soft, but almost too soft, producing a slightly dead sound and feel. Could be wrong, could be my swing that day. Anyway, I played 18 holes at a local course on Thursday and used the Titleist Tour Soft. I thought the feel and sound were fantastic, and it was long with the driver. To my mind, it was probably the kind of feel that a pro has with the premium, firmer balls like the ProV1. I got excellent feel, height and stop with mid irons and wedges, and excellent feel with the putter. I did notice that it is possible to nick the cover slightly with wedge grooves. Just a tiny bit. That could be because it is a two-piece ball with a different cover material, a "thin 4CE grafted cover." Not sure what 4CE is or what grafted means. In contrast, the Tour Speed is a three piece ball with a urethane cover. I will test all the soft balls using the Foresight Hawk practice bays at the PGA Superstore to see if I can confirm with data which one works best for me, but the Titleist Tour Soft was a really nice ball I would recommend for any recreational golfer wit less than scratch level swing speed.
I find that the Kirkland V2, a three piece ball works just fine for my game. Inexpensive and the feel suits me. I have played a number of brands and designs but always come back to Kirkland balls. I think many golfers, especially the weekend warriors either don’t care and play anything, including the “experienced “ balls due to cost or have no interest in getting a fitting.I was fitted years ago when I had a new set of clubs made and the fitter recommended Pro V1 and Bridgestone e6. Decent balls . Important to me is to stick to one brand to determine what’s right for me.
My favorite ball is the Kirkland. It has the most control and feel for the money at $27 USD for 24 balls. Great value!
I switched to Tour Speed and like them fine. Previously used Snell, and still do, but they've been hard to get.
Maxfli tour x is what I’ve been using. Best ball for the price!
I play Snell MTB Black. I'm getting back into the game after a layoff. Got a new knee and a new hip. Physically, I'm good to go, no limitations from either. But I'm not yet the player I used to be, and I'm not playing for money, so I'm saving a little on balls. Not that I could tell the difference between a Snell and a Titleist anyway. Whatever differences there are on paper are well within the margin of error for my swing.
Price mainly but always like to test first. I use Wilson duo soft..... Obviously when working full time and a more serious golfer
I'd use a premium ball.
I'm 25.4 handicap Sophie. So Pro V1 and Pro V1X are out of the question for me. I was using TourFeel lake balls or new TrueFeels, because I wanted better control round the greens. One of my club pros put me on to Wilson Duo Optics, which are soft and I love them. I have had a 20 and 22 handicap performance for my last two rounds. Thanks for this
The Wilson Duo is a vastly underrated ball 👍
@@mikewyant7124 They are, Mike. I have been using the Duo Optics for a while. My club pro said to me that the Duo Soft and Duo Optics are as good as each other. Not much between them, feel wise.
Winter in the U.K Srixon Distance. Summer Srixon Q Star Tour are a good choice.
I was a chrome soft fan until I was given a two pack of the tour softs to try they will be my ball of choice from now on
Seed golf balls, brilliant !
True feel, soft off the driver and irons, yet crisp on the putter. $24 dozen
