Comparing Every TaylorMade Golf Ball | Which Should You Play?
Playing the right golf ball is essential to playing your best and getting the highest level of performance out of your equipment. It may seem like there isn’t a difference between the ball on the top shelf of the pro shop vs. the bottom shelf, but in reality, that decision could make or break your round.
That’s where we come in. TaylorMade currently offers five different golf balls at various price points as well as customization and visual technology packages. Let’s identify the ball that’s best for your game.
First, here are golf balls that you can choose from:
- TP5x
- TP5
- Tour Response™
- SpeedSoft™
- Distance+
In addition, there are various visual technology offerings to better your game:
- TP5/TP5x pix™
- TP5/TP5x Stripe
- TP5/TP5x Hi-Vis Yellow
- TP5/TP5x Hi-Vis Yellow pix
- Tour Response Stripe™
- Tour Response Hi-Visibility Yellow
- SpeedSoft Ink
Lastly, customization and personalization comes through our MySymbol program offered in both TP5 and TP5x and Tour Response. Before you take our golf ball recommender quiz below, let’s look through the differences and similarities of each ball.
TP5x is the fastest 5-layer Tour ball, prioritizing ball speed for golfers seeking increased velocity off the clubface. It delivers low-spin performance with driver and long irons for more distance, while maintaining exceptional greenside control. The new Speed Wrapped Core makes TP5x now a ½ club longer* while also delivering a softer sound and better feel. TP5x, as well as TP5, comes in high-visibility yellow.
TP5, the softest 5-layer Tour ball, delivers a notably softer feel and enhanced spin around the green with lower driver spin than the previous generation. It is engineered with a new Speed Wrapped Core that delivers a softer sound while promoting a faster, more responsive overall design. For golfers who prioritize touch and feel in their short game, TP5 provides precision greenside performance.
TP5 and TP5x Stripe feature our cutting-edge 360° ClearPath Alignment™, which is a digital band that wraps around the center of the ball with a thin black line to match the sight line on your putter. The design of TP5 and TP5x Stripe aids in lining up your putts more accurately, consistently, and quickly. 360° ClearPath Alignment also gives you immediate feedback on the quality of your roll and helps aim your tee shots straight down the middle of the fairway. On wedge shots, you’ll be able to see how the ball spins off the club face whether you’re trying to hit a low spinner that skips to a back pin, or a soft lob over a bunker.
The 2024 TP5/TP5x pix golf balls build on the groundbreaking visual technology of ClearPath Alignment, which is the most played all-over print visual technology on Tour. Compared to previous generations, the new model features a longer centerline and additional color contrast, offering golfers easier alignment and more precise feedback on the green.
Time to make the most complete Tour ball in golf your own with our range of MySymbol TP5 Balls to showcase your unique style on the course.
The three-piece construction of Tour Response was designed to maximize energy transfer and produce fast ball speeds. Tour Response is engineered to respond to your game with a 100% urethane cover for added greenside spin and better feel compared to ionomer. The soft material helps wedge grooves grip the ball better on shots into the green, while maintaining shear resistance and greater durability. Tour Response is also offered in hi-visibility yellow.
There’s a growing number of golfers who want to stand out from the crowd. That’s why we made Tour Response Stripe™, for those who want to play and experience the game in full color. With its unique alignment features and vibrant colors, golfers get Tour quality performance you can’t ignore. Tour Response Stripe is offered in lime and a four-color multi-pack.
The all-new SpeedSoft and SpeedSoft Ink bring home TaylorMade’s golf ball family for 2024. Through PWRCORE technology, SpeedSoft provides ultra-low compression that combines distance off the tee with ultra-soft feel on iron shots and around the green. SpeedSoft comes in white, yellow and high visibility Ink™. Ink color offerings are green, blue and pink.
Distance+ offers high-velocity performance for distance on all shots. With a REACT™ core, golfers will experience a ball designed for speed with high-speed, low-drag aerodynamics. A noticeably soft feel is achieved with a two-piece construction and 77-compression to maximize ball speed and reduce drag. Also, the new Plus Alignment Aid helps you aim and roll the ball on your intended line.
