While I welcome a new ‘Tour Level’ ball targeted at the more modest (normal) swing speed golfer. I have to challenge a couple of (marketing) points raised in the video. First Tour Response is not the only game in town (Srixon Q Star Tour for example) Second, Srixon try to mitigate the negative attributes of using just two piece construction by using a variable compression core (EGC) in the Srixon Soft feel. While I understand you guy’s don’t want to bite the hand that feeds. I do expect you to challenge the obvious just a little.
@@clubchampionmedia thanks! after a little more research, the Project (a) is a 70 compression ball and the Tour Response is a 40 compression ball. That has to be one of the lowest compression balls I have ever seen. Wouldnt that mean its for slower swing speeds? With Matt's higher swing speed, would be curious as to how it works out.
It's not the only one on the market. That's just not true. Wilson Duo Pro is a urethane ball for $34. Snell MTB-x is one of the best available and it's $29.
Dean Snell was the main guy I believe on the pro v and also the main guy on Taylormades 5 layer ball program. Snell makes some of the best balls in golf.
Agree with some of previous comments. In uk these balls appear to be discounted to about £35 per dozen compared to TP5 or Pro vi which are available for £37-£40 a dozen, therefore, performance will be more a factor than price and therefore the target sector referred to in the video are unlikely to be interested.
I think he's specifically talking about OEMs making urethane under $35 price point.. and he's wrong.. Wilson does with Duo urethane and so does Srixon with the Q-Star Tour. Many direct to consumer as well, but he's talking OEM.
Loving the move to 'visual tech' to make the balls easier to track. I lose sight of a plain white ball at about the 200y mark (and even less on a cloudy day) and have to rely on my playing partners to tell me where my ball ended up. It makes it harder to find a wayward ball if only one of you was able to keep track of it.
It would be interesting for you to test this ball against other mid-price balls from other mainstream manufacturers, eg Titleist TrueFeel & Srixon AD333/QStar
I have tested this ball at my pro shop the past couple days and the ball very much reminds me of the first iteration of Callaway Chromesoft. Soft feel, spins well, higher launch off irons, ball speed off driver about 2 mph lower than a Pro Vx for me.
If you ignore the low marketing balls auch as Snell and Vice and even the Kirkland at 2 dozen for $29 CAD, there is still the Wilson Duo urethane for $40 CAD or Optix Pro for $45 CAD and regularly on sale for $30-$35, Project A and Q-Star Tour all in That price range. I am guessing it is a rebranded and marketed Project A to combat lost sales to online companies and these other brands
Would MUCH rather hear TXG's unbiased review, through testing, of this and any other ball - as you have done to date. The hyperbolic sales pitch(es) is (are) off brand for your loyal audience.
If we had a chance to test the ball at the time the video was made we would have. Product releases and access aren’t as cut and dry as some think, in this case we could only get some introduction and information filmed for the channel. We’ll test it in the studio as soon as we receive them.
Fascinating! I love what TM has been doing with their ball for a while now. I was a life-long Titleist guy and switched to TP5x about a year ago and haven’t looked back. I’m looking forward to trying the new Pix ball and even having a look at the yellow ball. Thanks for a great video!
Good video, guys! It seems like this new ball is a re-iteration of the project (a). Testing will tell if it's any better or not. I've been buying up the Bridgestone B line for $30-$35 a dozen. I mostly play the B-RX, but all four balls are about the same price.The prices have been around there for a year as they prepare for the new Tour B line to launch. It's an insanely good deal for those balls. Long and consistent and durable. I don't need a ton of spin on the courses I play. The B-RX stops just fine. And I have a 90-95 mph driver swing, so all balls pretty much go the same distance for me. The B-RX does seem to get more iron carry, though. But I'm probably just remembering the really good shots.
Great vlog gentlemen! I'm really interested in seeing what both balls do in your testing... Patiently waiting..NOT!! Thx for sharing TXG, it's always an education for me!
And yet it performs in all categories as well as the ProV, TP5 etc. Marketing slogans and phrases lose meaning when real testing is done. A ball either performs for you or it doesn't.
Ask MyGolfSpy if soft is slow ;-0 Callaway ball is being redesigned do to its lower speed per MGS after they did their ball testing. I like the TP5 but will stay with the Snell MTB-X. No reflection on TXG thanks for bringing another review, always good to hear direct from the manufacturer.
So does this mean that we can all expect them to be cheaper than the Project A? If not then I don’t really see what’s different. Both urethane cover and the project a spins on ice so I’m just curious as to how they think this is something new that they’re doing?
This looks like a softer Project (a) which was a brilliant ball. I'd expect this ball to not go as far off the driver but go a mile off the irons. When I switched from Project (a) to Bridgestone Tour B X I gained 3mph on driver ball speed but lost about 5 yards carry per iron compared to the Project (a)
You guys are awesome... I love your channel (most informative/helpful/enlightening golf channel on the web). Obviously, you wanted to be gracious guests and not push back, but he is careful to state that no *OEM* ball has a urethane cover at that price point. But Snell's MTB-X (okay, so not OEM - a distinction that literally NObody should care about) has a urethane cover and has performance characteristics that are right there with the 'premium' balls. People still pay for the premium balls ONLY because TM and Titleist have the money to pay stars big $$$ to play their brands, so golfers want the same things the pros play. Pros have told Dean Snell they'd play his ball on tour if Snell would pay them, and he has said (so far) no thanks.
The TP5 is a awesome ball, I'm looking froward to trying these new balls at a lower price point and seeing how that work for my game. Taylormade golf balls are a excellent IMO.
Everyone loves to use a premium ball,But could you do a review of golf balls which would be the better option for the golfer with a slower swing speed and that might lose a couple of balls a round through miss hits/drives.
