TaylorMade Soft Response — frequently asked
What is the compression of the TaylorMade Soft Response?
Stymie's catalog records the TaylorMade Soft Response at 60 compression. 60 sits on the softer end of Stymie's current directory. Manufacturers may use different compression tests, so compare cross-brand values directionally.
Is the TaylorMade Soft Response a tour ball?
No. The Soft Response is a soft feel ball. It prioritizes distance and feel over greenside spin.
What swing speed is the TaylorMade Soft Response best for?
A 60 compression rating does not establish one required driver speed. Use it as a relative feel reference, then compare the Soft Response's cover, construction, flight and spin positioning; TaylorMade positions this model for mid-to-high handicap players who want soft feel and forgiveness. On-course or launch-monitor testing is the best final check.
Does the TaylorMade Soft Response spin a lot around the green?
The Surlyn cover generally emphasizes durability and a different feel/spin balance than a urethane tour ball. TaylorMade positions this model around distance.
How much does the TaylorMade Soft Response cost?
MSRP is $25.00 per dozen. That is a value-tier price — under half the cost of a premium tour ball.
Where can I check the current price of the TaylorMade Soft Response?
Use the Amazon check-price link on this page, then compare the same dozen count and model year with the manufacturer and major golf retailers. Prices, stock, shipping, personalization, and multi-dozen offers change frequently, so Stymie does not claim that one seller is always cheapest.
