Tour B RXS
The Bridgestone Tour B RXS is a 3-piece urethane golf ball with gradational core (a core that gets firmer from center to edge) and REACTIV iQ cover (smart cover that adapts to impact speed), optimized for swing speeds under 105 mph to deliver distance, soft feel, and high greenside spin.
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 Bridgestone Tour B RXS is built for moderate swing speeds (roughly 90–105 mph). It suits golfers who prioritize moderate swing speed, low handicap, greenside control, soft feel. In the Bridgestone lineup, the Tour B RXS sits firmer than the Bridgestone e12 Contact and softer than the Bridgestone e12 Speed.
Feel
With a compression of 76 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. Performs well in cooler temperatures.
Price & Value
At $54.99 per dozen, this is a full-price tour ball. Expect the construction, cover, and performance to match.

- Greenside spin and stopping power matter more than durability.
- You play a lot of shoulder-season or cold-weather golf.
Skip it if
- Your driver already spins too much — more spin means more slice.