Looking forward to response ball testing against premium ball to see the difference if any. Being a lower price point it will be a contender for my bag 👍
Bottom line is there are more high performance products out there at more reasonable prices. This is a good thing. Not all reviews will knock your socks off but courtesy calls and paying attention to the entire marketplace are a strength of this channel. Mind you, I’m the arch enemy of cynicism:)
What does he consider an OEM? last I checked there are about 5 balls on the market at that price point with urethane covers. Dean Snell probably came unglued listening to this! lol
4:30 in and... Ok I got the point. You put a urethane cover on a lesser-cost ball. Made it to about 7:30. ZzzZzzzz I played the Project a and liked it until I literally cracked one almost in half with my driver.
Not on topic, but I am curious on how lie angle would be effected on a set of clubs if a golf were implementing a single plane swing like a Moe Norman style. Haven’t tried it much myself but have always been curious and wondered if my clubs would need to be altered to truly be effective implementing that swing style.
From listening to what this guy says, the difference in distance between low and high compression balls is huge, in practice for the majority of players it's minimal. Eg Titleist Velocity v ProV1x, completely opposite balls in concept, negligible difference in distance.
Tell me how it competes with Cut, Snell, Vice and you’ll have my attention. It’s not coming in the next year, but when these online ball companies start making it big, they may eat into some of the big boys market share. Prices hopefully will come down
In what way is this "Tour Response" ball not a just version 4 of the Project (a) ball? AFAICT it's a 3 layer ball with same price & cover . Now the first version of Project (a) sounded perfect for me but was too slow an spinney. Year on year Taylormade improved it, and now it may be competitive. But will I bother? Likely not. Quirk of local market I can often find Srixon Z-Star cheaper. I would prefer if Taylormade had nailed their version 1.
I'll wait for your testing. Matt if you could swing it at around a 100 that would be great. Thanks. OK who walked in around the 11 min mark that you both acknowledged.
Lefty Karma ..... it happens swifty and quickly Matty .... yep I saw it. So again it speaks highly to ball fitting .... I don't understand how the TXG fitters keep all what's going on with golf balls let alone everything else happening right now .... Camera 3 your task is capture a small sample of the discussions at TXG meetings ... I once again tip my bucket hat (available only in emoji currently) to the dedication you have to ensuring the client finds pure enjoyment on their Tours.
if it spins around the greens, cuts thru the wind from the front and doesnt go offline from side wind. let's me shape my shots when needed & feels soft like TP5 but gives me more off the tee then my TP5 Gamer & Tour BxS ball. The. I'll game it all day.... my SS is 110mph with driver... idk if this ball will do good for me since its built for slower SS... but will give it a try tho
Mike Fox said the identical things about the Project (a). Same cover, same 3 piece, same compression. Hello Project (a). That's a lot of infomercial for the same ball.
Great video guys nice to see big companies actually thinking about price point! Quick question, I play prov 1 if change to prov1x will I get half a club more distance with same feel around the greens? Thanks, keep up the awesome vids 👍
So the Project A is urethane and 70 compression. This "new ball" is urethane and 70 compression (over all even if the core is 40)... So what else is new?...
Hi, just a heads up in case hasn’t been brought to your attention yet. The description says “filmed dec 3rd 2020”, which is 11 months from now... by the way, I found your channel 2 months ago and I really like your channel format and content in general. I find myself highly interested in the details that the two of you so thoroughly cover. There are a lot of channels out there which measure and discuss numbers but I find your channel to be the best and most valuable when it comes to stats, concepts and theory.
I love TXG and really enjoy the interviews they have with product folks. But, we all know so much of what is said is marketing hyperbole or just plain B.S.. I agree with others here in that I would like to have seen the boys push back on the claims given there are numerous balls with the same cover material.
@@ronaldstark8342 its probably TM trying to claim they are the first to do something that they saw someone else do before. Look at their new truss putters claiming first of its kind and titliest and another company tried that design before
I dont understand why Taylormade and Callaway add alignment or putting feedback aids on golfballs and only sell them on $60 a dozen golf balls. They need to put them in the affordable models, or at least mid range. People will not pay an extra $2 a ball for alignment aids
It's great. But, that's quite the overstatement. Better than pro v1? Better than tp5? I think not. It's in the same league, imo. And that's saying a lot, at that price.
Not sure if they’re still being produced, but the Top Flite Gamer ball has (had) been out for years as a budget urethane ball and was around $25/dozen. I love TM products but this guy clearly doesn’t know what he’s talking about
Really, only urethane ball at this price point? Wilson professional, Srixon Q Star, Seed Golf, Vice Golf ..... the list goes on. Come on TaylorMade we're not idiots.
Someone should tell this Taylormade dude that his “affordable urethane ball” is still more expensive then snell. And $10 more per dozen if you buy a few boxes at a time. What a joke
Very interesting and informative, the golf ball is so important! Golfers spend hundreds of pounds on clubs, but don't give enough consideration to the ball they use! Make's no sense!
Great they are doing it but already had 2 urethane balls for that price in the project a and the v3 urethane. And same price in the uk as the bridgestone tour b models and chromesoft.Taylormade must think the consumers are pretty dumb making these false claims
So if you can “afford” or have time to play multiple times a week you don’t care about wasting money? Maybe they can afford to play multiple times a week bc theyre not pissing $1 away every time they lose a ball
This is rubbish, I’m now using the Kirkland signature ball from Costco which is now available in England, it has a Urethane cover and is 3 piece, can’t tell the difference between it and a pro v, price £27 for 2 dozen

