TaylorMade completes 2024 golf ball line with SpeedSoft, SpeedSoft Ink

Published

on

TaylorMade today announced a new, two-piece, ionomer-covered, low-compression, $25-per-dozen addition to its golf ball lineup: SpeedSoft.

Leveraging technology from its flagship TP5/TP5x lineup, TaylorMade has delivered a soft golf ball that maintains “explosive speeds for the everyday golfer.”

TaylorMade markets the SpeedSoft as the softest ball in its lineup and “the ideal blend of performance and affordability,” powered by its large, low-compression PWRCORE.

“SpeedSoft represents a significant stride in our ongoing commitment to delivering performance products to golfers of all skills,” says Josh Dipert, Director of Product Development Engineering, Golf Ball. “With a deliberate focus on engineering a low-compression design, this is the first time we’ve created a TaylorMade golf ball with a compression delta below 50. SpeedSoft stands out as a game-changer for its unparalleled combination of soft feel and explosive speeds.”

In addition, TaylorMade is debuting a new visual technology in the form of SpeedSoft Ink and a paint-splatter design.

The high-contrast, high-visibility design leverages similar multi-axis printing technology as TaylorMade’s Pix lineup, but at a more accessible price point.

“The market demand for golf balls with visual technology is on the rise, reflecting a growing segment of golfers who seek more than just the traditional white ball experience,” said Michael Fox, Senior Director of Product Creation, Golf Ball. “We feel like this is a segment that has previously been ignored, and with SpeedSoft Ink we are meeting this demand while also taking a bold step towards catering to the modern golfer’s desire for visual technology without sacrificing performance.”

Colorways include green, blue, and pink as well as red and orange in “jar ball offerings” at retail.

It does have one small nick on the face near the toe as shown, otherwise in amazing new condition.  -BOS reconditioned and received last month. Oil can finish as done new by BOS when this putter was released many moons ago. -Head cover is authentic SC and shows age. Velcro is worthless of course, but does stay closed.  -Length is 34.25 inches, original shaft. -Grip is old and needs replacing.

Mitsubishi Diamana WB: What you need to know + club build, on-course testing

Published

on

GolfWRX’s Resident Club Junkie, Brian Knudson, was naturally excited to get his hands on Mitsubishi’s new Diamana WB shaft.

In this video, BK gives you a brief overview of the new WB, builds up a driver, and takes it to the course for some testing.

With the rebirth of the iconic Whiteboard profile, Mitsubishi didn’t just re-issue a classic, but rather infused all the company’s latest tech into a new shaft, paying homage to the original with its quintessentially Hawaiian-inspired stylings. A summary of that impressive roster of technology, below.

  • 80-ton Dialead pitch fiber: Positioned in the handle, Dialead is designed to deliver greater ball speed via better energy transfer.
  • Aerospace-grade MR70 carbon fiber adds additional strength, and 46-ton fiber in angle plies in the tip section reduce torque for tighter shot dispersion.
  • Consistent Feel Design: Engineers target minimal variance across shafts (butt OD, weight, and balance point) to make the fitting process easier.
  • Xlink Tech Resin System: Engineers continue to reduce resin content and increase carbon fiber volume for greater feel without sacrificing strength and durability.
