Pro S
Mizuno's softer tour ball with a urethane cover (soft, grippy cover material), gauged firmer than its billing at 96 compression. MyGolfSpy's 2026 robot test named it a low-spin pick for fast swing speeds — firm but low long-game spin with strong iron distance — while the urethane cover keeps tour-level greenside control.
What do these specs mean?
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.

Who It’s For
The Mizuno Pro S is built for moderate swing speeds (roughly 90–105 mph). It suits golfers who prioritize tour players, greenside control, mid-to-high swing speed, soft feel. In the Mizuno lineup, the Pro S sits firmer than the Mizuno RB Max and softer than the Mizuno Pro X.
Feel
With a compression of 96 and a urethane cover, feel is balanced — soft enough for touch shots, firm enough for a lively tee strike.
Spin Profile
Expect controlled (not excessive) driver spin that holds its line in the air. Around the green, the cover gives you tour-level greenside spin and one-hop-stop performance on full wedges.
Trajectory & Construction
A mid-flight window — versatile across course conditions. The 3-piece construction uses a three-piece design — one mantle layer manages driver spin while the cover handles wedge grip. Works best in warmer conditions.
Price & Value
At $50.00 per dozen, this is a full-price tour ball. Expect the construction, cover, and performance to match.
Buy it if
- You sit in the 90–105 mph range and want a ball that works across your bag.
- Greenside spin and stopping power matter more than durability.
Skip it if
- You’re playing below 50°F — consider a softer-feeling ball in the cold.
- Your driver already spins too much — more spin means more slice.
