TaylorMade Introduces New Tour Response Golf Balls

TaylorMade has introduced its new Tour Response golf balls in time for the 2025 season, which feature exciting innovations and brighter hi-vis designs.

Tour Response golf balls will be available for £37.99 / €50 per dozen and Tour Response Stripe for £39.99 / €52 per dozen starting Feb. 7 at TaylorMadeGolf.com and in retail locations on Feb. 13.

Tour Response golf balls will continue to be available in white and yellow, and Tour Response Stripe golf balls will now come in neon orange, neon pink, neon yellow, neon blue and navy colourways. Multipacks of Tour Response Stripe balls will also be available.

New Hi-Vis 360° Clearpath Alignment

In addition to white and yellow colourways in Tour Response, Tour Response Stripe golf balls are now available in even brighter, easier to align colours in the 22mm 360° ClearPath Alignment stripe. The digital band wraps around the centre of the ball to help golfers aim putts better, faster and more consistently, all while providing instant feedback on the quality of the roll.

Working with leaders in ink and print technologies, TaylorMade was able to incorporate the first-of-its-kind in golf neon digital ink into Tour Response Stripe golf balls using proprietary equipment. The ink includes fluorescent additives that are premixed and make the 360° ClearPath Alignment stripe even more vibrant.

Tour Response golf balls now feature Speed Wrapped Core Technology which the R&D and engineering teams have spent years perfecting in TP5 and TP5x. The material reduces the density of the core which dampens the sound and fosters an overall faster construction for enhanced ball speed and distance. With a compression of 70, Tour Response balls give golfers exceptionally soft feel using tour-tested materials.

Mike Fox, Senior Director Golf Ball Product Creation, said: "The Speed Wrapped Core, which has had incredible success in our TP5 and TP5x product, is even better in Tour Response because it enables more ball speed and more feel within a single product."

Speedmantle

Surrounding the Speed Wrapped Core is a new SpeedMantle with High-Flex Material (HFM) that allows the ball to interact more with the face, further enhancing both ball speed and soft feel.

In totality, the three-piece construction of Tour Response decouples distance and feel. It’s designed to help golfers hit the ball farther while also providing spin, feel and control on short shots where it’s needed most.

Tour-Level Spin & Control

Tour Response balls are constructed with a 100% cast urethane cover for added spin and greenside control compared to ionomer. The soft material allows wedge grooves to grip the ball while also maintaining durability.

Mike Fox added: "The number one reason people love the Tour Response golf ball is for the feel and performance benefits the cast urethane cover provides."

Enhanced Aerodynamics

Also in line with TP5 and TP5x, Tour Response balls feature TaylorMade’s Tour Flight Dimple Pattern. Employed in TP5 and TP5x since 2021, this dimple pattern is designed to deliver distance, ball speed and aerodynamic efficiency. In the all-new Tour Response, it promotes shots that come off the face fast, carry, and remain stable in the wind.

A New Era of Performance

Tour Response golf balls have been the leader in their category for years as golfers of all abilities have benefited from their prominent alignment features, soft feel, and overall consistent performance from tee-to-green. With added performance technologies and design features, and an even brighter, more enhanced 360° ClearPath Alignment stripe, the all-new Tour Response balls unlock another level of performance throughout the bag.

The final word goes to Mike Fox, who says: "The Tour Response golf ball is truly in a performance class of its own. And when we talk about making golf balls that are measurably and noticeably better, there’s nothing that offers that more than our Tour Response golf ball."
