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!!

Maxfli Tour vs Tour X: Tested & Reviewed

• DESCRIPTION Maxfli Tour vs Tour X golf balls
• SOURCE Nick Heidelberger

It’s official, low and mid-handicap golfers no longer need to pay premium prices to play a premium performance golf ball, thanks to the Maxfli Tour and Tour X. 

Sure, the Pro V1 & Pro V1x have earned their place as the unofficial gold standard of premium golf balls, but the budget-friendly alternatives from Maxfli, the Tour and Tour X, are proof you can harness top-end performance without the nauseating price.

We took both of these Maxfli models out for a spin to compare how they performed against each other, and the competition. Here’s our complete review of the Maxfli Tour and Tour X golf balls.

Spoiler Alert: Maxfli Tour & Tour X Final Verdict

Maxfli’s premium offerings are really impressive. The biggest takeaway from our testing was the control around the greens, but we were also impressed with the distance off the tee, and everything in between. We also found these balls to be highly durable.

Mid and low-handicap golfers with swing speeds of 95+ mph who want distance off the tee, like to shape shots, and need a ball that’s crafty around the greens, but are tired of spending $50 or more on a dozen balls, should give these a try.

Maxfli Tour and Tour X Overview

$40 | SHOP NOW

Before we detail how the Tour and Tour X performed in our testing, let’s take a look at how the two balls compare to each other, the pros and cons, and which option is likely the better fit for you.

• DESCRIPTION Maxfli Tour & Tour X Golf Balls
• PERMISSION Maxfli Tour & Tour X Golf Balls

Maxfli Tour and Tour X Specs

While both balls are urethane-covered, higher compression balls, there are some subtle differences between the Maxfli Tour and Tour X. Most notably, the Tour X is a four-piece ball, while the Tour is 3-pieces. The X also has a slightly higher compression, which helps it reach higher top-end distance.

Tour & Tour X Pros & Cons

Given the price and performance, there’s a lot to love about the Tour and Tour X balls from Maxfli, but like any ball, they’re not for every golfer. 

The better control you have over your shot shape and trajectory, the better this ball fits your game. Golfers who sometimes struggle with a hook or slice may find these balls to be unforgiving and would benefit more from a ball that prioritizes straight flight over spin. 

RELATED: The Straightest Golf Balls to Cure Your Slice or Hook

Similarly, the higher compression ratings of these balls mean they’re best for players with faster swing speeds. Players with slower swing speeds (even low-handicappers) may see better performance from a softer, lower-compression ball. Low handicappers who don’t swing fast enough to reap the performance of these balls should consider the Maxfli Tour S, the lower-compression sibling to the Tour and Tour X.

• Excellent greenside spin and control
• Premium-level distance
• Urethane cover
• One of, if not the best value premium ball of 2023
• On the firm end; Players who need a softer ball should consider Maxfli Tour S
• While workable, not forgiving to golfers who hook or slice

Which Golfers Should Play the Maxfli Tour?

• DESCRIPTION Maxfli Tour golf ball

The Maxfli Tour best fits mid-to-low handicap golfers who swing driver 95 mph or faster, and prioritize greenside feel and control. They either like a penetrating ball flight, or want a ball that will help lower their existing ball flight. Distance is important, but it doesn’t trump short-game control.

Which Golfers Should Play the Maxfli Tour X?

The Maxfli Tour X golf b all in gloss white

• DESCRIPTION Maxfli Tour X golf ball

Like the Tour, the Maxfli Tour X is a great ball for mid-to-low handicap players with moderate to fast swing speeds, 95 mph or above with a driver.

However, players who prioritize maximum distance over greenside feel, and either prefer a higher ball flight, or need a ball that will help them launch it a little higher, fit better into the Tour X than the Tour.

Maxfli Tour vs. Tour X

We compared the Maxfli Tour and Tour X with some serious testing at the practice green and on the course. Here’s how they stacked up.

Off the Tee

Off the tee, the Tour X churned out higher top-end distance, but both balls rewarded well-struck drives with satisfying distance.

Both balls performed exactly how you’d expect a premium ball to perform in the approach game. Both held greens with ease off irons and wedges. Distances in the approach game were consistent with other balls in the class, and as premium balls, both the Tour and Tour X are easy to shape and flight however you desire.

The Tour X launched just a touch higher than the Tour, which made those flushed mid-iron shots even more satisfying, which is why we gave the edge in this category to the Tour X. 

However, players who prefer a penetrating flight, or already hit the ball high, perhaps too high, should favor the Tour in this category.

