Maxfli 2025 Tour Golf Ball Review

Maxfli has been making a name for itself with its revamped tour golf ball lineup, which has recently seen two victories on the PGA Tour. With a very interesting price point that has the potential to disrupt the market, I wanted to put the new 2025 Maxfli Tour ball through its paces to see if it could compete with the best balls in the game…

Reading the packaging of the two Maxfli boxes I was provided with, the Tour ball is a 3-piece urethane construction that is designed to feel a little softer, fly a little lower, and spin a little less than its X counterpart.

For context, I tested the Maxfli Tour against its sibling, the Tour X, and the 2025 Titleist Pro V1, using the Foresight Sports GC3 launch monitor to get a flavour of the performance characteristics on offer.

With every club I tried—from the driver to the 7-iron and even with a sand wedge—the raw performance data between the Maxfli Tour and the Pro V1 was incredibly similar. The ball speed, carry distance, and spin numbers were all within a negligible margin. It was genuinely surprising to see two balls from different ends of the price spectrum perform with such parity.

Truth be told, the only discernible difference I could find was in the feel. The Maxfli Tour, while offering a softer and more muted sensation than the Tour X, felt a touch "clickier" off the clubface compared to the buttery-smooth feel of the Pro V1. This difference, however, had absolutely no bearing on the raw data and performance numbers, and as such will pose a question to potential purchasers: how important is feel to you?

Staying with some of the parameters that are less quantifiable with a launch monitor, the Maxfli Tour still performed admirably. Durability, for example, I hit at least 30 shots with a sand wedge, 7-iron, and driver (far more than you would hit during even two rounds of golf), and the cover stood up extremely well with only minimal marking.

The 2025 Maxfli Tour is a genuinely intriguing product that performs like a premium, tour-level ball at a price point that is frankly unmatched in the market. The fact that the Maxfli Tour is available for $39.99 a dozen makes it an incredible deal for a ball of this quality. Its ability to go toe-to-toe with the category-leading Pro V1 in terms of data makes it a serious contender for any golfer's bag.
