Yellow golf balls are balls you hit at your local driving range or low quality golf balls. No self-respecting golfer would ever use a yellow golf ball on the driving range. Right?
That’s all about to change with the new version of the popular Srixon Z-STAR Tour Yellow golf balls. Yep, that is right a tour caliber premium yellow golf ball!
At the 2010 PGA Merchandise Show, Srixon quietly announced the Z-STAR and Z-STARx Tour Yellow golf balls and I have to say I was quite suspicious about why anyone would want to play a yellow golf ball.
Yellow Ball
Have you ever attempted to path a golf ball on a clear and sunny day? Even with sunglasses on, you can easily lose the golf ball in the air.
To solve this problem, Srixon did a lot of testing backed by scientific data that has proven, that yellow is the most visible color in the visual spectrum and psychology has linked green with calming and stress relief. Take the two findings and you have the Srixon Z-STAR and Z-STARx Tour Yellow golf balls.
Tour Yellow is a unique combination of yellow and green to formulate the next generations of tour golf balls. The Tour Yellow balls has been played by some of Cleveland Golf Tour Staff like Vijay Singh and Jim Furyk. It will be interesting to see what the reaction will be on Tour by fellow rivals and the fans.
Z-STAR
The Z-STAR is a high-performance multilayered ball with low compression and particularly soft feel. This is the softer of the two Z-STAR balls which is great around the greens and distance control with your golf putter. The only point different is the color!
The Z-STAR Tour Yellow may turn heads on the course and make it easier to find the golf ball, but I am curious to see if it will make me more comfortable?
I am willing to try the Srixon Z-STAR Tour Yellow. What about you?
