Maxfli Tour Golf Ball Review

Having previously tested the Maxfli Tour X golf ball while also briefly exploring Maxfli’s history as a golf ball brand, it’s now time to turn our attention to Maxfli’s other premium golf ball, the Maxfli Tour. Without getting into a deep discussion about golf ball nomenclature, it’s pretty much universal these days for manufacturers to have two premium golf balls , with one being a standard model and the other, for lack of a better description, an “X” model.

Oftentimes, the difference in performance between the models doesn’t end up being that significant. That is not the case, however, with the two Maxfli premium golf balls, as the Tour and Tour X proved to be very different animals in my testing. While the Tour X was impressively powerful in the long game and slightly lacking in terms of greenside control, the Tour model was almost a polar opposite. That said, both would rank among the best Maxfli golf balls .

The Maxfli Tour golf ball delivered impressive spin and greenside control in the short game.

I’ll start with the construction of the Maxfli Tour, which is a three-piece golf ball as compared to the four-piece Tour X. The Tour also has a slightly larger core to help promote improved energy transfer and more speed on full shots, and its cast urethane cover was utilized to promote soft feel and maximum greenside spin. And it was on and around the greens where the Maxfli Tour was at its best.

When compared to the Tour X, as well as a few other premium balls ( Pro V1 , Pro V1x , and TP5x ) that I tested it against, nothing created more spin or provided a softer feel than the Maxfli Tour. It was simply exceptional in that regard, and I felt as though in any conditions and from any type of lie that I could control the golf ball when playing chip shots, pitch shots, and full or partial wedge shots. It also felt superb off the putter and I was a big fan of the alignment aid positioned on the side of the ball.

The alignment aid on the Maxfli Tour golf ball was a nice feature on the greens.

On the flip side, when compared to the balls I tested it against, the Maxfli Tour was consistently about 8-10 yards shorter off the tee and a half club shorter on full iron shots. While I didn't have a launch monitor at my disposal during testing, I feel comfortable as an experienced player in chalking up those disparities to higher spin rates for me across the board on full shots.

Distance is certainly a big deal in golf today, but while the Maxfli Tour might have been somewhat lacking in that regard during my testing sessions, it did offer other long-game benefits. Most notably, it was extremely accurate and I found that I could work the Tour quite easily in terms of flighting the ball up or down and moving it left or right. In that regard, the Maxfli Tour took me back to my younger days of playing iconic Maxfli balls like the HT or Revolution.

Additionally, in spite of the soft feel that I experienced on every shot, the Maxfli Tour’s cover was extremely impressive from a durability standpoint, which in all honesty I wasn’t expecting after some initial testing at the short game area at my club. The Gloss White version that I tested – there are also Matte White and Gloss Yellow options available – also maintained its color well even after significant use.

It was easy to control trajectory and shape shots with the Maxfli Tour golf ball.

While there was plenty to like about the Maxfli Tour, based on all of the testing that I did, I would give the edge to the Tour X as far as what I’m looking for in a golf ball. At my age, distance losses are significant and I felt that the yards I was losing in the long game would be more difficult to gain back with the Tour than finding alternative ways to generate the stopping power that I was sacrificing around the greens with the Tour X.

That said, for low-spin players who need all the help they can get when it comes to greenside control or for more talented ball-strikers who use spin to work the ball on full shots, the Maxfli Tour is definitely worth testing. I also believe that the Maxfli Tour would be an outstanding option for better players in colder, winter conditions.

Furthermore, any discussion about the Maxfli Tour golf ball also has to take price into consideration, as at a retail price of $34.99 it is a tremendous value for the performance it offers. Will it be a perfect fit for everyone? Probably not. But it will be a great fit for some, who will in turn reap the benefits of its value price point. And it’s certainly going to be a tough golf ball to beat from a performance standpoint by anything else that's on the market at the same cost.

Maxfli Tour S Golf Ball Review: A Coach’s Perspective

The Maxfli Tour Golf Ball is like the perfect car for golfers: it feels right, and it works great. Picking a golf ball should make you happy and confident when you play. Lots of balls say they are soft, spin well, or fly far. But the Maxfli ball does all of this really well.

