The 2025 Q-STAR TOUR is Srixon’s upgraded tour-quality ball for players with moderate swing speeds (≈ 75+ mph) who want the soft feel and control of urethane without sacrificing too much distance. It features a reformulated FastLayer core, a softer premium urethane cover coated with Spin Skin, and 338 Speed Dimples. With a compression rating of 74, it balances approach shot bite, straighter drives, and responsive feel. 

Key Technical Features

• FastLayer Core (Reformulated) — Soft in the center and firmer toward the edge; this generation is tuned with a slightly higher compression rating to boost tee-to-green ball speed while dampening long-game sidespin.

• Premium Urethane Cover + Spin Skin Coating — The cover is ultra-thin and soft with Spin Skin technology to enhance friction, improving spin and control on iron and wedge shots.

• 338 Speed Dimple Pattern — Designed for better aerodynamics: reduced drag, more lift, more consistent flight, particularly in windy/degrading conditions.

• Compression: 74 — Softer-feel compression that supports players who don’t generate extreme swing speed but who want premium feel and stopping power.

• Construction: 3-Piece — Gives good layering (core + mantle + cover) that helps with control, spin, and overall feel. 

Performance Profile & Fit

• Great for mid-handicap golfers looking to move up to a urethane ball without paying “tour ball” prices.

• Delivers softened impact and more spin on short and mid irons; still gives good performance off the tee.

• Helps address problems like lack of greenside bite, mis-placed drives due to sidespin; more consistent ball flight under moderate speeds.

• Provides soft feedback through putts, chips, and shots around the green, but maintains enough firmness for drives and long irons.

• Built with Srixon’s proven technology and quality standards—feel and performance you can trust from ball to ball.
