February 7, 2014 – TaylorMade Golf Company<\/a><\/strong> has announced the release of Tour Preferred<\/strong> and Tour Preferred X<\/strong>: two Tour-calibre golf balls that provide complete tee-to-green performance.<\/p>\n

After a decade of prototyping and testing with the world\u2019s best players, the company believes the new Tour Preferred franchise is the best performing ball the company has released to date.<\/p>\n

\u201cGolf ball innovation doesn\u2019t just happen overnight. Rather, it is a series of on going conversation with our Tour players,\u201d<\/em> said Dean Snell<\/strong>, vice president of golf ball R&D. \u201cThese conversations have led to the introduction of breakthrough technologies including low drag aerodynamics for ultimate wind resistance, a five-layer construction for superior control throughout the club set and now our softest and most durable cover.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Key to the performance<\/strong> of the Tour Preferred and Tour Preferred X golf ball line is TaylorMade\u2019s patented and proven technologies, including:<\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  • REACT Core<\/strong> for greater ball speed on all shots for increased distance.<\/li>\n
  • Spin Mantle<\/strong> designed to deliver precise and consistent spin rates on given shots throughout the bag.<\/li>\n
  • Low-Drag Performance Aerodynamics<\/strong> (LDP), A 322-dimple pattern designed to minimise distance loss on low spin shots and also maintain a penetrating ball flight into the wind.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    A new technology featured in the golf balls is Soft Tech<\/strong>, TaylorMade\u2019s softest and most durable cover to date. Made of a cast urethane, the new cover provides an even softer feel around the greens than previous TaylorMade offerings.\u00a0The Soft Tech cover will also provide higher resistance to shearing and will last longer.<\/p>\n