As a golf coach, I’ve tried them myself and really liked them. They’re not perfect though. I also asked my students what they thought. They had mostly good things to say as well.

In this Maxfli Tour S Golf Ball review, we’ll talk about why this ball is special. Opening a box of Maxfli balls is like getting an exciting gift. They look good, and they play even better. When you hit them right, they go far and straight, even farther than some other balls. Sure, they’re not top-of-the-line balls, but the price is what makes them a great choice.

So, let’s dive in and see why these Maxfli balls are worth trying!

What Does “Tour” Mean?

Ball quality, dimples and aerodynamics, compression, feedback from testing, who is maxfli, 1. titleist avx, 2. bridgestone tour b rx, 3. wilson staff triad, final thoughts, maxfli tour s golf ball review.

• Impressive Driving : Many users have noted that these balls provide standout distance, easily rivaling the more renowned competitors.
• Masterful Spin : With the Maxfli Tour, you’re not just hitting far, but you’re hitting with precision. They offer great spin control, especially in the short game.
• Affordable Quality : Perhaps one of its standout features is the price. For a Tour ball, the Maxfli offers solid performance at a more wallet-friendly price.
• Competes with the Best : User reviews often compare it favorably with the Titleist ProV1s, a gold standard in the golfing community.
• Feel on the Putt : Some golfers have mentioned that the putting strike might feel slightly harder than they’re used to.
• Adaptation Period : Like any new equipment, it might take a round or two to fully adapt and see its potential.

The golf ball industry is a competitive field with several brands vying for the title of ‘Best in Class’. Maxfli might not always be the first name that springs to mind when we talk about top-tier golf balls, but their Tour range is proving that they deserve a seat at the table. If you’re considering the Maxfli Tour golf balls, this review will offer a balanced perspective on what you can expect.

Before diving deep into the product specifics, let’s decode the term “Tour”. Contrary to what some believe, “Tour” doesn’t refer to the PGA Tour or any professional golfing circuit. It denotes that the ball boasts a urethane cover and typically more than two inner layers. The result? Enhanced distance, minimized spin off the tee, and precise spin control during the short game. In essence, “Tour” signifies superior flight and spin control.

The ball is manufactured in 3 pieces, the core made from synthetic rubber, surrounded by a mantel covered by Urethane. This ball comes with 318 dimples.

Interestingly enough, the manufacturing of a Three-piece golf ball can require more than 80 steps and take more than 32 quality checks, and takes up to a month to manufacture. Next time you by accident lose a ball remember the hard work that went into that lost ball. I know normally it’s the ball’s fault but still.

Dimples play a pivotal role in determining a golf ball’s performance. A golf ball’s trajectory is majorly influenced by aerodynamics and gravity, and it’s the dimples that help optimize this flight. Maxfli Tour balls are engineered with a specific dimple pattern to enhance lift and improve both flight length and spin. Golf ball design has come a long way from the old elastic band designs to today’s advanced urethane covers.

When we compare the compression with the Titleist Pro V1x, the Maxfli Tour offers a similar feel and performance. It strikes a balance between distance and spin, which is often determined by its compression.

In my time testing the Maxfli Tour golf balls, I’ve been genuinely impressed. They’re competitively priced, especially when you consider their performance is on par with the ProV’s. They’ve quickly become a favorite of mine, and I’ve integrated them into many of my rounds.

During one of my coaching sessions, a client with a GHIN of 5.7 remarked, “These balls are something else! They’re cheaper than the ProV’s and yet, their performance doesn’t falter.” Another one of my senior clients specifically praised the soft feel and the impressive distance these balls provided, a sentiment that’s crucial for players in that age bracket.

Perhaps the feedback that resonated the most was from a long-time player I coach, who after a session, said something like this to me, “I’ve played with a lot of balls over the years, and this is the first one that genuinely rivals the top balls in terms of performance. It covers great distances without losing that soft approach touch on the green.”

If you’re seeking a ball that offers the attributes of higher-priced counterparts but at a more affordable price point, the Maxfli Tour could be your next choice. Whether you’re a senior golfer or a professional aiming for a lower handicap, it seems this ball has something for everyone. As always, consider your playing style and preferences before making the final call.

