Srixon’s new Q-Star Tour golf balls are not only faster and softer than the previous generation, but they’re also smarter.
The latest iteration features a new thin, premium urethane cover made with Biomass, which the company says helps reduce carbon emissions during the production process without sacrificing performance. The same cover material is used on the Z-Star lineup.
“The Q-Star Tour series is all about delivering tour-level spin and control, especially around the greens, but in a lower compression design that better fits a wide range of swing speeds,” Srixon Vice President of Business Planning Brian Schielke said in a release. “It gives golfers the performance they want from tee to green without needing tour-level swing speed to unlock it. And with the latest innovations plus the bold new Divide color options, it’s a ball that not only performs at a high level but stands out while doing it.”
Biomass is a plant-based material that can be used to replace the petroleum-based materials in urethane to create a cover that is indistinguishable from one made with fossil fuels.
The new Q-Star Tour also has a new FastLayer core that progressively gets firmer from the center outward. This helps to produce longer and straighter shots with low-lofted clubs while retaining a soft and responsive feel with the irons and wedges.
The result is what Srixon calls its softest Tour-level golf ball.
Q-Star Tour also features a Spin Skin+ coating that helps dig deep into a club’s grooves for maximum friction.
Lastly, the ball has a 338 Speed Dimple Pattern, which is optimized to reduce drag and create a penetrating ball flight for maximum distance.
