The Titleist TruFeel is the brand’s softest compression golf ball, designed with beginners, slow swingers, and budget-conscious players in mind. Here at NCG we were impressed with the previous generation of the golf ball, but how does the new Titleist TruFeel perform? Find out in our latest Titleist TruFeel golf ball review.

Titleist TruFeel Golf Ball Review: NCG Summary

4.5 star review
NCG SUMMARY

The latest Titleist TruFeel did seriously impress me and even exceeded some of the expectations I had for it. It features a True Touch core and a new 3.0 TruFlex cover, this two-piece golf ball offers durability and a surprisingly decent spin performance at lower swing speeds.

While it may not suit high-speed swingers due to lower ball speed and reduced control on full shots, it remains a solid option for those looking for a soft, forgiving golf ball at an affordable price.

PROS

  • Quick ball speeds off the driver
  • Loads of forgiveness
  • Affordable price

CONS

  • Not as suitable for quick swinging golfers

First Impressions

This isn’t the normal style of ball I play, but I’ve never really hit one to find out why. The Titleist TruFeel is the type of ball that a lot of the players I coach will play for longer distances, so it’s absolutely worth me knowing how it feels and how it performs.

NCG Review

The TruFeel lives up to its name. It offers a noticeably soft feel across all clubs. However, compared to premium multi-layer balls, I did think it does lack a certain “crispness,” particularly on putts and wedge shots. Players accustomed to firmer balls may find the feedback of the club face muted somewhat, but for those wanting extra softness, it certainly delivers that.

I found the spin performance around the greens to be better than expected. On wedge shots it was surprisingly impressive. I was able to produce close to 7000 RPM of backspin. It also performed only slightly below a premium tour ball, making it a viable option for those who rely on spin around the greens.

With a seven-iron, the ball produced a ball speed of 115 mph and spin rates of around 5600 RPM, which I found to be relatively low. This means shots tended to roll out more upon landing, but also reducing stopping power on approach shots. It was a pretty mixed bag with a mid-iron in hand.

Off the driver, the ball speed averaged at 153 mph, with distances of 271 yards carry and a total yardage of 290. While respectable, higher swing-speed players might find they over-compress the ball, leading to a loss of efficiency.

Overall, the Titleist TruFeel is an excellent entry-level golf ball for players who prioritise soft feel, durability, and affordability. While I think it lacks the control and spin of premium options at higher speeds, it performs well in the short game and offers surprising value for money.

If you’re a slower swinger or a casual golfer looking for Titleist quality at a lower price, this ball is definitely worth considering.

About the author

Callaway Epic Max driver review
Jack Backhouse

A member of the PGA for 13 years, Jack has lived golf for more than half his life. Inspired by Tiger Wood’s winning putt at the 2008 US Open, an obsession began with watching slow motion golf swings on the internet and reading What’s In The Bag articles in magazines.

Not destined for a life behind the desk in a pro shop, Jack has focussed more on coaching, working closely with regional teams in North Yorkshire and helping golfers of all levels on their journey to enjoying playing the game more. Jack has coached many junior golfers into the county teams, and once worked with a player at the 2018 Open Championship at Carnoustie.

After letting his game fall apart prior to COVID, Jack rediscovered his love for playing golf after joining Silloth Golf Club in 2020 and whipping round the windy, firm links course. Playing regularly with a half set of clubs he has a passion for shot making and developing skill, and claims to have the sharpest 30-100 yard game in the North of England (only because he doesn’t know anyone in the South), and now maintains a +1 handicap at a club much closer to home, Sand Moor GC.

Jack has always tinkered with his equipment, once building his own Frankenstein one length set of clubs after watching Bryson DeChambeau burst onto the scene after winning the US Amateur. He firmly believes in getting custom fit and is happy to debate anyone about blade irons being superior to any other iron category.

Jack loves: playing quickly, 2 ball golf, match play, heathland courses, pencil bags, foursomes, Tiger Wood’s swing 2005-2009.

Jack hates: buggies, unnecessary trees, giving shots, the 7 iron loft debate, graphite shaft lovers weird superiority complex.

Titleist SM10 wedges
