Available at an affordable price, the Tour Response has been a great option for club golfers who require some performance from their golf ball for a number of years.

TaylorMade believe they have unlocked another level of performance from the technological advances they have included in the new Tour Response golf balls. So, let’s take a look at what they are…

TaylorMade Tour Response Golf Balls: The Technology

Golf manufacturers have Research and Development teams who spend years perfecting a certain product feature. This is evident in the Speed Wrapped Core Technology which is now prominent in the Tour Response balls after TaylorMade spent years perfecting it in the TP5 and TP5x.

The Speed Wrapped Core Technology helps to dampen the sound and enables a faster construction for quicker ball speeds and more distance. Using these Tour tested materials and with a compression of 70, Tour Response balls give golfers exceptionally soft feel.

Also taken from the TP series is TaylorMade’s Tour Flight Dimple Pattern. The pattern is designed to deliver shots that come off the face fast, carry, and remain stable in the wind.

A new SpeedMantle™with High-Flex Material surrounds the core technology. As a result golfers will be able to command more interaction between the golf ball and the club face to further enhance the ball speed and soft feel.

All in all, the three-piece construction is designed to supply strong distances with longer clubs but also provide plenty of spin, feel and control for short approach shots.

Many golfers are on the hunt for more green side spin and control to bring that handicap down. Fortunately for us, TaylorMade believe they have equipped these golf balls with Tour-level spin from a 100% cast urethane cover. This soft material allows the grooves of wedges o grip the ball whilst maintaining durability.

Visually the new TaylorMade Tour Response Stripe golf balls are now available in brighter and more alignment friendly colours. They are now equipped with a new Hi-Vis 360° ClearPath alignment which is a 22mm stripe that wraps around the centre of the golf ball to help golfers aim putts better, faster and more consistently.

This adjustment also provides golfers with a more instant feedback on the quality of the roll of the putts. Additionally, TaylorMade has incorporated the first-of-its-kind, in golf, neon digital ink into the Tour Response Stripe golf balls. The ink works to make the alignment aide more vibrant.

About the author

Max Mcvittie

A bit of a late bloomer to the game of golf, Max fell in love with the sport when he attended Saturday coaching sessions down at his local golf club after being inspired by friends and family members.

Max has remained a member of Eden Golf Club in Carlisle for a number of years now as he looks to get his handicap down into single figures. Most of his golfing career has been spent battling a permanent slice off the tee, which has led to some ugly rounds.

Having studied at the University of Sunderland, Max is starting out his dream career in sports journalism. During his time at university, he picked up valuable work experience at Reach PLC, BBC Radio Cumbria and GiveMeSport, whilst also getting work published in the Teesside Live. He also spent time working at a local weekly newspaper, Eskdale and Liddesdale Advertiser, as a general news reporter partially covering some local sport just north of the border in Langholm.

Max has just started his journey with the NCG working as the assistant equipment editor. He looks forwarded to reviewing the latest golf equipment, taking up an interest in reviews when buying his first golf club, a Cleveland RTX wedge.

With his bag not going under too many changes throughout the last few years, Max carries an M3 driver, Titleist GT3 Fairway Wood, M2 hybrid, a set of M2 irons, Callaway Jaws wedges and a TaylorMade Spider putter. And yes, Max is a bit of a self-proclaimed TaylorMade fan boy.