We were particularly impressed with the Tour and Tour X around the greens. Both balls were easy to control from greenside chips, making the two-hop-and-stop chip shot look easy. 

Comparing the two, the Tour had the edge over the Tour X in greenside control. It launched just a touch lower on chip shots and stopped a little quicker, making it easier to control. The Tour X still performed exceptionally, but the point goes to the Tour.

Even though the Tour X technically won more categories than the Tour, the thrill of hitting creative chips and pitches around the green with the Tour outweighed a couple yards off the tee or a slightly higher launch window from the Tour X, so we gave the overall nod to the Tour.

Even at the one-box price of $40 per dozen, the Tour and Tour X are more than a 20% savings over the Pro V line. When you buy in bulk, you save even more. Two dozen balls cost $35 per dozen, and if you buy four boxes at a time, they’re just $30 per dozen, which is getting close to half the price of the $53 per dozen Pro V1 and Pro V1x.

Find Which Model is Best for You

Every golfer is different, and every player has different demands from their ball than others. Golfers may even experience different results than we did with their own swings and impact conditions. 

With that said, and given the affordability of these balls, we strongly recommend any low-to-mid handicap golfer on the market for a budget-friendly, premium ball to do their own testing and comparison between the two to find which one best suits their game.

If you play a premium golf ball there’s a good chance the Maxfli Tour X hasn’t been on your radar. It probably should be, however, as the Tour X offers exceptional performance at a price point that belies all it has to offer golfers.

A low compression ball with a matte finish aimed at golfers with slow to moderate swing speeds. Don’t expect market leading driver distance, but it impressed with irons and offers a soft, responsive feel around the greens and comes in four color options.

While the StaightFli shares a similar name to the SoftFli, they are two very different golf balls. Most notably, the StraightFli is a firmer feeling ball, which should appeal to players who enjoy auditory feedback on full shots. Additionally, the StraightFli features an octahedron dimple pattern.

The Maxfli TriFli is one of the more unique golf balls on the market. It’s a three-piece construction but unlike most three- or four-piece golf balls it does not have a urethane cover. Instead, the TriFli utilizes a soft ionomer cover.

Maxfli Tour Golf Ball

Our expert review:

Specifications

Reasons to buy, reasons to avoid.

The Maxfli Tour joins the Tour X as one of the two premium golf balls in Maxfli’s current lineup. The Tour model features a three-piece construction and urethane cover, which combine to promote low spin and distance in the long game along with high spin and soft feel on and around the greens. This ball also features a larger, redesigned core that is built to create more ball speed off the tee, like some of the options featured on our best balls for distance guide. It has also has been CG balanced to increase consistency on all shots, and from a color standpoint, is available in Gloss White, Matte White, and Gloss Yellow. 

Compared to the Tour X, we loved the level of spin on offer here. And during testing, we felt we could get a lot of traction on this ball in any condition and from any kind of lie. The control was exceptional and when playing chip shots, we loved how easy it was to flight and stop on the greens. The Maxfli Tour wasn't the greatest in terms of the distance on offer but it was extremely accurate and we found it very easy to work this ball, moving it left and right easily. It also comes with a very soft feel which is interesting because of how durable the ball is. From our testing sessions, we feel this is a great golf ball for low-spin players who need all the help they can get when it comes to greenside control.

Maxfli Tour X Golf Ball

The Tour X is one of two premium golf ball offerings from Maxfli but it differs quite a bit from the other option, the Tour model. Most notably the Tour X is a four-piece construction and it features a slightly larger core, design elements that have been utilized to deliver low spin off the tee, making it a great choice for players with faster swing speeds. 

The Tour X does, however, utilize a urethane cover to provide ample control from 100 yards but it does feel firmer than the Tour. The X model also features center of gravity balancing to ensure optimal performance and it is available in Gloss White and Matte White colors. It offers exceptional performance at a price point that makes it a fantastic option for any golfer aspiring to play a tour quality golf ball. Having tested these balls on the course, we found the Tour X excelled the most in its long game distance. 

We enjoyed the sensation it offered off the tee and also liked the higher flights it offered when we chose to play with our driver. The Tour X was also stable in the wind and shots into strong headwinds still yielded significant rollouts. On full approach shots, it was explosive off the face and we had no issues with the stopping power on offer here. The Tour X also felt very nice off the putter, and we particularly enjoyed the double-lined alignment aid on the golf ball. It's cover was also very durable and in our opinion, that makes it an excellent golf ball for any player looking to get the best value out of their ball.

