I purchased 3 dozen of these on special offer but still have 2 dozen left. This is mainly because of there durability. With my old clubs (Titleist 990 short irons & Adams T Watson wedges) the groves just chewed the covers up and not even with good contacts. The last time I used them I used 3 balls in 9 holes and after the round each one went into the practice bag. There durabilty has been mentioned before so I am not alone.

I got a sleeve of these recently because I had heard a lot of good things about the ball. They are long off the tee, they give a lovely medium to high flight and do hold pretty well into the green. In saying that, the greens on my local course are being watered heavily in the morning due to a spell of dry weather, so they should hold no problem. In terms of durability, I pulled out this ball on the 7th tee as I wanted to try it out. When I got to the 11th hole (par Five) I played my third shot from 105 yards out with my 56 degree wedge. I hit thru the ball with a nice decending blow and I knew it was going to be stone dead. But it hit the green and spun back a good ten feet. When I got to the green and picked up the strata, the text on the cover was chewed up. I didn't hit it hard because I wanted to control the trajectory into the green. The "Spintack" cover didn't hold up that well after only 5 holes. I put it away again as I was concerned how the ball flight would be affected. Now I can't complain because these balls are going for about 12 dollars a box on the net. So if you are happy to change the ball during your round, these are a good buy. I may buy some more for winter time because they are well worth the money. Customer Service Not applicable |

This ball is not particularly long, not particularly soft, doesn't spin a whole lot, and the cover shreds like crazy. Got these on clearance for $12/dozen, but won't go out of my way to buy any more. |

nice ball for the price. 4 dozen personalized for 56 bucks. it was really long off the tee and it did check up on the greens, and it did feel soft. but off of a wedge it cuts like Gerry Cooney. but for the price it's a really nice ball. it stayed pretty straight for a 3 piece ball.

Very consistent distance and control. Stops easily on green from 60-120 yards, backs up a bit if struck well. Hops about 10 feet from ball mark when hit from over 120 yards into greens. Cover is soft and showed scuffs from club face from lofted irons. Customer Service N/A never used Similar Products Used: Pro V1, Pro V1x, Strata Tour Pro, Nike TA, other "pro" balls. |

Topflite Strata Tour Soft
Just The best ball I have ever played, Hands down! I swore by the Laddie. Decided to try this ball because it was 3 piece, I wanted more spin around the greens, and it was around $20. I was skeptical about a topflite though, The ones I used to play were rocks! Boy did I make the right choice. This ball feels wonderful of the Irons, Nice ball flight, Checks up around the greens and most importantly is a pure delightful feeling of the putter! This ball plays Premium all the way. Played today, chipped off the fringe with SW and the ball looked like it would race past the hole but it checked and stopped dead inches from the hole. I've never done that with any other ball I've Played. As far as durabilty, I've played 27 par three holes with the same ball (using wedges and short Irons)! You get some scuffing, but nothing that makes you take the ball out of play or affects putting or ball performance. Only people who are extremely picky will complain about scuffs, plus its a ball designed to spin so what do you expect. I've yet to take this ball to a regulation course and test it off my Woods but I expect it to do just fine. For under $20 you can't beat this ball, even if it was over $20 I would still play it! Give this one a try, You don't know what you are missing! The Laddie just got bumped for the Topflite Strata Tour Soft in my bag!! Customer Service Not Used Similar Products Used: Laddie |

Top-Flite Strata Tour Soft
As I can tell this is the same ball as the Top-Flite tour. It seems that since Callaway has purchased the company that they decided to give it the Strata name since it is a 3 piece ball. This ball performs well from tee to green. It is as long as some distance balls off of the driver, yet still provides excellent shot stopping spin off the short irons. I have not had any durability issues with this ball, it holds up as well as any "premium" ball. A great tour caliber ball, and at $20 a dozen is hard to beat. Customer Service Top-Flite has a neat web site, but I havent needed cust. service. Similar Products Used: Top-Flite Tour, Nike TA2, Titleist NXT Tour, Precept U-Tri, ect. |

Strata Tour Soft
I was interested that Strata had a 3 piece soft ball that was directly marketed against 2 piece balls like the Noodle, Laddie, etc. I thought that a 3 piece, soft ball in the $20.00 price range was worth checking out. Likes: I was able to drive this ball as long as or longer as any other soft ball. The feel off the driver head is excellent, soft but not spongy. I get very good loft and very straight flights. Short game control is better than soft two piece balls (like Laddie or Srixon Soft Feel), very good feel and great grip on the greens. Even lower-loft shots from my 5 iron hold the greens very well. The cover may be a bit soft, a little more prone to scuffs from hitting a cart path or the like. I have not seen any markes from my club face, so maybe I just need to stop hitting the ball into hard objects an keep it on the grass! The first thing that I noticed was the brilliant white cover, which I like (some lower cost balls have an off-white cast, which can make them a bit harder to find...). Quality over-all appears to be first rate. Customer Service It's been years since I've needed Customer Service for a golf bal... Similar Products Used: Srixon Soft Feel MaxFli Noodle Precept Laddie |
