Titleist Tour Soft vs DT Trusoft

[jswjr]

Been playing the TruSoft the past 6 months and have fairly satisfied with them but have been wondering about the Tour Soft.

From those of you that have played both of these balls are there any advantages to playing the more expensive ($10.00 more) Tour Soft ?

I dont play either, but I can say that i hear a lot of players who love the TruSoft

I found the tour soft to be firmer and a bit over priced.

tour soft is expensive for a two piece ball

Played both. Higher swing speed above 90-95, TourSoft is better, lower swing speed below 95 or 90, you will be able to elevate and compress the TruSoft easier. I like the TourSoft, as for my SS (~100MPH), the TruSoft is too mushy (play it though when temps are in high 40's low 50's). Favorite however is the '19 ProV1 in Yellow.

I've played the DT TruSoft a little when it first came out and played its predecessor DT Solo quite a bit back in the day.

 

Tried a sleeve of the Tour Soft and after 2-1/2 rounds gave away the two remaining balls. Something was just off about the performance, didn't seem quite a long as normal and it certainly did not hold greens any better than DT Solo (or other low compression cheap balls). What a ripoff at the price point, same or slightly worse performance than the $25 ball except they charge $35 for it.

The Wilson 50 Elite and Tru Soft were my favorite balls over the last 3 or 4 years. Love the Tru Soft yellow color as well.

 

I only used the Tour Soft for one round and did not care for it.

Sounds like your reaction was same as mine. Something just not statisfying at all about the Tour Soft. Rare for me to actively dislike a golf ball immediately like that.

I preferred the TruSoft to NXT line as well. Before they switched that to Tour Soft

Have played both extensively, as well as the DT solo predecessor to trusoft and nxt tour precursor to tour soft.

Tour soft was longer for me and felt great. Real improvement over the nxt-s line it replaced. Nxt-s stunk for me, nxt was long but otherwise just ok.

Trusoft was not as long as dt solo for me, but it was close. It does feel a little softer. I didn't find it held greens as well as solo or tour soft.

Tour soft > solo > nxt > trusoft.

Trusoft really overpriced bc it's titleist and has the word soft worked in.

Tour soft is a competitor to the mid range srixon q-star and tm project a. In that range, I like it the best of the three.

Helps that I hit some absolute bombs with it. Who knows.

The Tour Soft is $5 off most places now. It is RBG top selling ball!

After head to had comparisons the last 2 weeks between the superhot and the dt soft the dt soft is the winner. It performed as well or better than the other surlyns I have tried including the new e12 soft, e6 and q star. I intend to use it for awhile to see if I can optimize my game with it. I especially like the feel off the driver. For the money it is titleist's best value.
