I have been playing the XS Tour for the last 6 months or so. Great control on and around the greens. Doesn't back-up, but holds very well. Perfect combination of distance and control for me. Plays well into the breeze and rolls well off the driver. softer than NXT Titleist and Maxfli Noodle.

I got a sleeve of these at an outing an was very impressed. IMHO they have a great feel, good distance and decent control. I can't make them suck back but they hold the greens well and will spin back on short irons hit into a breeze. One minor complaint is they seem to balloon a little into the wind. Great bang for the buck.

I've tried this along with other low compression distance balls such as Titleist NXT Tour/Distance, Maxfli Noodle, Dunlop Loco, and Precept Laddie. All of which goes quite long from a distance perspective, but the only balls that held the green with good spin action are Titleist NXT Tour (not distance) and Precept Laddie. On contact, the Laddies were too soft and too mute (causing great uncomfort and steering the shot somewhat). The NXT Tour is the poor man's Pro V1's. Unfortunately, I would say the Maxfli XS Tour was worst of them all, then followed by Noodle and Loco. These balls are true distance balls that feel softer. I think I was playing better with Top Flite 3000 Super Long, which is a pure distance ball that surprisingly held the green!? Pricing is not great neither for XS Tour because there are plenty of better selections nearing $1 to $1.50 per ball.

Started using this ball late in the summer when my game went south. I was looking for a quality ball with a lower price tag. I find XS Tour to be a quality ball for the price. Beware, a well struck wedge or short iron will scuff this ball in a hurry. These Maxflis hold greens, but I haven't backed one up yet in about 30 rounds. They have a good soft feel on chips and putts, and have stayed in round (except the scuffing). Not a high performance ball, but the XS Tour easliy out performs its price.

Still waiting for that rebate!! Been several weeks.

Good distance, nice feel, but these balls have not held greens for me. Even on high wedge shots, they will release several feet forward rather than checking up. You can't beat it for a buck, but this is not a GREAT all-around ball IMO.

My father got me a sleeve of these balls for an X-mas stocking stuffer. I used them for the first 3 rounds I went golfing this year AND shot my first sub 90 round with it. I knew it was a Masfli, but didn't know what model it was until yesterday (9/8/02) when I got my dad to check the store where he bought the balls. Great feel, decent distance and now I see the price at $10 for 15?!? I've been a DT Spin man for the last year at $15 but I'll be a Maxfli XS Tour man from now on.

It's a golf ball for God's sake

This ball represents a great value. Currently priced at $14.99 or $15.99 (less a $5 mfg. rebate] for a 15 ball pack. My home course has a number of holes with deep rough, woods, and water. Errant shots were costing not only strokes, but $3.50 or thereabouts for a premium ball. Then on the recommendation of a salesman at a golf shop I tried the XS Tour. This ball is a very solid performer. Good distance and feel. Not a great deal of spin, but consistent predictable performance. As a previous reviewer noted the XS Tour will scuff as the result of clean wedge shots, but not sufficiently to impede performance or detract from its value. .Recently review very positively in Golf Digest. Bottom line: a very solid performer at a great price

I've used these off and on for the past 3 years. It was a really good $2 ball last year, but it's an outstanding $1 ball in the new 15 ball bonus pack. It's a little firmer than the new generation two piece spin balls. But the spin and control is still there. If you rely on touch around the greens, you won't be disapointed. Durability is good, but a well struck wedge will fray the cover.

Customer Service

Good. Sent an email to Maxfli to confirm that they didn't change the ball when they put them in bonus packs. They replied same day that the ball was unchanged from last year.
