Thank you for your on course testing, of these 2 golf balls.
I've been trying the Stripe, and now trying the TP5. I found over 9 holes of golf. The TP5 was a lot more consistent and controlled than the Stripe. But I've got a dozen of both and some more rounds to play.
Hey Greg thanks for dropping by. I appreciate the comments. I have been using stripe for a while but now experimenting with the tp5x
I used the stripe ball for a short time and was impressed with the feel and the how it played. I would definitely put myself less than the average golfer because of my age and inconsistency (getting better though). Recently I have used a pro v1, for no other reason than I got a good deal on a box and my curiosity needed feeding. Sadly I found I was playing better, drives longer and short game more accurate. I say sadly because I may have to continue gaming the ball until I can convince myself it’s nothing to do with the ball… or I spend my entire pension on prov1 balls. I bloody hate this game 😂😂
Great video Lewis…. You get better every time I see you play. 👍
Thanks for the kind words I'm feeling great at the moment. Long may it continue 😅
Mesh uses pro v and loves them which I think is another factor. Golf all is about confidence so if you confident with a certain ball that's going to give you better results then any other ball, tour quality or not. Thanks again Barrie 🙌
Can’t just base it off drives. The Tour Response is less spin so it’s going further. The TP5 is a higher spinning ball which means it’ll be superior with irons/approach shots and wedges around the green! The Response is going to be a better ball off the tee no doubt.
Thanks for stopping by. As I mentioned at the start I didn't have any data to back anything up, this test was literally to see if an average golfer like myself and like many others can get away with a tour response as opposed to a premium TP5 which is more expensive and the arguement was will we see any difference at our ability between the two balls. Both balls are incredible balls It was just a case of seeing if a tour response ball is good enough in its price range 👍
tp5 made for better players, incredible spin, harder ball... meant for faster swingers.
for an average player, dont waste your money
tp5 shines in areas for example.. 60 yard shot over water and a bunker where the pin is 8 foot off the fringe on a downward slope--- that's where it shines...
I'm all in with q star tour, does everything well.. check out the comparisons between the response and it
@@callaway19647 nicely put 👌👌 oh nice ok, will have a look at the q star cheers 👍👍
This video just isn’t very helpful because you didn’t hit enough balls. You could hit the sweet spot a couple times on one ball and not on the other.
Absolutely fair comment. Ultimately this video was more of an introduction to the two balls, could I see a significant difference between the two balls at completely different price ranges. if you then want to dive further into comparison's then there are plenty more videos out there that would give you the numbers. Performance wise there was nothing wrong with the cheaper ball when comparing to one of the most expensive balls on the market
Might have a look at the Tour Response as I use the Srixon Q Star Tour, and I did a similar test with my ball and a Pro v1 and found the Pro v just a little to clicky for my liking and obviously the price again does help with the decision making.
I know exactly what you mean about the clicky sound. Great ball srixon one. Yeah give your response a go. If you ever do, it would be good to hear back on your thoughts hopefully speak again 👍
Great review! I'm debating on changing to Tour Response
Thanks for watching mate. Glad you liked it. Tour response are great balls definitely worth trying a sleeve yourself.
Really enjoyable video - well done. I think the Tour Response is the best value all rounder golf ball on the market. Fantastic ball
Thanks David. Thanks for watching, I'm glad you like it. Yes I would agree it seems to stack up really well.
mte,Hi. Enjoyed! this is fantastic - farewell- 😈
My ball is the Tour Response!
Such a great ball
great review! about to test this with my gamer B.BXS and maybe the new even cheaper B. e6, ever tried those?
Thanks my friend. Oh cool, no I haven't tried any Bridgestone, I may give them a go. Come back and tell me your thoughts on the balls you try. Thanks for watching 🙌
You can clearly hear you struck the tour response better with both drives.
Maybe you're right. At the time they felt the same but doesn't this cement my theory, being average golfers our strike is inconsistent so would we ever get the most out of a premium ball to warrant the price difference? Thanks for watching 🙌
@@GOLFDAYS data, data, data my friend. You can't make bricks without clay or conclusions without facts. That's all I'm saying.
@@domokun3142 fair comment but people get so bogged down with numbers. At the start of the video I did state there are no numbers just my opinion on how they feel and what I react better to. I'm sure txg do data filled tests which would show all the numbers. This was my opinion on the two. I appreciate the engagement all the same. 👍
I heard someone say that the TP5 is a very unforgiving ball. Your thoughts?