Maxfli is a well-known household sports brand name proudly owned by Dick’s Sporting Goods bought on February 11, 2008, from TaylorMade Golf. Maxfli is most recognized for its golf balls, but later adding golfing umbrellas, golf bags, gloves, and training aids to its Maxfli name arsenal.

Surprisingly almost all high-quality golf balls come from the same country. Maxfli is manufactured in a high-quality-controlled factory by Foremost in Taiwan. The quality of manufacturing speaks for itself.

Maxfli Tour and Tour X Golf Ball Review

More in reviews:.

50 Words or Less

The Maxfli Tour and Tour X golf balls make interesting claims about the benefits of “Center of Gravity Balancing.”  Promises higher, longer ball flight with CG alignment.  Solid value for a urethane-covered ball.

Introduction

Golf ball marketing tends to be pretty repetitive.  We hear over and over about balls being softer, longer, or spinning more.  Maxfli’s new Tour and Tour X golf balls bring something entirely new to the party: a claim of higher, longer ball flight when you align their marked center of gravity.  This was a claim I couldn’t wait to test.

On the green, both the Tour and Tour X feel very similar.  Both are soft with a slight “click” similar to a Pro V1x.  When you get to a longer putt – 20 feet or more – the Tour X does feel a little firmer, but the difference is slight.

In the long game, both Maxfli Tour balls feel comparable to other premium, urethane-covered golf balls.  Well struck iron shots feel soft and crisp.

Bold claims demand stringent testing.  Maxfli has some of the boldest yet, stating that with their CG alignment line, you can hit longer, higher, straighter drives, so we subjected the ball to a complete Golf Myths Unplugged test HERE .

You can click the link to get the full story, but the long and short of it is that we found very little difference between drives hit with the line correctly aimed versus incorrectly aimed .  We did see some evidence for the idea that “aligned” shots flew higher, but we did not see strong evidence for improved accuracy or distance.

Leaving the marketing claims aside, the Maxfli Tour and Tour X performed comparably to other tour balls .  Ball speeds were strong and consistent, and spin rates were within the expected ranges for a tour ball.

According to Maxfli, the Tour and Tour X have similar short game spin.  My launch monitor testing found this claim to be accurate – I could find no consistent difference between the two.  In comparing them to other premium balls, I found them to be slightly below average in terms of spin.  The Tour and Tour X spun about 10% less than a Pro V1 on a full wedge shot .  That’s plenty of spin to hold a green, but low spin players that want to see the ball zip back may prefer another ball.

While aiming the Center of Gravity Alignment Line at the target was not a panacea, the Maxli Tour and Tour X are still very solid golf balls .  At $35 per dozen – and much less with certain promotions – these urethane-covered balls perform comparably to balls that cost $50 per dozen.

The Maxfli Tour and Tour X are only available at Dick’s Sporting Goods and Golf Galaxy.

I was looking for a high performance ball at a good price. Thought I give the Tour X a try. Not as soft as my TP5, but performance was just as good. I already hit a high ball, so I was looking for some added distance. With this ball, I’m starting to keep up with the young bucks off the tee. A well struck approach shot stops pretty quick. Loving the change and the great price.

A good ball won’t have a center of gravity far enough off from center to make any difference. A good test is to dissolve epsom salts in a bowl and float a golf ball in it. Wait until the ball settles and stops spinning. Then place a 1/4 inch square of lead tape on the top of the ball. If it turns with that small change, it is balanced. If it takes more than that small amount of weight to make the ball turn so a different side is up when it stops, the ball has a center of gravity that is off-center. It will not putt consistently. It will tend to turn off line as it slows down near the hole. That is accentuated on fast greens.

Dicks has them on a 2 dozen for $50 sale now. Mygolfspy website rated it as a very good ball, and it goes far for slow swing speeds (my experience is that it does go farther than a Q star tour). Just out of curiousity, how did you find the durability (I found that I could bruise the cover with a full sand wedge, and I am not a fast swinger– but it could be I had a couple of duds)?

I didn’t notice the durability being an issue. I haven’t gouged any with one shot.

Hi Matt, I just bought Maxfli Tour CG and they feel tacky out of the sleeve. Is that normal?

I don’t recall these balls feeling tacky. I would suggest playing a sleeve and if they perform strangely, take them back.

