What customers say about "Key Specs"
Srixon Q-Star Golf Balls (1-Dozen)
  • Best golf ball on the market for intermediate players (15-20 hdcp). Beginners (30+ hdcp) should play with any ball under $20 a box (box = 12 balls, a sleeve = 3 balls).
  • Over-compression means less distance. I've tried Bridgestone e5 and e6, but I have consistently scored lower with the Q-Star.
  • They seem to fly pretty straight, so far only 4 of them haven't had the proper aerodynamics to fly straight and land in the middle of the fairway.
  • Best overall distance ball I have ever played. 18 Hcp
  • Q-Stars don't have the feel of a premium ball off the club face in my opinion, but they do spin pretty nicely with the low irons and I chip/putt well with them too.
Srixon Q-Star Tour Golf Balls (One Dozen)
  • Distance, control,spin, and most importantly FEEL. And this ball is half the price of the titleist.
  • Greenside spin, great feel, as close to Prov1 as I've found for the price. Highly recommended!!!
  • I used to play the Q-Star and decided to get a dozen of these to test. Now I switched to the Tour. Still great off the driver, flies high and straight, not much difference from the original Q-Star (my clubhead speed is about 98-102 MPH).
  • I like the Srixon Q-Star Tour because it gives me more distance while still having enough spin to hold a shot into the green.
  • I normally do not write about golf equipment and find a lot of reviews to behard to believe. Playing for quite a while and using a lot of different golf balls these are the best I have ever used.

What customers say about "Features"
Srixon Q-Star Golf Balls (1-Dozen)
  • These are soft enough to get good feedback on putts(i think putting feedback is better with these than pro v1s, but I use a solid brass putter which probably has a lot to do with it.
  • They also gave a nice roll on the fair ways. Overall, I would recommend these to any golfer. A great design and ball.
  • These balls are soft around the green yet LONG off the tee - If you have a FAST swing speed, these may not be the best off the tee for you..
  • Great price and good quality for the price. Would purchase again. Works well with the shots I play. I don't shape shots too much cause I'm not good at it.
  • These were getting scuffed fairly bad every 3 holes or so... loved the feel, distance... everything about them. But I'm not willing to pay for 5 balls per round...
Srixon Q-Star Tour Golf Balls (One Dozen)
  • The three core layers are supposed to help your ball hit off the tee faster and straighter (less spin). I do think these curve a little less and that helps me stay on the straight and narrow.
  • However, the Tour is VERY durable. I played 18 holes with one ball and the cover doesn't have a mark on it anywhere.
  • Excellent three piece ball w/ pro level cover. Nicks a little easier than the Z but for swing speeds in the 80s and 90s worth a try.
  • Cover is the most durable I have come across. Compared to the Callaway Chrome Soft, the Srixon is superior in every way, at least for my game.
  • I actually bit one of these pretty hard to see how the cover was, and did create some scratches.
