Callaway Golf Supersoft 2021 Golf Balls

You can't really pay any attention to manufacturer's claims when it comes to golf balls. They all say they're faster, longer, and have great greenside control. I'm 47 and a 4 Handicap at the moment, playing from the regular men's tees. My driver swing speed is around 92-95 mph, creeping down to the high 80s when the back is acting up. In other words, exactly at the average male swing speed with driver. This usually means roughly 205-215 carry with a decent strike, and totals that range widely from 210 to 245. At this speed and below, golf balls go pretty much the same distance with the driver. The only distance gains I've had in golf (or seen anyone else have) have been through improving technique. Unless you're playing a 15-year old driver. In which case you should really get one of these new drivers, because they are amazing. Low-compression surlyn golf balls like the Supersoft spin less and they go a little straighter and carry further with IRONS. Again: at 93 mph and down, all golf balls go pretty much the same distance with driver. Given the standard deviation in most tests - it's a wash. You will not see a benefit from a firm, fast ball until you're pushing 100 mph and up. The ball speed might be slightly higher for us with firmer balls, but at 90 mph, that TP5x is not carrying further off the tee. What it WILL do is come up 5-7 yards short with your irons. But with driver - all the same. All the time in reviews I see people writing, "I picked up 10-20 yards when I switched to such-and-such ball!" No. They did not. These people are either lying, or delusional, or have highly selective memories. Basically, the fast swinger has a conundrum: he (or she - looking at you, Jessica Korda) wants a ball that spins super low with driver, then spins a reasonable amount with mid-irons without flying too high, and is SUPER spinny around the greens. This means a three, four, or five-piece ball that's expensive and difficult to engineer and manufacture, and one with an expensive cast urethane cover. Fortunately for them, many of these people are pros and don't have to pay for golf balls. All the SLOW swinger needs, on the other hand, is a ball that is low-spinning and high flying on pretty much every shot. We want low spin with driver for carry and roll. We want low spin with irons to get more carry. Also, the average slicer (we'll call it a fade) is already ADDING too much spin to their iron shots, making them go offline and end up short. And around the greens? Nope, we really don't need spin there either. We need to be bumping and running and getting the ball close by controlling trajectory. And stop hitting flop shots from three feet off the green and trying to carry everything right to the flag. For the love of God, I beg you, sell that 60º wedge and learn to use a pitching wedge and a putter around the greens. And the good news is that such a ball is not only cheap to design and produce, it's also more consistent from ball to ball. I've played the Supersoft for about a year, and I know what it's going to do. No surprises. This new ball feels the same and the performance is the same through the bag. And it feels really good. I'll play a Prov1 or a TP5 from time to time, and they feel just fine. But the "X" tour balls feel like rocks to me. Unless I hit it in the middle. Every ball is soft when you hit the middle. I'd like to dispel another common myth that gets passed around. Ionomer/Surlyn balls are NOT more durable than urethane balls. The ionomer used for golf ball covers is hard. When it gets scuffed, it gets scuffed badly. And it stays scuffed. Because urethane is softer and more resilient, it absorbs a lot of the impact from trees, wedges with new grooves, and even cart paths. I've had urethane balls that hit a cart path HARD and I could barely tell where it had hit. But then they really ought to be durable for $48 a dozen. So in a nutshell, the new Supersoft feels great, does what it's supposed to do, and it's cheap. And I think the new logo/alignment graphic looks pretty cool.

These Callaway Supersoft Golf Balls are a fantastic choice. The green color makes them easy to spot on the course, and they really do have a soft feel that helps with control. They fly straight, give a nice distance, and are perfect for casual rounds or more serious play. For the quality, the price is excellent, and the durability means they last longer than some other brands I’ve tried. A great value for golfers of all levels!

Social Golfer Review.... if one can call it that I go to couple of ladies golf night at our club... I always use to bring a couple of golf balls because no matter how it hit- far or near, after a couple of drinks... it's really hard to find your ball. This ball I say is pretty good in quality. I like the texture, it is not the usual smooth and shiny. Performance wise, it hits pretty well... for an amateur like me - pretty good distance with my driver. And the most important for me, it's a lot easier to find... no more wasting your time trying to find where your ball went Love the color and the texture of the red.

Well, first of all these golf balls definitely feel different upon first touch than your average ball. Instead of the usual smooth polished feel of most golf balls (which range from polished rock to smooth dimpled perfection), these feel stickier in the hand (almost rubbery making you try to squeeze them but you can't) and they kind of reminded me a bit of the way basketballs or footballs feel when they stay on your finger tips for a while during dribbling or throwing. It's a phantom feeling though as they're not really rubber or really sticky but this is what makes them IMO great for faster greens since they don't roll like rock style cheap balls. The biggest con is that they pick up a lot of dirt/grass which is impossible to rub off with your fingers before putting. The dirt sticks to them and since the balls are semi sticky feeling, you can't get the dirt off via fingers and thumb like you can regular balls. This is especially frustrating since so many courses have temporarily stopped having ball washers at the tee boxes during Covid times so you can't clean them properly which can indeed effect putts if there's enough dirt on them. The lime green is VERY easy to spot on fairways and deader grass, but pretty hard to find in the weedy roughs. I spotted mine the other day in the thick and in turning to grab a club lost it again that quick eventually re-finding it but that kind of thing can get the nerves pumping for a tricky shot. They hit very well from almost any lie though when struck properly. They definitely live up to the straight and long promise (especially when sitting on a tee or middle of the fairway.., and again when struck properly). I put them away after a so-so first time using them, but after playing a course with super fast greens I gave them another chance hoping the matte finish would help stop putts from rolling way past the hole. The definitely did help in that (maybe it was a mental thing) and now I consider these balls one of my go-to balls. I have to say that while I hit some very nice drives and iron shots, I putted pretty poorly with them first time around but in time they really do putt smoothly. I'd definitely get them again (they just look too cool not to) and the lime green (and the red and hot pink) color is perfect. Definitely a ball that will take a bit of getting used to, but I can imagine playing very well with them once that happens.

Die Callaway Supersoft Golfbälle haben mich wirklich überzeugt! Sie fühlen sich extrem weich an und bieten ein großartiges Feedback beim Chippen und Putten. Besonders beeindruckt hat mich der sehr gute Spin im kurzen Spiel, der es mir ermöglicht, den Ball präzise zu kontrollieren. Auch bei den Abschlägen liefern die Bälle eine tolle Länge, die für mich absolut ausreichend ist. Insgesamt bin ich mit der Kombination aus Weichheit, Kontrolle und Distanz sehr zufrieden. Eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die ein weiches Spielgefühl und viel Kontrolle suchen!

Der Ball ist gut zu spielen. Weiches Gefühl und die Grüns und gute Flugeigenschaften.

Wonderful quality shame they all went in the pond

Ball Is superb and soft with distance.Will buy more when there is promotion

As a beginner lady golfer, I’m loving these Callaway Supersoft balls! Soft feel: They have a nice, smooth feel off the club—perfect for building confidence as I learn the game. Easy to spot: The bright pink color makes my ball easy to identify on the course, especially when playing with men who all use white balls. No more guessing whose is whose! Beginner-friendly: The performance is solid, and they feel very forgiving on off-center hits. Great value: At this price point, they’re a great option for beginners—especially since I tend to “donate” a ball or two to the water hazards during a round. Bottom Line: These balls offer a soft feel, great visibility, and solid performance for beginner and casual golfers. Stylish, functional, and forgiving—everything I need in a golf ball!