Hasn't taylormade already put this on market in the project (a)? It was always sub $40 and urethane covered
They haven't put it on the market before - with multi-coloured images and the Taylormade Tour Response + PIX 2.0 name though. So, it is new ;-)
exactly what I was thinking...
would like to see these vs the Srixon Q Star Tour, which is also a budget friendly urethane ball.
The Q Star tour is a great ball. I’ve been playing then for three years. My shop sells them for $20 a dozen
While I welcome a new ‘Tour Level’ ball targeted at the more modest (normal) swing speed golfer. I have to challenge a couple of (marketing) points raised in the video.
First Tour Response is not the only game in town (Srixon Q Star Tour for example)

While I understand you guy’s don’t want to bite the hand that feeds. I do expect you to challenge the obvious just a little.
Can you guys comment on what the difference between the Tour Response and the Project (a) is? Seems like its just a rebranded Project (a), no?
Me too im afraid id over compress it.
Should be able to compare directly once we get them to the studio!
@@clubchampionmedia thanks! after a little more research, the Project (a) is a 70 compression ball and the Tour Response is a 40 compression ball. That has to be one of the lowest compression balls I have ever seen. Wouldnt that mean its for slower swing speeds? With Matt's higher swing speed, would be curious as to how it works out.
@@tom_luley The core is 40 compression but the overall ball compression is still 70, same as Project (a).
It's not the only one on the market. That's just not true. Wilson Duo Pro is a urethane ball for $34. Snell MTB-x is one of the best available and it's $29.
Dean Snell was the main guy I believe on the pro v and also the main guy on Taylormades 5 layer ball program. Snell makes some of the best balls in golf.
Also kirkland
You guys missed the part where he said “major OEM” Titleist, Callaway, TaylorMade

