Maxfli Tour X Golf ball compression, specs & review
The Maxfli Tour X is a 102-compression, 4-piece golf ball with a urethane cover, high spin and a mid flight. A four-piece cast urethane (soft, grippy cover) ball gauged at 102 compression in MyGolfSpy's 2026 ball test (Maxfli states 100), producing the fastest ball speeds and highest greenside spin in the Maxfli lineup, with proven PGA Tour performance at a fraction of premium ball pricing.

Compression
How soft the ball feels. Lower numbers (70–80) compress easier and help slower swings get distance. Higher (90+) rewards faster swings.
Cover
Surlyn is tough and cheap — great for distance and durability. Urethane is softer and grips wedges for more spin around the green.
Layers
2-piece: simple, long, straight. 3-piece and 4-piece add layers for more feel and spin control on approach shots.
Trajectory
How high the ball flies. Low = flatter flight with more roll. High = peaks up and lands soft. Mid = balanced.
Spin
Low spin = straighter shots, less curve, more roll. High spin = more control and stopping power on the green (but also magnifies slices/hooks).
Tier
Price bucket. Value = budget-friendly distance balls. Mid = solid all-around. Premium = tour-level spin and feel, costs more per dozen.
Best For
Try a sleeve first — ~$5 for 3 balls before committing to a dozen.

A four-piece cast urethane (soft, grippy cover) ball gauged at 102 compression in MyGolfSpy’s 2026 ball test (Maxfli states 100), producing the fastest ball speeds and highest greenside spin in the Maxfli lineup, with proven PGA Tour performance at a fraction of premium ball pricing.
Who It’s For
The Maxfli Tour X is built for faster swing speeds (105 mph and above). It suits golfers who prioritize tour players, high swing speed, distance, low handicap. In the Maxfli lineup, the Tour X sits firmer than the Maxfli Tour.
Feel
With a measured compression of 102 and a urethane cover, feel is firm and explosive, with a crisp click at impact that fast swingers tend to like.
Spin Profile
Speed is what the robot found: in MyGolfSpy’s 2026 robot test the Tour X had the fourth-fastest driver ball speed of 48 balls at 102 and 116 mph and the third-fastest at 86 mph, with driver spin in the middle of the pack (about 2,780 rpm at 102 mph). Around the green it is the spinniest Maxfli: about 5,850 rpm on the 35-yard wedge, sixth of 48 in that test.
Trajectory & Construction
It flies high off the driver, fifth-highest apex at 116 mph (about 91 feet) in the robot data, and the 7-iron flew the highest of all 48 balls, at the cost of the shortest 7-iron carry in the field (153 yards). The four-piece build, two mantles under a cast urethane cover, is what lets a 102-compression ball post those ball speeds and still spin on wedges. Works best in warmer conditions.
Price & Value
Priced at $39.99 per dozen, the Tour X sits in the value-tour sweet spot — roughly 80% of premium performance for 65% of the cost.
Buy it if
- You swing fast and want distance: MyGolfSpy measured it second of 48 in total driver distance at 116 mph.
- You want the most wedge spin in the Maxfli line and will trade some cover durability for it.
Skip it if
- You want a soft feel. At 102 compression it feels firm, even though firmer balls tended to be faster off the driver at every swing speed in robot testing.
- You play cold-weather golf; 102 compression is firm before the temperature drops.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the compression of the Maxfli Tour X golf ball?
The Maxfli Tour X has a compression of about 102, which puts it in the high-compression range. That is the reading on MyGolfSpy’s 2026 gauge, two points above Maxfli’s stated 100; on the course that reads as a crisp, fast feel rather than a soft one. It is one of several specs the BallCaddie fitting quiz weighs against your swing speed, usual miss, feel preference and budget.
Who should play the Maxfli Tour X?
The Maxfli Tour X is built for faster swing speeds (105 mph and above). It suits golfers who prioritize tour players, high swing speed, distance, low handicap.
What swing speed is the Maxfli Tour X designed for?
Maxfli aims it at fast swingers, and the robot backs that up: top-ten driver carry at all three speeds in MyGolfSpy’s 2026 robot test, including 292 yards at 116 mph, third of 48. Slower swings can still play it; the ball speed advantage showed up at 86 mph too.
Does the Maxfli Tour X have high greenside spin?
Yes. It ranked sixth of 48 for 35-yard wedge spin in the 2026 robot data, the best wedge number of the Maxfli Tour balls.
Is the Maxfli Tour X good in cold weather?
Not especially. It is the firmest Maxfli, and a firm ball gets firmer and clickier in cold air; if you play through winter, the Tour S is the softer Maxfli.
How much does the Maxfli Tour X cost?
MSRP is $39.99 per dozen.
