UltiSpeed
A 3-piece ionomer (durable, firm cover) distance ball with a FastLayer Core and 338 Speed Dimples, delivering high flight, low driver spin, and extreme distance for moderate swing speed golfers.
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 Srixon UltiSpeed is built for moderate swing speeds (roughly 90–105 mph). It suits golfers who prioritize moderate swing speed, high handicap, distance, beginners. In the Srixon lineup, the UltiSpeed sits firmer than the Srixon Q-Star Tour and softer than the Srixon Distance.
Feel
With a compression of 85 and a ionomer cover, feel is balanced — soft enough for touch shots, firm enough for a lively tee strike.
Spin Profile
Expect low driver spin for more carry and roll — forgiving of minor strike inconsistency. Around the green, the cover gives you workmanlike short-game spin — not tour-grade, but dependable for chips and pitches.
Trajectory & Construction
A high-launching ball — better for golfers who struggle to get the ball up or want maximum carry. 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 $29.99 per dozen, the UltiSpeed is a value pick. Expect distance and durability over tour-grade wedge spin.
Buy it if
- You sit in the 90–105 mph range and want a ball that works across your bag.
- You slice or hook under spin and want a ball that amplifies your good drives.
- You lose more than a sleeve a round and don’t want to grimace every time.
Skip it if
- You score in the 70s and greenside spin is your scoring advantage.
- You’re playing below 50°F — consider a softer-feeling ball in the cold.