Started playing Project A's last year and loved them. Will be interesting to see if they just changed the name or tried to fix something that worked
Vice, Snell, Cut, etc...good to get some comparison TXG boys: Ian and Matt to look at different ball speeds as a thought
Snell has been making an affordable urethane ball for several years now.
And Vice!
and wilson
TXG boys, please test the Tour Response against the MTB-X!
I think he's specifically talking about OEMs making urethane under $35 price point.. and he's wrong.. Wilson does with Duo urethane and so does Srixon with the Q-Star Tour. Many direct to consumer as well, but he's talking OEM.
Talking about OEM balls here, but yes we know there’s direct to consumer balls on the market with similar benefits

Rufuss Thoo Ditto, it's very frustrating! I have mild cateracts.
Genuinely thought that was Neil from the inbetweeners for a split second!
Sounds great. Now lets cut a dozen open to confirm quality and consistency in manufacturing
Q-star tour is only $40 Canadian per box. And their Z-Star is a premium top of the line ball for $49.99. Taylormade is late to the party.
It would be interesting for you to test this ball against other mid-price balls from other mainstream manufacturers, eg Titleist TrueFeel & Srixon AD333/QStar
I have tested this ball at my pro shop the past couple days and the ball very much reminds me of the first iteration of Callaway Chromesoft. Soft feel, spins well, higher launch off irons, ball speed off driver about 2 mph lower than a Pro Vx for me.

If you ignore the low marketing balls auch as Snell and Vice and even the Kirkland at 2 dozen for $29 CAD, there is still the Wilson Duo urethane for $40 CAD or Optix Pro for $45 CAD and regularly on sale for $30-$35, Project A and Q-Star Tour all in That price range.
I am guessing it is a rebranded and marketed Project A to combat lost sales to online companies and these other brands
They arent the only golf ball company providing this cover at a cheaper price. The Srixon Q Star Tour has this same feature.
Would MUCH rather hear TXG's unbiased review, through testing, of this and any other ball - as you have done to date. The hyperbolic sales pitch(es) is (are) off brand for your loyal audience.
Agree, and this goes for all their release videos.
If we had a chance to test the ball at the time the video was made we would have. Product releases and access aren’t as cut and dry as some think, in this case we could only get some introduction and information filmed for the channel. We’ll test it in the studio as soon as we receive them.
Agreed, I could care less what Taylormade has to say about their products. I just want the TXG boys to test it out and hear their unbiased opinion.
@@clubchampionmedia Understood. I imagine that you have to play nice to gain access.
Fascinating!
I love what TM has been doing with their ball for a while now. I was a life-long Titleist guy and switched to TP5x about a year ago and haven’t looked back.
I’m looking forward to trying the new Pix ball and even having a look at the yellow ball.
Thanks for a great video!
Taylormade is a marketing company making golf equipment
The Tour B XS is the ball I use and it's a 3 layer urethane golf ball with 80 compression and this ball very close to those specs but cheaper.
The end of the video teasing the Yellow Ball the most exciting part for me.
Good video, guys! It seems like this new ball is a re-iteration of the project (a). Testing will tell if it's any better or not. I've been buying up the Bridgestone B line for $30-$35 a dozen.

