Great review with interesting results I do find Callaway very good in the wind and nice soft feel.

I use the chrome soft soccer ball - hi vis yellow- I really like how it is sneaky long when I tap it good off the screws - more often than not it stops well on the greens - watching the cool spin pattern on short chips or sand shots it just fun… really like that visual feedback - very good video- thanks

That was my favorite thing about the graphics on that ball, being able to see the spin on short shots. I think that would be eye opening for beginners and high handicappers to practice short game shots with a ball like that.

Same ,My only hole in one was with an Callaway Supersoft. 144 yards -9’iron .

Used to play Bridgestone B-330Rxs and just happened to find a supersoft randomly in the rough.I thought they were nothing special,until I hit it.Wow what a great ball! It's all I've played for the last 4 years.

When I tried the chrome soft, I noticed I lost a lot of spin on approach shot/and around the green. Glad you confirmed this! I thought maybe it was just me.

I just tested the new 2021 version of Supersoft on the course yesterday. I gotta say I really liked it. I bought the red ones for visibility . They came off the clubs just fine and cooperated well with the putter. They went a long way and held green well. Much better than the past series. They really have improved them quite a bit.

Very good review I'm 62 and 8 handicap always used the prov but have lost distance over the last couple of years, won a dozen of these supersoft and tried them WOW these balls are long dont have the spin as the prov but they stop on the green love the soft feel, only problem is hitting them 10 to 15 yards longer with iron, example 7 iron 150-155 prov with supersoft 165-175 Really like the fill and distance just will have to club down Love it for a old hack LoL

Awesome to hear that, Jim. That's why I like to stress getting the RIGHT ball for your swing instead of the "best" ball.

Thanks for varying the swing speed for average golfers!

Been playing Supersoft for last 2 seasons and they are great; play off 5 handicap and at 70 yrs, my swing speed is in high 80's and these work just as well as any high end ball including Pro V1's

I practice with supersoft and play tournaments with ERC…although I do practice around the practice green with ERC

I bring two types of golf balls to the course when I play in tournaments. If I just want to hit it straight I’m going with the super soft. If I need a little fade or draw I’m going with a chrome soft or similar construction for spin. I just wish I could alternate the ball during different shots on each hole, but, of course that’s illegal lol

Nice review. Did you use the 2021 version of the Supersoft? I understand they added paraloid to the cover now. I just purchased some red Supersofts with the improved cover via the parloid so I am going to be testing them myself over the next few days. I had been using the Vice pro softs but their website has gotten difficult to order from of late so I decided to try the Callaway Supersofts.

What is paraloid? Is it the outer coating of the balls? I'm not sure if I'm referencing the same thing, but one of my boxes of Supersofts (yellow color) was more glossy-looking balls and another box was slightly more matte. Not sure which one is the newer version...

It could be a balance issue for the supersoft. Maybe the production quality isn’t as good. I would use a ball spinner on the SS to try to narrow the dispersion!

I played super soft a few years ago and loved them, the only issue is they would split easier than any golf ball I've used, but for the price they were great

The super soft fits my game, and I’ll never play with any other golf ball. This ball jumps off my driver and irons. I also love the way it rolls off my putter.

Super soft is a good ball for my swing speed, but so is the Titleist Trufeel. They’re very similar performance wise, but I find the Trufeel a little more durable and it spins more around the greens.

I think for people around 90 mph swing speed, the Supersoft is great. When I play the Supersoft, I lose nearly 40 yards off my driver at 115-118 mph stock driver speed. I personally play the Chromesoft X LS because it gets me the most ball speed off driver, but would gladly play the normal Chromesoft if I find one. I personally like a bit firmer feeling golf ball, so it's just personal preference at that point. Nice video! Good info.

@@jumbroni6014 Over compression is a real thing. So what you said isn't all together true. The more you compress a ball, the more surface area of the ball comes into contact with the driver face. Having an excessive amount of compression causes pretty significant dips in ball speed due to surface tensions between the face of the driver and the ball. Furthermore, in extreme cases, the front tangent of the ball can 'clap' the rear tangent and soak up speeds even more.

@@SGIABC I'm not convinced of this. What I think happens is the ball compresses so much that your swing path becomes more of an issue affecting flight. That's why when you smash a super soft ball it often goes left or right and you aren't sure why that happens. I myself have rarely seen a super soft ball nor get the distance required.

Completely agree. I love everything about the super soft except I did find I was losing yardage with driver. Bridgestone for me performed much better off the tee but doesn't have that soft feel of the super soft or a pro V1

I got more distance with the super soft over the ProV1x?

supersoft is the best bang for your buck. also feels great coming off of the club. I prefer the chromesoft, but the performance difference doesn't justify the price difference for me (at least to regularly use the chromesoft)

Same here. Chrome soft is double the price and I cannot justify it. I play well with both of them with no real appreciable difference. There was a time when the Super Softs main issue was that it would not hold green well at all. At that time Chrome soft had a bigger gap in its favor. With the recent improvements to Super Soft that has diminished that gap. Although priced in the lower sector of golf balls Super soft is the premium ball of the lower priced area. I wouldn't use anything else.

I play with blades so I am always looking to play the softest ball I can.

Probably why they don't make them anymore.

It was 53 on the course today so for the heck of it I tried the super soft. I don’t care what launch monitors say, at my swing speed (I’m almost 65 and swing about 96 w my driver) that ball goes a LOT farther. My issue is I could not remotely control the distance w my short irons. I normally hit my 9 iron 135 or a bit farther but twice I hit solid shots that went 150+, and that was in very cool misty weather. To me it feels like it just trampolines off the face. I also think it has a lot more dispersion. I like the way it comes off the putter. If I could control the distance better it would make me at least a club longer.

Super Soft balls are not for a 96 mph swing speed. :) A higher compression ball is more suited for you Anthony.

Ok, I’m missing something. You lost yards on driver with Supersoft but you’re talking about more distance and more roll. I doubt you’ll make up 13 yards of roll with 100 rpm of spin.

What do you think is the best budget ball for someone that swings around 100 mph?

I am a big fan of the Srixon Q-Star Tour. www.underpargoals.com/srixon-q-star-tour-review/ For about $30/dozen, it's probably the best value out there. Especially since they have a urethane blend cover that is usually reserved for the premium balls.

Funny that the softer "distance ball" only went 216? I'm a mid handicapper but wouldn't use the super soft.

Still think you put a blank ball in the hands of 98% of golfers hands and let them play 9 holes with each they'd not notice hardly any difference

Your narrative and conclusions do not track with the data. You said the Super-soft ball was a distance ball, yet it is 13 yards behind the Chrome Soft and you just glossed over that. How can that be if the wedge and 7 iron distance was about the same for both balls. Could you do a test at a lower swing speed with the driver, say 80, and see if the Super Soft ball is closer in performance to Chrome Soft.

There's a difference. They are made from different material. You can do this test with 20 different golf balls and get the same result.

do you realize how long you stand there and talk.