I did notice that the soft cover can get scuffed, cut somewhat quickly. Otherwise. Very nice ball. Stay away from the matte. Much less white and get dirty quickly.

Matt, I still use the Maxi fly 6 piece ball six-piece tour I know they don’t make them anymore but I bought quite a few dozen of them when they quit making them. They are still my favorite ball compared even to the prov’s.I’m just wondering what you thought of that Maxi 6 piece ball and if you checked the center of gravity at all. I am 75 but I hit the ball a pretty long way and my handicap is around 7 so with that being said I do favor that 6 piece ball wish they still made it. Just wanted to get a professional opinion of that ball. Thanks for your time

Unfortunately, I don’t have any experience with the 6-piece Maxfli. Sorry I can’t help.

I have played these balls for the past three months. Just walked nine and shot a legitimate 36. For the price (2 boxes for 50 bucks) I am sold. I am 51 years old with a 7 handicap. I played with same ball for all 9 holes and it could probably play another nine tommorow .

I’ve been buying these at 2 for $50 and on occasional flash sales for $19.98 a dozen. I won’t say that they are quite Pro V1 quality, but they are awfully darned close. In fact the performance is so close that I am more than willing to give up a few hundred RPM of Backspin and 2-3 yards. What they do have over the Pro V1 is just a shade of forgiveness, probably the slightly less backspin/sidespin helping out here . It’s no slice correction ball such as the Polara, or Bridgsetone E6, but it does help my baby draw stay a baby draw. I really have to screw the pooch on my swing in order to get a duck hook. They certainly blew the Cally Chrome Softs out of my bag for both distance and accuracy. At the current price this ball can be had for, it’s really kind of stupid to spend the money the big boys are asking for therir product. Especially when most of them offer no discernible gain in performance.

Just hit my first HOLE-IN-ONE with the Maxfli Tour yesterday! Needless to say just ordered two more dozen! Matte Green!

I be been playing the Tour and Tour X . Bottom line , I love the ball. It gives me everything I look for in a premium ball. The $$ is just what the doctored ordered. All the guys in my playing group have hit it with positive feedback. I remember the “Black Max” ball from years gone by, the Tour & Tour X represent!!

Unfortunately, even professional golfers struggle to find a golf ball solution that will help improve their game. It’s not necessarily that they can’t hit the ball far, but rather their swings are inconsistent, and their distance control is subpar. 

But with so many brands and varieties available on the market, it can be a minefield figuring out which type to opt for.

Thankfully, I’m here to help you separate the wheat from the chaff. In this article, we’ll explore Maxfli Golf Balls.

The innovative design of these golf balls has made them the preferred choice among players looking for a high-performing option with enough forgiveness to allow them to take complete advantage of their skills.

Our Top Maxfli Golf Ball Picks

Short on time? These are Golf Circuit’s top picks for Maxfli Golf Balls:

???? Maxfli Tour X –  Best Overall Maxfli Golf Ball

???? Maxfli Softfli –  Most Budget Soft Golf Ball

???? Maxfli Straightfli –  Best Ball for Hitting Straight Drives

Who Is Maxfli?

There’s no doubt that you’ve probably heard of the Maxfli brand. They’re renowned globally for their golf balls, specifically in the beginner and mid-handicap markets.

Dunlop and TaylorMade previously owned Maxfli until settling in with the well-known sporting retailer Dick’s Sporting Goods since 2008. 

Though Dick’s Sporting Goods own them , there’s some speculation that TaylorMade Adidas Golf still manufactures them in a facility in Korea under the previous licensing agreement.

Maxfli has moved away from the premium market, instead focussing on distance balls and equipment for the beginner.

Why Choose Maxfli?

When they first began, Maxfli was a premium golf ball company before switching their focus to making excellent distance balls.

And their excellence in making distance balls didn’t go unnoticed.

It’s the very same golf ball John Daly utilized when he led the PGA Tour in driving distance. So if you value distance over every other aspect of Golf, then Maxfli golf balls will appeal to you and your style of play. 

Maxfli’s golf ball range is easy to understand, naming them to reflect the ball’s construction appropriately.

So choosing the best fit for you and your game is simple and accessible.