How does it compare to urethane models from the likes of Vice and Snell?
MyGolfSpy tests all the balls. Snell in particular lines up nicely with all the premium balls for far less money.
Snell uses cast urethane just like TM
And yet it performs in all categories as well as the ProV, TP5 etc. Marketing slogans and phrases lose meaning when real testing is done. A ball either performs for you or it doesn't.
Is this replacing the Project (a)?
Ask MyGolfSpy if soft is slow ;-0 Callaway ball is being redesigned do to its lower speed per MGS after they did their ball testing. I like the TP5 but will stay with the Snell MTB-X. No reflection on TXG thanks for bringing another review, always good to hear direct from the manufacturer.

Pro V1/X practice balls 29.99. Same exact performance. Just slight cosmetic blemishes. I think Taylormade offers the same thing.

Guess this guy hasn't heard of the Maxfli Tour and Tour X? They sell for $25 a dozen with urethane covers and all 🤯, cheaper with coupons
He probably isn’t aware that the TXG viewers are generally well informed and are aware of the Q Star Tour and other DTC balls
Pretty sure Dunlop have got a urethane cover ball as well at low price point
You could still get the best golf ball ever made in my opinion(Bridgestone B XS) for 35 dollars before they release the new one
Bottom line is there are more high performance products out there at more reasonable prices. This is a good thing. Not all reviews will knock your socks off but courtesy calls and paying attention to the entire marketplace are a strength of this channel. Mind you, I’m the arch enemy of cynicism:)
I’d like to see a review of these vs the Costco Kirkland Siganture 3 piece balls
10:55 I wonder who Matt is batting his eyebrows at hahaha
What does he consider an OEM? last I checked there are about 5 balls on the market at that price point with urethane covers. Dean Snell probably came unglued listening to this! lol
4:30 in and... Ok I got the point. You put a urethane cover on a lesser-cost ball.
Made it to about 7:30. ZzzZzzzz

The new Bridgestones come out 14th feb, are you guys going to test out the new urethane reactive cover it sounds very interesting?
will test the new balls for sure
Hey guys,
Thanks for the video. Do you have any suggestions for ideal swing spears to pair with the compression of a golf ball?
80 yard shot face off vs the Tp5 line maybe? That would be cool to see!
Matty, heads up the intro title is for truss putters.
Tell me how it competes with Cut, Snell, Vice and you’ll have my attention. It’s not coming in the next year, but when these online ball companies start making it big, they may eat into some of the big boys market share. Prices hopefully will come down
Test these against other brands, include the Kirkland 3 piece, which I haven't found any problems with. Not a high speed swing speed
This channel (as always) takes analysis of golf products on another level. Very interesting stuff guys!
Love to see a Review of Skytrak vs Mevo+ vs GC Quad
They're sponsored by foresight... Foresight wouldn't like that.
Definitely doesn't beat out Snell
In what way is this "Tour Response" ball not a just version 4 of the Project (a) ball? AFAICT it's a 3 layer ball with same price & cover .

Quirk of local market I can often find Srixon Z-Star cheaper. I would prefer if Taylormade had nailed their version 1.
My thought exactly Jason, what differentiates this from Project (a)?
I think this is in response to the triple track from Callaway
Not sure it would be as effective the triple track works great for me
No question it is their response. With the recent addition of the Callaway Triple Track putter, they are still ahead.
Interesting, prov1 is 3 layer and it holds right with tp5/x. Hes claiming this new ball isn't as fast as those
I'll wait for your testing. Matt if you could swing it at around a 100 that would be great. Thanks. OK who walked in around the 11 min mark that you both acknowledged.

will feel firmer around the greens and probably spin a bit less, club distance will depend on your current spin rates
So the Project A is urethane and 70 compression. This "new ball" is urethane and 70 compression (over all even if the core is 40)... So what else is new?...
Ricky Fowler was playing this ball last week.

