With hundreds of golf balls on the market, picking the right one can feel impossible. You play, you love the game, and you know you’re not chasing a tour card. But you also don’t want to waste your money on something that doesn’t perform.

We analyzed the entire MyGolfSpy Ball Test results to identify golf balls that deliver the right blend of distance, spin, feel and consistency for average golfers. Here are five to start with.

Titleist Pro V1

The Pro V1 remains the ball by which all others are measured. Across all swing speeds in the 2025 Ball Test, it showed consistent distance off the tee, predictable iron spin and one of the most stable flights of any model tested.

For the average golfer, that means dependable performance round after round. It’s not the cheapest option but its combination of mid-launch, mid-spin and exceptional consistency makes it the industry standard. If you ever wondered what a truly balanced golf ball feels like, start here.

Maxfli Tour

Once again, Maxfli proved it belongs in the same conversation as the big names. The 2025 golf ball test called the Maxfli Tour one of the best-performing value urethane balls we’ve tested.

At high swing speeds, the Tour produced one of the highest iron flights in the test, while its firmer sibling, the Tour X, led the way in raw driver speed. For the average-swing golfer, the standard Tour version lands in that ideal window of mid-launch, mid-spin and consistent control.

Kirkland Performance+ v3.5

The Kirkland Performance+ v3.5 was one of the biggest surprises of the 2025 test. It’s “an entirely different ball” from the previous model and “the best three-piece model we’ve seen from Costco.”

The new version fixed the excessive spin issues of the older Kirkland models, landing squarely in the middle of the driver spin table and offering a higher flight profile off the tee. Around the green, it didn’t match the tour-level spin of the top urethane balls. For the price, it’s hard to beat the performance the Kirkland Performance+ v3.5 had this year.

TaylorMade Tour Response

TaylorMade’s Tour Response earned its spot as one of the lowest-spinning urethane balls in the 2025 MyGolfSpy test. At mid-swing speeds, it launched on the lower side off the driver but made up for it with impressive iron speed.

Across categories, the data shows that this ball is built for easy speed, straighter flight and a soft, playable feel.

Bonus pick: Wilson Triad

If you’re after a softer urethane ball that still feels stable off the face, the Wilson Triad deserves a look. In the 2025 MyGolfSpy test, it wasn’t a chart-topper for distance but it did land right in the middle of the pack across nearly every category.

At mid-swing speeds, Triad showed slightly lower flight and relied more on bounce and roll for total distance while maintaining a softer feel and steady performance from tee to green. For golfers who prefer something that feels easy off the clubface and keeps dispersion tight, Triad quietly checks a lot of boxes.

Final thoughts

If you fall somewhere in the middle, not a beginner, not a Tour-level player, these golf balls are a good place to start. Each one performed well across multiple categories in the 2025 MyGolfSpy Ball Test, offering a dependable mix of distance, spin and control for the everyday golfer.
