SRIXON PRO UR-X £40 a dozen

DESIGN

Energetic Gradient Growth core provides a blend of soft centre and firmer outer to offer distance and feel.

PERFORMANCE

This new Srixon model was among the softer feeling balls off the driver with a mid-height trajectory and it gave just the right controlled feel off the putter too.

TOTAL GOLF VERDICT

This is a fairly soft ball that will help low handicappers control long and short shots - ideal for the summer.