It also says Truss Putters at the start
What driver speed would you recommend a 70 compression golf ball for? Thanks!!
hey would this be a bad ball for me with a ball speed of 160 with range balls on top tracer?
Hell the TaylorMade project (a) is a urethane ball that is already cheaper than this new ball. I have no idea why this ball is being released.
I love TXG and really enjoy the interviews they have with product folks. But, we all know so much of what is said is marketing hyperbole or just plain B.S.. I agree with others here in that I would like to have seen the boys push back on the claims given there are numerous balls with the same cover material.
Take a look at the vice pro soft
Can someone tell me what the difference is between this ball and the project(a) ball??
What about Kirkland @ $12 a dozen
hey guys tp5 and tp5x $53.00 doz response $83.00 dozen in Australia.. not going to sell to many so much for a cheaper ball
😳 that is pretty strange!
Any impacts to the Project (a)?
So at the price point stated there is a golf ball with a similar cover that honestly is lower priced. Srixon Q star tour. How does it compare?
Was my thought as well. Pretty sure the TM guy is wrong about them being unique at this price point. Not too mention the D2C brands
@@bm2844 especially when you can get a box of 18 for $23
Has this guy never heard of Snell, Vice etc?
@@ronaldstark8342 its probably TM trying to claim they are the first to do something that they saw someone else do before. Look at their new truss putters claiming first of its kind and titliest and another company tried that design before
Still like the Kirkland 3 piece cant beat that price
I dont understand why Taylormade and Callaway add alignment or putting feedback aids on golfballs and only sell them on $60 a dozen golf balls. They need to put them in the affordable models, or at least mid range. People will not pay an extra $2 a ball for alignment aids
SNELL > everything else on the market
It's great. But, that's quite the overstatement. Better than pro v1? Better than tp5? I think not. It's in the same league, imo. And that's saying a lot, at that price.
Titleist is for losers and posers ...sorry
So the Tour Response ball is a Project A with a new name
TM have really pushed their R&D to the limit when they put the logo and the name in line.
Not sure if they’re still being produced, but the Top Flite Gamer ball has (had) been out for years as a budget urethane ball and was around $25/dozen. I love TM products but this guy clearly doesn’t know what he’s talking about
Great conversation!
Great video
Lol wasn’t project (a) urethane? As well as Wilson duo urethane and q star tour
I don't buy the representative's statement about urethane golf balls at this price point. Srixon Q Star Tour is urethane. 30 US for a dozen.
"When you putt the product" PR guys-😂
Really, only urethane ball at this price point? Wilson professional, Srixon Q Star, Seed Golf, Vice Golf ..... the list goes on. Come on TaylorMade we're not idiots.
This is just a replacement for the Project a ball which was introduced in 2014. What is Taylormade trying to pull here with their claims?
Test them against project a!
Someone should tell this Taylormade dude that his “affordable urethane ball” is still more expensive then snell. And $10 more per dozen if you buy a few boxes at a time. What a joke
Just play Tp5’s :) worth the money :)
Very interesting and informative, the golf ball is so important! Golfers spend hundreds of pounds on clubs, but don't give enough consideration to the ball they use! Make's no sense!
Oncore Elixr balls for 17.50 a dozen. So your double the price. Note this is off of their buy one get one sales.
I’ve got 5 letters for you - S N E L L
Yup they make a good ball.
Great they are doing it but already had 2 urethane balls for that price in the project a and the v3 urethane. And same price in the uk as the bridgestone tour b models and chromesoft.Taylormade must think the consumers are pretty dumb making these false claims
Srixon Q-Star Tour
Sorry fellas. A $3 is not considered "affordable" when the best ball in the world is only $4.
Johnny Penso probably aimed at ppl who lose 6+ balls a round so it’s significant if you play multiple times a week/month.
If you can afford/have the time to play multiple times a week, a dollar a ball isn't going to mean anything to you.
So if you can “afford” or have time to play multiple times a week you don’t care about wasting money? Maybe they can afford to play multiple times a week bc theyre not pissing $1 away every time they lose a ball
@@justgettinby8260 Math is not your strong suit.
Johnny Penso ooh a zinger there! Seems I do math about as well as you hit a 7 iron/driver...
1000s of rpm??? so why do we need tp5 and x?? contrast between this and Mizuno Chris Voshall spiel anyone? know where my money's going🙄
cut blue = $20/dozen for urethane balls
This is rubbish, I’m now using the Kirkland signature ball from Costco which is now available in England, it has a Urethane cover and is 3 piece, can’t tell the difference between it and a pro v, price £27 for 2 dozen