And, if you’re a golfer who wants to enjoy the game but not break the bank, then MaxFli could be the brand for you.

Even though they’re affordable, they don’t scrimp when it comes to quality. So you can get outstanding performance at a great price if you choose Maxfli. 

The Maxfli Golf Ball Range

So, now you know who Maxfli is. And who their range is aimed at. But I’m sure you want to learn more about the golf balls themselves. After all, that’s why you’re here!

I’ve tried 7 of the best Maxfli Golf Balls available on the market today, so you don’t have to. Read on to find out more. 

The Maxfli Tour Golf Ball 

Maxfli Tour is a golf ball designed for players of all skill levels and abilities. The golf ball features a core made from Hyper Speed Core technology, making it easier to control the ball even when struck off-center.

The core formulation is exclusive to Maxfli and the high flexural modulus mantle. Put simply, it’s made stiffer to support the softer core without compromising on speed.

In addition, the Tour Golf Ball has a softcover for increased distance but remains the same 318 dimple pattern seen in its competitors. 

Key Features:

• Strike a balance between distance, feel and control with its’ 3-piece construction.
• The premium cast Urethane cover lets you maximize performance from a more durable golf ball without losing the feel. 
• The aerodynamic 318 dimple pattern creates high surface coverage for consistent, stable flight.
• CG balancing technology means there is an identifying mark, so you know on which side the ball is perfectly balanced.
• It averages a compression of 85, making it firm.
• $34.99 a dozen.

If you want a ball that’s consistent in quality at a steal of a price , then I suggest you go for the Maxfli Tour golf balls.

It’ll make you stand out as a long driver, even if that’s not your forte. Though it does take some time to get used to, you might find the putting strike a little too hard.

But like any new golf ball you try, practice makes perfect. And it’s a great excuse to get out on the green to take them for a spin. 

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, the Maxfli Tour golf ball is an absolute steal. I’ve found it has a low driver spin and a higher greenside spin with a performance that’s as good as the tour-grade balls available on the market.

The only thing that sets it apart is the price.

The Maxfli Tour X Golf Ball 

Maxfli Tour X Golf Ball is a premium performance golf ball. Made with the most advanced aerodynamics and construction technology, these balls are designed to provide maximum distance that’s also accurate.

In addition, the soft-feeling cover allows for a great feel at impact. The Tour X features the same core technology as its Tour counterpart, but with a higher compression score averaging the high 90’s, making it extra firm. 

Just like the Tour version, the best part about the Tour X balls is that they’re affordable. With a $34.99 per dozen price tag, you can’t find a better deal on golf balls anywhere else on the market.

• Premium cast Urethane cover featuring aerodynamic 318 dimple pattern for stable flight. 
• CG balancing tech aligns the ball’s inertia with the target, reducing spin and allowing for optimal ball flight. 
• Core construction combines an Ionomer layer to create a soft feel with optimal spin and even higher ball speeds.
• It has a 4-piece construction and a higher compression score than the Tour averaging around the high 90’s. 
• Competitive price at $60 for two dozen.

Quality construction and aides to improve players’ games seem to be a running theme for Maxfli. Another ball with consistent quality at a great price, the 4-piece Tour X, is faster than the Tour and produces a more iron spin.

I’ve found that you get some additional spin from the driver, and when doing partial wedge shots.

The distance is there with the Tour X, and you’ll find that it’s as long as any other premium ball on the market.

If you’re like me and enjoy any aides available, then you’ll like the additional alignment from the CG balancing technology. And it makes them stand out from the crowd. It’s another quality ball from MaxFli at a great price. 

See the Tour X here.

The MaxFli SoftFli Golf Ball 

Maxfli SoftFli Golf Balls are designed with a low compression rating of 35. This means that you’ll get a great feel on all your shots from a ball designed with that in mind.

In addition, the soft compression design provides an excellent level of forgiveness because they offer a softer feel during your swing.

The core design of the SoftFli ball delivers the softness while still being able to achieve those high speeds and long distances. 

