TOUR-CALIBER COVER
A new urethane coating with flexible molecular bonds digs deep into wedge and iron grooves for increased friction and maximum spin.
SeRM REVOLUTION
Tour performance starts around the green: the pros demand world-class spin and stopping power. Q-STAR TOUR delivers with an ultra-thin, premium urethane cover that’s coated in Slide Ring Material (SeRM).
THE SPIN REVOLUTION CONTINUES
Spin Skin with SeRM is a proprietary golf ball coating developed by Srixon. The coating enhances spin at an atomic level because its molecules are bonded together using moveable cross-links. These cross-links work like microscopic pulleys and ropes, distributing loads evenly among the molecular chains that are the building blocks of Q-STAR TOUR’s urethane cover. That even distribution of shearing force makes the urethane cover incredibly elastic. So elastic, in fact, that
it expands into your wedge and iron grooves at impact. That added bite increases friction on all your approach shots. And that extra friction.
DRAG LESS, GLIDE MORE
Speed Dimples reduce drag and increase lift, creating just the right aerodynamic conditions for maximum flight distance. A lower drag coefficient means the ball cuts through air with less resistance for more speed and a more penetrating launch. That reduced drag also fights against the wind, so your shots fly straighter in harsh conditions.
A higher lift coefficient pushes up on the ball throughout its decent, slowing its fall and forcing it to stay in the air longer for maximized distance.
FASTLAYER CORE
How can you fit tour distance and exceptionally soft feel into a single golf ball? FastLayer.
We start with the core of the core. Then, we add the layers. Thousands of them. Until we’ve built a core that’s firm enough to deliver the explosive distance you expect, yet soft enough for feel you never thought possible in a tour ball.
DISTANCE, ACCURACY, AND GREAT FEEL
With its graduated transition from soft inner core to firm outer edge, FastLayer behaves like a core with thousands of layers, giving you distance and softer feel without compromise. The new Q-STAR TOUR features our softest FastLayer core with tourcaliber performance. That means distance and short game spin like you’ve always seen on tour, but softer feel than you’ve ever seen on tour. A softer core also dramatically reduces long game sidespin. That means your driver and wood shots fly straighter and stay on target for more accuracy off the tee.
DRAG-DEFYING D IMPLES - 338 SPEED DIMPLE PATTERN
The 338 Speed Dimples featured on Q-STAR TOUR improve overall aerodynamics for better flight performance with drivers, woods, and irons. With just the right combination of dimple uniformity and dimple occupancy, the Speed Dimples boost distance and go straight, even in the toughest wind conditions.