Interesting. I didn't find this. It's a more spinny ball so you could see the argument. You are more likely to get unwanted extra spin (side spin)
As another average golfer I usually stay in the mid priced premium ball range. So in the Titlelist world the Velocity or the one I game now, the Tru Feel. I know it might be a weird criteria but I like the sound of a softer ball versus the clipping sound like the Pro V's make. As I understand it most of the top tier balls have higher and more consistent spin rates, especially with wedges around the greens, which the pros and some other low handicap golfers like. And that is even with the harder outer shell, which accounts for the clipping sound, so they do not sacrifice distance off the tee. I am not at the skill level so I suppose if I get good enough were spin rate becomes a consideration, I might go another route. Enjoyed the analysis either way. It was fair and impartial IMO and shows that the average golfer will likely not benefit from the more expensive ball - except for maybe looking good in front of their friends !! Oh and pretty soon your going to have to call yourself a slightly "better' than average golfer mate.
Yes that was always my look on it being honest. I used always play Wilson balls which were great but yes like you said I wanted a ball that satrted to give me a bit more check up on greens which is why I went up a stage. Im glad the thoughts came across on the video that is was really a case of do we really benefit from tour balls or are we just paying the prices to like you say look clever in front of mates. Thanks for watching 👍
32 yards difference! Almost strange. I guess you did strike Response a little better even it didn’t felt so. I have hit all Titleist balls and regarding distance they are about the same for me…as an average golfer with exception for AVX which is longer. Lower spin, longer drives. I guess that is the other reason for your results…Response spin less.
I have also tried the Response ball. For me it is shorter on driver compared to AVX, but about five yards longer on irons. Response spin a little more on the greens for me compared to AVX.
Then I don’t like the stripe pattern on the Response ball…I haven’t tried the yellow or white.
Which ball to play? Same every time. Choose the one you like the feel and look of.
Great review! Thank you!
Hello Jonas
Thanks for the great insight into your experience. You are probably absolutely right with what you say, I must have caught it a little better. I suppose this again proves the point I make that we will never be consistent enough to really benefit from the top of the range balls so do we need them.
I love your details about the other balls thanks. I quite like the stripe but don't like the srixon divide balls (half one colour)
Yeah I agree that sometimes you play the ball that just feels right to you.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the discussion.
I used TR for long time now, then the titleist AVX came out and I hit them it definitely got more bounce and distance then TR. But around the green not so friendly as TR as I heavily depend on shot game scoring. the price point is around 15 dollars different. Not worth it back to TR for me.
Thanks for the insight Freddy. It's great to try new balls but great to be able to go back to a ball you trust 👍👍
For me, also a average golfer, the TP5 is the shortest ball I've played. Nice feel around the green but I need an extra club on every shot going there.
Mate I'm right there with you. I am gonna experiment with the tp5x but I am totally in the same boat with you mate. Thanks for watching
Well done, chocked with COMMON SENSE!! Good review
Thanks mate. Thanks for watching 🙌
Great vid! People are so mad the tour response beat out the tp5. I would rather have more control off the tee with the tour response
Thanks for watching. I still play it now. It's such a great ball
We can’t talk about price anymore on these. The fact the tour response is now 42.99 in the states as opposed to 39.99….the gap between them and the top tier TP5 & TP5x is almost zero spread over a dozen.
My fitter suggested the TR for me and my session data showed it was working with my swing and iron build.
I’m gonna try and game the tp5x as well to compare.
Yeah there doesn't seem to be much of a gap anymore you are right. Thanks for sharing your opinions my friend 🙌
Yeah there doesn't seem to be much of a gap anymore you are right. Thanks for sharing your opinions my friend 🙌
tp5 for me...and I like usa look better than stripe
Yeah sweet. I do like the pix but not enough to swap performance and price
They are a similar price at the moment . You can even get the Tp5 for £30 at my local golf shop so i bought a couple of boxes. The Tour stripe was £39
It is amazing how the prices change though I did work out the reason why they are cheaper is because they have just brought out a new 2024 version of the tp5 and tp5x
@@GOLFDAYS yeah thats right. But tour stripe are not worth 39.99
@@mrb9849 I do agree. I bought more for 31 on Amazon the other day
Playing this ball also. Well done
thanks my friend. they are great balls.
I know this blog is a year old, but I wanted to see if anyone else had experienced the same thing I did when gaming these two balls.
I played the stripe last year for about 6 months, then switched to the TP5 pix for the last couple of rounds and I’m sold on the TP5! I’m not a long hitter, so my short game has always been good; I’ve hit more FIR with the TP5’s and that feel around the greens are to die for!
So after trying several balls out this past year, I think I’ll stick w/the TP5pix at least til the end of the year.
Great review! 🙌🏾
Hey thanks for your sharing your experience. I personally find the tour gives me the best numbers but that's the great thing, everyone finds something different