• Maxfli’s softest golf ball at an amazingly low 35 compression.
• Softer feel and faster ball speed thanks to the reformulated core.
• Soft Ionomer cover for a high greenside spin and increased control. 
• The 332-dimple design gives consistent ball flight across all clubheads. 
• 2-layer design for accuracy and distance.
• At $19.99 a dozen, they’re another affordable option in the MaxFli collection. 

The most crucial factor in choosing your golf ball is what type of golfer you are.

If you’re looking for a ball that will maximize distance without sacrificing control or feel, then the MaxFli SoftFli Golf Ball might be an excellent option for you to consider.

It’s also worth noting that these golf balls were created by professional golfers who know exactly what they want out of their game.

The Softfli golf ball from MaxFli is perfect for players who want a minimal spin on the tee but a maximum spin on the green.

The low compression means you can reach higher speeds while maintaining accuracy on your aim. I’ve found this ball has improved my game and is easier to see on the ruff than its counterparts. What’s not to like?

The Maxfli StraightFli Golf Ball 

The StraightFli golf ball is designed for distance, accuracy, and control. This golf ball is one of the best-selling models on the market today. It has an aerodynamic design that consistently provides maximum distance from tee to green.

The design of this golf ball also promotes a high launch angle , which enables players to increase their reach without sacrificing accuracy.

In addition, the weight distribution ensures better clubhead speed for increased distance as well as enhanced stability on off-center hits. 

• Compression score of 80 . 
• 20% straight flight than other MaxFli models. 
• ‘Find the Fairway’ Dimple design uses 374 large and small dimples for reduced lift.
• 2-piece construction blends accuracy and distance perfectly. 
• Ionomer blend gives excellent greenside spin. 
• $20 a dozen. 

The StraightFli does exactly what it says on the tin: it flies straight .

All the marketing says that it’s MaxFli’s straightest-flying golf ball to date. And I have to say, they’re not wrong. Even rigorous lab testing shows that it flies 20% straighter than other models in MaxFli’s repertoire.

In addition, I’ve found that although it has more rebound than other models, it’s very forgiving and perfect for putting in practice. 

This golf ball is perfect for players looking to improve their game on a budget or those who want to purchase multiple sets to try different types of balls out before committing to a complete set of Maxfli Golf Balls.

It especially lends itself to becoming part of a collection because it fills a niche. If you don’t have a golf ball that’ll help correct your aim, then the StraightFli will make a great addition to your golf ball ensemble.

The MaxFli SpeedFli Golf Ball 

The Maxfli SpeedFli golf ball is a highly engineered, high-performance golf ball that has been designed with the goal of improving players’ distance.

The engineers at MaxFli have worked hard to create a high-performance golf ball, but one deserving of the price tag. The SpeedFli is made from two materials at its core: Tungsten and Titanium.

These materials provide the ball with excellent efficiency, durability, and increased distance compared to other balls on the market.

The SpeedFli is available in different weights as well, which means it can be used by players of all skill levels without sacrificing their game.

• Maxfli’s fastest golf ball in their range
• The 332-dimple design encourages higher initial ball speed and a lower spin, giving you more distance. 
• Titanium and Tungsten core for improved elevation from improved aerodynamics . 
• Metal-infused Speed Core allows you to hit higher speeds. 
• An ionomer cover gives greenside spin and control.
• 2-piece construction for a blend of speed and a quality feel. 
• $28.99 a dozen makes it affordable.

If you want to impress your golf buddies with impressive speed and distance, opt for MaxFli’s SpeedFli. They are fast.

And they’re durable. Which they’ll need to be thanks to the blistering speeds they can reach in the hands of a veteran.

The metal-infused Speed Core and combo of Titanium and Tungsten really give the ball a kick. The improved elevation and ability to hit higher speeds really are noticeable. 

I found the driver strikes were typical, and approach shots from full irons felt reasonable. They’re not spin-centric, though.

So you might need to get creative in the bunker or rough. All in all, a good golf ball for speed at a reasonable price. 

The MaxFli UFli Speed Golf Ball

Like the SpeedFli, The UFli Speed golf ball is built purely to produce the highest ball speeds and the greatest distance. It has a 4-layer design, packed with MaxFli’s standard technology to give you distance and a great feel.

The mantle layer in the UFli is produced to reduce any spin you might have off the tee. While increasing those speeds so you can hit a great distance.

