Q-STAR (Question Everything) While the evolution of golf ball technology has provided a variety of options for players from a novice to a tour level, finding a ball that's just right can be challenging. The Srixon Q-STAR is an all ability ball, designed with STAR Performance in mind (Spin, Trajectory, Acceleration, and Responsiveness), enhancing total playability on every shot and increasing your ability to shoot lower scores.

This ball is for mid to high handicappers and responds most effectively to driver swing speeds greater than 80 mph. The large core enables greater distance and at the same time its soft feel ensures excellent spin and control on approach shots. Additionally, the visual performance of Pure White and Tour Yellow enables a greater visibility.


  • Highly resilient and soft RABALON® HR+ and PANA-TETRA® blended thin cover
  • Proprietary, large, highly resilient, and soft Energetic Gradient Growth™ core
  • Strong and high trajectory 324-dimple pattern with advanced aerodynamics

At $24.99, seems like a lot of technology for the price.

Also comes in Tour Yellow....nice !!!

Love me some yellow balls.

Question is, has anybody played it yet?

Seeing how it was just released today and, as I understand it, only at Golf Galaxy, I don't think anyone's had a chance.  But for $25/dozen I'm definitely going to give it a shot.

Pretty sure they gave out some demo ones already and I have seen a few reviews on other sites.

I am really excited to try these though. Golfgalaxy.com has free shipping on them right now.

Played this ball earlier this week and let me just say, WOW!!

Much softer than the Bridgestone E5, more spin and just as much distance.

Srixon has set a new standard at this price point, incredible the performance this ball delivers and then you see the ;rice and the fact its a two peice golf ball.

Unreal how good these things are.

I am anxious to try as well.  Picked up a Z star sleeve l at the Golf Galaxy while checking out and was floored at the 12.99 a sleeve price.  Here's hopping the Q star is just as nice with a little pocket relief.

I recently started playing the Q-Star and theyre awesome.  Good distance and straighter ball flight but still plenty of spin to stop the ball on the green and a nice, soft feel off the wedges and putter.

Was all set to buy a dozen of the tour yellow Q star's at Dicks today and they only had white.  Not a huge setback as my local shop has the yellows.  But nonetheless strange that Dicks wouldn't sell the tour yellow version.

The Dick's where I got mine didn't even have them on the shelf. I asked if they had some and the guy went in the back and bought out a few dozen. I wanted white but I can only assume they didn't have yellow, he didn't ask and all he bought out from the back was white.

I just want to say I love these.

I love the feel more than anything, amazing feel and spin for a 2 peice ball.

I would imagine a lot of golfers will be suprised when they try these, for $25 bucks, its the best ball on the shelves right now.

100% satisfied and sold of these balls, will be in the bag for quite awhile.

Thanks Srixon.

The search is over. The Q-Star is staying in the bag. Over the last few months I've played a lot of different balls trying to find the one that I like in every aspect of my game. The Q-Star fits perfect. Here's what I've been playing.

Nike 20XI-X

Nike One Tour D

Nike One Vapor Speed

Titleist NTX Tour

Titleist Pro V1

Bridgestone E6

Bridgeston B300 RXS

Taylormade Penta TP

For one reason or another none of the above did everything, driver distance, iron feel, spin around the greens and putter feel. I could get 3 of 4 out of the above, but the Q-Star fits all 4.

Very close. the Q is a bit longer. Feel off the irons is equal. RXS spins just a bit more. The putter feel I like the Q-Star better, the RXS seems very soft a takes a good hit to get it going, where the Q has a soft feel but the ball comes off the putter rolling fast.

Sp the difference is the Q is a little longer?  How about driver spin?

      Grip Issue?!?

      By carpediem4300 ·

      Yeah I really want to avoid the rabbit hole if I can  🤣 I'm not sure I'm going to make my lesson Tuesday though, whatever I did to the back of my hand at the range is getting worse, but that's a whole separate issue 🤣

      Rory becomes the second person after Tiger to pass $100 million in earnings on the PGA Tour. Earnings always favor recency since purses go up. Scottie's first win was in 2022, but he's already at $75 million with "only" 18 professional wins. Rory McIlroy $100 million career earnings PGA Tour, joins Tiger Woods Until Sunday, Tiger Woods was the only golfer in the history of the PGA Tour to surpass $100 million in career earnings. Now he has company.

      Grip Issue?!?

      By GolfLug ·

      Can't tell 100% from your videos but if your right hand is too far underneath the grip the tendency for most folks is to roll it close through impact little too early. Try putting your right (trail) hand more on the side of the grip instead of underneath at address for a simple enough adjustment. This might help. In general match-ups matter greatly and you might have to make corresponding changes. I wouldn't even begin to suggest whatever those might be. Best to get a good pro to help. Self-diagnosis/experimentation can work for some but for most it's a rabbit hole.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 ·

      Been away for a few weeks. A bit of tumultuous times at work. We had about 4% our exempt workforce laid off. My project from hell won’t let up. Just been burnt out the past couple of weeks and the cold crappy weather. Back at it now. Backswing drill - working on swing path feels. Right wrist bent, more feeling the palm facing away from me. Feeling the hands stay in front of me more.  Downswing- Feel like I make a big long arc with the butt end of the club to my right pocket. More out away from my shoulder. Combining this with recentering for timing. When I make a 60% swing, the clubhead feels like it’s arching from the inside and lower way more.

      Its tough, "greatest" is subjective, measured in many different ways, while goals and assists are simple numbers.  And even simple numbers aren't always directly comparable across eras, as you mention.  A truly amazing coincidence, if Ovi scores 2 goals in the next 2 games, he'll have exactly the same number as Gretzky (894), in exactly the same number of games (1487).
