Choosing golf balls is less about finding one universal answer than matching the ball to your round: do you want a distance-oriented used option, a larger supply, a new urethane ball with control language, or a mixed matte finish? The four choices here separate those priorities clearly, but their condition and listed prices also differ. This guide narrows the decision without treating a numeric spec as an automatic performance ranking.
Quick take
Four routes emerge. Two choices are used or recycled, one is Good - Refurbished, and one is new. The pack presentations vary from white to mixed colors, while the descriptions emphasize distance, control, soft feel, greenside characteristics, or visibility. Start with condition, then use price and the specific playing attribute as tie-breakers.
- Price-first: TaylorMade TP5 X
- Quantity-first: Callaway Supersoft Matte Mix
- New-ball control: TaylorMade Tour Response
- Matte mixed finish: Srixon Q Star Tour Matte Mix
Listed-price comparison
The gap between the lowest and highest listed prices is $52.40. That is a meaningful spread, but price alone does not establish which ball fits your game; the condition, format, and stated attributes matter just as much.
| Product | Listed price | Price bar |
|---|---|---|
| TaylorMade TP5 X Used Golf Balls | USD 13.59 | |
| Callaway Supersoft Matte Mix Used Golf Balls | USD 58.65 | |
| TaylorMade Tour Response Golf Balls | USD 65.99 | |
| Srixon Q Star Tour Matte Mix Golf Balls | USD 16.99 |
Decision matrix
- Price first: TaylorMade TP5 X occupies the lowest-priced row in the comparison.
- Quantity first: Callaway Supersoft's 72 Count title phrase makes its intended pack scale clear.
- Control brief: TaylorMade Tour Response combines urethane material, 3-piece construction, and an explicit Control feature.
- Visibility: Srixon Q Star Tour's description connects its mixed matte finish with visibility.
Use those as filters rather than treating construction numbers as proof that one option is automatically superior. The useful question is which listed characteristic matches your priority.
Product notes
TaylorMade TP5 X Used Golf Balls
White color and an explicit Distance feature make the TaylorMade TP5 X a straightforward pick for a shopper who wants a used ball aimed at a distance-oriented brief. The title's Near Mint Condition and AAAA Quality wording also gives the choice a defined condition label. Its limitation is the used condition itself, so it is not the match for someone who has made new condition non-negotiable. The 12-ball quantity is a compact format, which may be less suitable when you want to stock up in one purchase. Choose this one when a white distance focus leads the decision.
Callaway Supersoft Matte Mix Used Golf Balls
The Callaway Supersoft Matte Mix earns consideration for its explicit Distance feature and color mix. The matte presentation adds variety to the appearance, which may appeal if a single-color set is not your priority. Its main limitation is the Used condition, and the mixed colors are less appropriate for a shopper who wants a uniform white look. The $58.65 listed price is near the top of this comparison, despite its distance emphasis. Choose it when mixed-color presentation and a distance-oriented description matter more than new condition.
TaylorMade Tour Response Golf Balls
For a shopper who wants new golf balls, TaylorMade Tour Response combines a Tour Preferred ball type with 3-piece construction, urethane material, and an explicit Control feature. The description further identifies soft feel, fast ball speed, greenside control, and consistent flight, so there is a clear control-focused reason to choose it. The limitation is its $65.99 listed price, the highest in this group. Pick this one when a new urethane ball with control language fits the brief; a used or refurbished choice makes more sense when the listed-price spread is the deciding constraint.
Srixon Q Star Tour Matte Mix Golf Balls
The mixed matte finish on Srixon Q Star Tour Matte Mix is described as adding visibility. The description also identifies a high-resilience core, an ultra-thin urethane cover, soft feel, distance, and greenside spin, giving shoppers several concrete attributes to weigh. Its limitation is the Good - Refurbished condition: the balls may show scuffs, blemishes, discoloration, smudged print, player markings, or logos. Choose it when matte appearance and the listed feel-and-spin profile are appealing; new condition points to TaylorMade Tour Response instead.
Final recommendation by use case
- Lowest-price use case: TaylorMade TP5 X.
- Larger-pack use case: Callaway Supersoft Matte Mix.
- New-ball use case: TaylorMade Tour Response.
- Good - Refurbished use case: Srixon Q Star Tour Matte Mix.
The right choice comes down to which label matters most to you. Let condition set the first boundary, then use the listed price and the product's stated playing attributes to make the final call.