As always, the Urethane cover found in other gold balls in MaxFli’s repertoire reduces spin. And you don’t have to sacrifice control to get it. 

• Another fastball in MaxFli’s collection that optimizes energy transfer for great distance without sacrificing control. 
• The dual-layer Speed Core is metal-infused for explosive speeds. 
• Mantle layer that reduces spin from lower lofted clubs. 
• Maxfli’s usual Urethane cover formulation will maximize greenside performance with a soft feel.
• Quasi-Cuboctahedron 318-dimple pattern for a consistent flight thanks to high surface coverage.
• Firmer overall compression of 95.
• $29.99 for a dozen.

The 4-piece dual-core construction of the UFli Speed produces a higher speed. And you’ll find the thinner mantle will increase spin on middle iron shots.

So you’ll get better overall control. The dual-core construction really is a game-changer for me. Especially as it’s offered in other tour-grade golf balls, but at a much higher price. It feels like MaxFli really is about making quality golf balls accessible.

No matter your skill level or how deep your pockets are. And the UFli Speed is no different. 

There’s also a UFli Soft available from MaxFli if you’re after a softer ball and nicer feel. You’ll get low spin and higher rebound from it to reach greater and greater speeds. Watch out; you might break a few records with this bit of gear.

The Maxfli Revolution Distance Golf Ball 

The Maxfli Revolution Distance Golf Ball is a golf ball that was created as an option for players who want more distance and feel more confident with their swing.

The product’s unique design has also allowed it to be hit further than traditional golf balls because it’s made with a softer core so that it can get some extra lift off the ground.

This is important because most golfers spend up to 80% of their time on the ground during a game, which makes the difference between hitting a long shot or crushing your drive.

In short, the Maxfli Distance golf ball really is all about reaching maximum distance on all shots. 

• 85 compression means it’s firm and has a great feel. 
• 2-layer construction and a large core for a long and high flight that’s fast. 
• Maxfli’s usual Ionomer cover continues the great feel while giving an excellent greenside performance. 
• Dual-radius dimple design for low spin and high launch means it’s optimized for great distances. 
• $21.95 for a dozen means they’re incredibly cheap. 

Like most of MaxFli’s golf balls, they do exactly what the name suggests. And the Revolution Distance golf ball is no different.

They enable you to hit long and fast shots while keeping the nice feel you become accustomed to using MaxFli’s golf balls.

It comes down to what you want from your golf ball based on what you’re trying to achieve.

If I’m trying to hit shots as far as possible, of course, I’ll reach for the Maxfli Distance. But if I want an all-rounder, I’d probably opt for something else in their collection.

It might be more difficult for amateurs and pros alike to find consistency with their shots.u003cbru003eu003cbru003eIt also doesn’t offer as much flexibility in terms of distance control. This could be an issue for some pros who struggle with determining where they want the ball to go on certain green complexes.u003cbru003eu003cbru003eThe key factor separating them might just be the price point. While the Supersoft is definitely more popular in the market, the SoftFli is cheaper, making it more competitive considering how similar they are.

Understand The Pieces

Like learning anything new, you’ll need to know what makes them tick to decide the best golf ball to use. And how they’re made. 

See More: What Is Inside A Golf Ball?

First up is the core. It’s the epicenter of the ball. The engine that drives the speed, velocity, and performance of the gear.

Each core gives different characteristics to the ball and will affect speed and distance. Next is the mantle, which sits between the core and the cover. It helps fine-tune spin and can create maximum distance.

The thickness of the mantle will define how much spin there is on the golf ball. Lastly is the cover. The cover affects the aerodynamics of the ball and can impact distance depending on its firmness. 

Need, Budget, And Ability

Each of these will alter what ball you settle on. First, figure out what you need the ball for and how much you’re willing to spend.

It’ll help narrow the playing field, which makes things easier. Then think about your ability level.

Essentially, you want to choose a ball that neutralizes your weaknesses. So you’ll have to be honest about where you could improve your game. 

Test, Test, And Test Some More

It can’t be said enough. Making a final selection will come down to a lot of testing and fine-tuning.

If you have the gear to monitor your shots, use it. The data collected will be invaluable to choosing a golf ball that improves your game.