Maxfli SoftFli Golf Ball

As its name would suggest, the Maxfli SoftFli provides golfers with an incredibly soft feel on every shot they play. In fact, the SoftFli’s compression of 35 makes it one of the softest golf balls available . That said, its core has been redesigned to promote low spin off the tee, while Maxfli’s icosahedron dimple pattern promotes higher launch conditions, a combination that helps players maximize carry and total distance in the long game. The SoftFli lineup also features one of the most expansive color collections available in the golf ball market, including a matte pink ball that is especially popular with female players.

During our testing sessions, the SoftFli felt solid when we took our driver to it. It may not be suited to players with faster swing speeds but the flight was high and straight and we found it offered up a very responsive feel. Compared to some premium models , we thought it didn't check up quite as quickly when chipping in from tighter lies around the greens. We did, however, love how well the ball rolled off the putter face, even if it tended to ping off at extra speed when struck with the putter. Again we loved how soft this golf ball was, and the side stamp design on the ball that features two thick lines either side of the SoftFli logo was a very handy addition, that improved our accuracy off the tee and on the greens.

Maxfli StraightFli Golf Ball

While the StaightFli shares a similar name to the SoftFli, they are two very different golf balls. Most notably, the StraightFli is a firmer feeling ball, which should appeal to players who enjoy auditory feedback on full shots. Additionally, the StraightFli features an octahedron dimple pattern that consists of dimples that vary in size, a design that MaxFli believes optimizes launch and promotes increased accuracy on full shots. The StraightFli, while it feels firmer than the SoftFli, does offer similar greenside control, and it is available in Gloss White, Matte Green, and Matte Orange. That makes this a great option for high handicap golfers looking for a durable option that will deliver excellent ball flights and forgiveness off the face of the club. 

Maxfli TriFli Golf Ball

The Maxfli TriFli is one of the more unique golf balls on the market. It’s a three-piece construction but unlike most three- or four-piece golf balls it does not have a urethane cover. Instead, the TriFli utilizes a soft ionomer cover, which allows this golf ball to come in at an impressive price for the tee-to-green performance it provides. While it is one of the best value golf balls on the market, it has a compression rating of just 45, which promotes soft feel with every club, making it great for players with slower swing speeds. But the TriFli’s mantle layer helps provide faster ball speeds off the tee that defy the soft feel. The three layers also help create spin in the short game but the TriFli won’t spin as much as the Tour models. 

How we test golf balls

Here at Golf Monthly, our highly experienced team of testers play a lot of golf in different conditions throughout the year. Through our rigorous testing procedures , our collective goal is to test every golf ball model on the market as soon as it becomes available to us, putting in the hours in all weathers out on the golf course, the practice ground, the short-game area, the practice bunker and the putting green. 

We want to get an idea of how each ball performs in all areas of the game so we can tell you what its strengths and weaknesses are, allowing you to make an informed choice about your next golf ball purchase. Whenever possible, we will also seek to acquire launch monitor data for a more detailed analysis of each ball model's performance. Specifically, when it comes to MaxFli golf balls, we put each ball through its paces on the range and out on the course. We try and assess the difference between these golf balls compared to other brands on the market, with a view to ensuring that these balls provide great value and have as many performance-enhancing features as possible.  

What to consider when buying golf balls

Perhaps the most technical piece of equipment in golf is the golf ball. Brands are innovating all the time to see how they can make their golf balls carry further, spin more and help the modern-day golfer shoot lower cards. For that reason, there is an awful lot of technology crammed into your average golf ball, which can picking your next ball sometimes a very overwhelming decision. To help you purchase the best golf ball for your game, we've set out a few points below that you should bear in mind when you head down to your local golf shop.

Soft or firm?

The best premium golf balls come in alternative versions that spin slightly less for players who prefer a firmer feel or more control off the tee. We recommend you try both kinds of feel from various distances to find your preferred feel. 

Cover material

Urethane-covered balls offer the best spin control and feel but do cost more. Experiment with each to see if you notice enough of a difference to justify the extra cost, or whether the best mid-price golf balls might be an option.

Long game or short game? 

Which aspect of the game is most important to you? Are you looking for maximum distance or something that allows your short game to shine around the greens? If you put a real premium on feel, perhaps our best soft feel golf balls guide might be a good next step.

Color/visuals

Are you very much a classic white ball player, or someone open to playing something a little different as the golf ball world evolves? There's more choice than ever in this regard and if you're planning on outdriving the course, there's a strong chance that you will want your golf ball to have a bit of color on it, to help you see where it falls on the course.

