Srixon’s new Soft Feel golf balls feature upgraded dimple pattern, core
Srixon announced today the launch of a new Soft Feel golf ball. The 11th generation of the Soft Feel ball, Srixon has designed the two-piece Ionomer-cover ball with a new core and dimple pattern.
“The all-new Soft Feel was designed to help players maximize their distance off the tee, while providing even better feel and control,” said Jeff Brunski, Vice President of Research and Development.
“The latest generation of Soft Feel accomplishes this goal offering a lower compression ball for incredible distance, but a softer cover to provide that greenside performance all players crave. The Soft Feel provides all-around performance at an incredible value which really separates this golf ball from the rest.”
The core is designed to be softer in the center and firmer toward the exterior of the 60-compresion ball. Srixon refers to this technology as its Energetic Gradient Growth (E.E.G.) core, saying it mimics the qualities of (more expensive) multi-core balls.
Key technologies, per Srixon.
- Energetic Gradient Growth Core. Soft Feel’s core technology provides a high launch/low spin trajectory off the tee for added distance with an ultra-soft feel.
- Soft, Thin Cover. The softer, thinner cover promotes more greenside spin and a softer feel on all pitches, chips and putts.
- 338 Speed Dimple Pattern. The upgraded dimple pattern reduces drag and cuts through the wind for more accuracy and consistency on every shot.
The Srixon Soft Feel is available now in Soft White and Tour Yellow for $19.99 per dozen.

Eleventh generation of this ball? Geez wonder when they will get it right? These soft feel balls do feel great off the irons though. Seems like they stay on the club face a split second longer that others.

Soft Feel balls give you that spongy orgazmic rush when you squash them on your club. I love that feel, it’s so pleasurable.
