Soft Feel
A 2-piece ionomer (durable, firm cover) ball with a 60 compression FastLayer core for ultra-soft feel, low driver spin, mid-high trajectory, and enhanced distance at a budget-friendly price.
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 Soft Feel is built for slower swing speeds (under ~95 mph). It suits golfers who prioritize beginners, slow swing speed, soft feel, great value. In the Srixon lineup, the Soft Feel sits softer than the Srixon Q-Star.
Feel
With a compression of 60 and a ionomer cover, feel is noticeably soft off the face — marshmallow at impact, quiet off the putter.
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 2-piece construction uses a straightforward two-piece build — a large core for distance and a cover tuned for durability over spin separation. Performs well in cooler temperatures.
Price & Value
At $24.99 per dozen, the Soft Feel is a value pick. Expect distance and durability over tour-grade wedge spin.
Buy it if
- Your swing speed is under ~95 mph and you want a ball that actually compresses.
- You play a lot of shoulder-season or cold-weather golf.
- You slice or hook under spin and want a ball that amplifies your good drives.
Skip it if
- You swing over 105 mph — you’ll overcompress the core and lose carry.
- You score in the 70s and greenside spin is your scoring advantage.