No buying guide would be complete without at least mentioning price. Thankfully most brands make models at different price points and you can rest assured there is decent performance on offer across the price spectrum.

For more advice on buying golf balls, we have a ton of information on our website that will help you make the right choice for you. Why not also take a look at our guides on the best Callaway golf balls , best TaylorMade golf balls and the best Titleist golf balls .

Who makes Maxfli golf balls?

Maxfli has a storied history in the game of golf, especially when it comes to golf balls. During the 1980s and 1990s, Maxfli HT and Revolution golf balls were among the most popular in the game and the company arguably rivaled Titleist as the world’s most popular golf ball manufacturer. The company’s commercial success started to slide in the early 2000s after being purchased by TaylorMade, but the brand has enjoyed a resurgence since being acquired in 2008 by Dick’s Sporting Goods, which continues to oversee Maxfli golf ball production to this day.

Is Maxfli a good golf ball brand?

Maxfli golf balls have enjoyed increasing popularity in recent years thanks in large part to the fact that there are different models available to meet the needs of any caliber of golfer and those models always are competitive in terms of performance. Additionally, whether it’s a premium golf ball like the Tour or Tour X or a budget golf ball like the StraightFli or SoftFli, Maxfli also is highly competitive across every category when it comes to price point.

How does compression affect a golf ball?

Compression is a measure of how much deflection the ball undergoes when you play a golf shot. Typically it is measured in values that range from 50 to 100, with higher values meaning that a golf ball has less deflection. Some golfers will find it easier to get greater distance out greater distance from a golf ball they can compress more easily, than one that needs a higher swing speed to get the most yardage from. For that reason, it is generally better for golfers with slower swing speeds to play with soft compression golf balls rather than hard compression golf balls.

What we say...

The maxfli tour s golf balls offer premium performance and an incredibly soft feel..

There are three balls in Maxfli’s range of Tour golf balls: the Tour S, Tour and Tour X. Maxfli may not be a name you find on the tip of your tongue when discussing the best golf balls . However, this range of balls is a serious competitor.

With their Tour range of golf balls, Maxfli have improved the competition of the best premium golf balls. Every brand is striving to produce models of their premium golf balls better than the last in order to maintain popularity. Maxfli are offering a ball that competes with the best premium golf balls but at a lower price – what not to like?

Thanks to the technology within the Tour S this ball is more than capable of competing with the best golf balls on the market. While the technology may not be as innovative as some of those other brands the technology in the Tour S makes the ball perform exceptionally well. So, what technology have Maxfli put into the Tour S?

Center of Gravity Balanced

This is Maxfli’s patented balancing process, when combined with the new alignment aid improves consistency and accuracy.

Soft Cast Urethane

The soft cast urethane cover is what gives the Maxfli Tour its soft feel and additional greenside spin.

Tetrahedron Dimple Pattern

In order to optimize aerodynamics, the Tour golf balls sport a tetrahedron dimple pattern which improves ball flight by reducing drag allowing the ball to travel further.

This is Maxfli’s new core which has been designed to increase ball speeds giving explosive distance off the tee.

High-Speed Mantle

The new high-speed mantle delivers faster ball speed and helps to reduce spin on long distance shots.

Which Maxfli Tour golf ball should I play?

Maxfli offers three different options in their range of Tour golf balls. All of which have slightly different properties intended to behave dissimilar to the others. Depending on what you want from your ball, where you play, and desired flight all impact which ball you should be playing with.

If you are looking for a ball which flies low and offers less spin than the other Tour range golf balls the Maxfli Tour S is the ball you most likely need. The Tour S is a 3-piece urethane cover construction golf ball which provides the softest feel of all the Maxfli Tour range golf balls. Also, this ball is ideal for links golf and windy conditions.

The Maxfli Tour is also a 3-piece urethane cover construction which is not as soft as the Tour S but softer than the Tour X. This ball sits in between the two other Tour golf ball options with regard to ball flight and iron spin – offering mid flight and mid spin.  

Last of the three Tour options is the Tour X which is a 4-piece urethane cover construction golf ball. It is still soft feeling, but it is the hardest of the three Tour range golf balls. The Tour X is designed to fly higher and generate more spin from iron shots.

Maxfli Tour S availability

The Tour S golf balls are available in white and yellow. The balls are traditionally numbered from 1 to 4.

The balls are available to purchase from numerous retailers in the US at an RRP of $39.99; a great competitor to the best golf balls and certainly worth playing. Maxfli golf balls aren’t as readily available in the UK but they can still be purchased.
