Bridgestone

Tour B Series
TOUR B golf balls were awarded gold medals in the 2019 Golf Digest, Golf Ball Hot List and were the only golf balls in their category to be awarded a perfect score in both Performance and Innovation. The TOUR B series are all multi-layer urethane tour performance balls providing golfers with exceptional feel, accuracy and distance. Bridgestone utilised the data from measuring more than 2.5 million swings in the R&D process to determine how specific design characteristics benefit different types of players.

E12 Soft  
Awarded a gold medal in the 2019 Golf Digest, Golf Ball Hot List!
The Gold medal winning new e12 SOFT balls build off of the innovative 3-piece, Surlyn construction of the popular e6 golf ball with an added dimension of power coming from the new active acceleration mantle layer. This layer increases thrust and provides higher initial ball speeds, meaning you hit it straighter and further.

ERC Soft
The new ERC Soft Golf Ball from Callaway is loaded with innovative technologies, including their largest Graphene-infused Dual SoftFast Core, which maximises compression energy for fast ball speeds, low spin off the driver and high launch for longer distance. The Triple Track lines from their patented Triple Track Technology then adds advanced alignment for improved putting accuracy compared to a regular side stamp alignment aid.

Srixon

Z-Star XV
The Z-STAR XV provides incredible spin, feel, and control, but where it really shines is DISTANCE. Its dual core construction makes every tee shot go farther and every green a club closer. It’s designed for players with a faster swing speed (over 110mph) and is Srixon’s most widely used ball on Professional Tours around the globe. It features Srixon’s proprietary SpinkSkin coating which we’ve enhanced even further to incorporate SeRM (Slide Ring Material). With molecular bonds that stretch but don’t break, SeRM gives you a softer cover that actually digs into your club grooves at impact. 

Z-Star
The Z-STAR provides incredible distance, feel, and control, but where it really shines is SPIN. Its softer overall compression is perfectly tuned to give you absurd greenside spin and control. It’s been engineered for golfers who demand maximum performance and total control around the green. It features Srixon’s proprietary SpinkSkin coating which we’ve enhanced even further to incorporate SeRM (Slide Ring Material). With molecular bonds that stretch but don’t break, SeRM gives you a softer cover that actually digs into your club grooves at impact.

AD333 Tour
The AD333 Tour is designed to offer all the benefits of a premium tour ball for players who don’t quite possess a tour level swing speed. This 3-piece ball is constructed in the same way as our premium Z-Star with the same urethane cover on the outside. The only difference is a slightly lower compression core which allows more regular players, who demand tour level spin and control, to get the most out of a tour style golf ball. It’s been designed to spin less with a driver which minimises the effects hooks and slices so that golfers can drive the ball with far greater accuracy.

Soft Feel
Now in its 11th generation, the Srixon Soft Feel is an old favourite used by club golfers all around the world. The latest iteration of Soft Feel provides even better feel on all shots, improved greenside spin and incredible distance and accuracy from tee to green. Ultimately this is a soft-feeling distance ball designed to launch high with low spin to create exceptional distance and control. The low compression design helps to improve accuracy on off-centre hits giving higher handicapped players more confidence off the tee and from the fairway. It’s ideal for a wide range of players, especially those with slower than average swing speeds. It’s an excellent choice for players looking for a distance ball that doesn’t feel like a pebble – far from it in fact.

Titleist

Titleist Pro V1 & Pro V1x
Faster from core to cover, the new Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls have been designed to leave the clubface with more ball speed and lower long game spin for more distance, while providing the best short game control to help golfers shoot lower scores. Featuring a new 17% thinner cast urethane elastomer cover, faster ionomeric casing layer, and a new 2.0 ZG Process Core, for the first time,  the #1 ball in golf available in high optic yellow colours. For golfers looking for a golf ball that provides total performance from tee to green with a penetrating flight and very soft feel, the Titleist Pro V1 is for them. If golfers are looking for a slightly higher trajectory than Pro V1 with a slightly firmer feel, Pro V1x is their golf ball.

Titleist AVX
Released in the second half of 2018, the AVX golf ball is another addition to Titleist’s premium performance golf ball line-up. Designed for golfers seeking remarkable distance, a penetrating ball flight and premium scoring control, the AVX features high speed, low compression core technology, a new high flex casing layer and thermoset cast urethane elastomer cover. It has been engineered to be the lowest flying, lowest spinning and softest feeling high performance golf ball in the Titleist line-up to date, and is available in High Optic Yellow.

Velocity
The Titleist Velocity ball has been transformed with a softer core and Titleist’s fastest cover blend, generating extremely low spin, even more distance off the tee, as well as producing a high flight on all shots to help stop the ball on the green. Available in white, VISI-White, Velocity Orange and Velocity Pink – the power of Velocity is a ball packed with personality.

DT TruSoft
The Titleist DT TruSoft golf ball was redesigned with a new core and cover to its predecessor. Providing golfers who prefer a very soft compression feel with short game spin for stopping power on the green, as well as producing superior distance through low spin on long shots, the ball maintains the performance quality consumers expect from a Titleist. Available in white and high optic yellow.
