The Srixon Soft Feel is the softest Srixon ball we've made. With the 333 dimple pattern and Rabalon® Cover, the Srixon Soft Feel incorporates tour proven performance in a low compression ball for the everyday golfer. First, the new Soft Feel features the softest Energetic Gradient Growth core ever designed. It promotes ideal high launch angle and low spin launch conditions for all golfers, while the low compression gives great feel and velocity to those with low swing speeds. The highly resilient Rabalon® cover, which is 25% more resilient than iomer, provides greater energy transfer for more velocity. The seamless 333 dimple pattern lets the Soft Feel stay in the air longer for greater carry, more roll, and more distance.
Gotta update your pic....that old softfeel was crap....this new one is amazing (especially this time of year)...it is a very underrated ball. Anyone who has tried the old softfeel has got to try this new. I try not to give opinions on this kind of stuff, but I love this ball for a winter ball. Its awesome.
Totally agree with you Dan! I found an older version of this ball out on the course a month ago, and got more distance, height and control off the tee. Bought a dozen of the latest model and promptly shot my low round of the year (8-over par) at what I consider to be the toughest course I play. My driving was almost faultless (missed 2 fairways all day) and I gained 10+ yards over my usual NXT Tours. This ball is also plenty soft enough for my short game and putting, and checks up nicely off the wedges. All in all, an excellent choice for the mid-h'capper (like me).
PS.
Forgot to mention that it's $7 cheaper per dozen than the NXT's too!
I was not fond of the old Soft Feel ball, but when I got some of the new Soft Feel's I fell in love with them.
I have been playing these balls for the whole first half of the golf year and they preform just as good if not better than most balls out there and I have played almost every ball out there.
I also have played the old model and it was ok but I tried the new model yesterday and really like it.
I've been playing the AD333 and is a good ball but I'm pretty sure the Soft Feel is longer and less spin off the driver. The SF "may" not stop on the green as well as the AD333 but it's not much different and I can adjust for that.
The MAIN thing I liked is I was able to out drive a playing partner but 5 to 10 yards several times yesterday and he allways outdrives me by 5 or 10 yards no matter how good of a drive I hit.
Tried them on the weekend, and wow was I surprised. I usually play NXTs or Precept U-Tris but these are really sweet. I would have never guessed that a two piece ball could feel this good. They feel so soft off the driver, iron and especially around and on the green and yet they are very durable. I hit them twice and had an instant liking for them, strange thing is that I felt more confident standing over that ball. I started the round with U-Tris, relatively cold and wet weather, once I switched to Srixons I felt more confident and they seem to be about half to one club longer. Obviously they do not spin that much, but I hit the ball high enough that they usually stop. Very good ball for the price, will compete as my regular ball for sure.
I got to try them today. I was very impressed as well. These were a very good ball for the money. I found myself reaching for these more often than not. If you want spin, these ain't the ones you're looking for. BUT, if you want distance, these are for you. These will be hanging around my bag indefinately.
I haven't played it, but I love the ZUR-C and S. I tried the AD333 to save some money and hate them. My drives were dropping out of the sky for lack of spin and my irons weren't biting enough. I'll be giving them to my 9 year old.
For the past few years I have always purchased Precept/Bridgestone balls. I'd sometimes play things found in the weeds and woods, but have loved the E5 and B330 and S. Last Sunday I ambled into the local golf shop was going to buy a dozen Bridgestone Treosoft for these cold Minnesota days. The clerk suggested I try the Srixon Soft Feel. I owe him a beer when he becomes of age. I played it today and loved it. At the end of 18 holes it still looks new except for my mark wearing off. The ball putts well, spins very well off the irons, though it says on the box it isn't supposed to, and off the driver it is just dandy.
When it comes to reading greens, though, I'm dyslexic and it didn't go in the hole on its own.
Does anyone know if there's a huge difference between the Soft Feel & Soft Feel Ladies?
I can't see much difference on the Srixon Website. The Soft Feel has a higher trajectory & slightly higher spin, but the ladies is a touch softer.
