For him 2025 golf ball testpresented by UNRL44 models were tested at three driver, 7-iron and wedge speeds, including a 35-yard short game test and a wet vs. dry wedge comparison. Each ball was purchased retail and hit by a robot to ensure unbiased and repeatable results.
Srixon entered the test with one of the deepest urethane formations in the field and the data highlighted clear performance differences between Mr. Star, Z-STAR XV AND Q-STAR families. Here’s how each Srixon ball performed and which model is most likely to suit your game.
Srixon Z-STAR DIAMOND (The best Srixon ball for spin and stopping power)
During the 2025 ball test, MR STAR DIAMOND appeared consistently wherever spin and control mattered. With high swing speed with the driver, it was one of the highest spinning balls in the test. With the irons, it once again sat at the top of the high and medium speed spin charts.
DIAMOND it also produced a higher flight window than many competitors, especially on the greens. In the 35-yard wedge test, it delivered wedge spin in the top layer, easily over 5,900 rpm.
In the wet versus dry test, Mr. Star family showed strong spin retention in wet conditions, meaning less loss of control when conditions get wet.
Play MR STAR DIAMOND whether
- You want one of the Srixon balls with the highest spin from the tee to the green.
- You rely on height and spin to keep the greens firm.
jump MR STAR DIAMOND whether
- You are already creating a lot of driver spins.
- You prefer a lower, flatter trajectory.
Srixon Z-STAR XV
In the 2025 data, Z-STAR XV is Srixon’s standout distance option that still maintains tournament-level spin characteristics. At average driving speed, he sat near the top of the total distance chart. At high speed, it showed up again in the distance chat while still providing a higher rail flight profile.
Test notes are paired repeatedly Z-STAR XV with DIAMOND like balls providing excellent distance with higher spin speeds from the driver at medium to high speeds.
Play Z-STAR XV whether
- You want strong distance with a workable, higher flight profile.
- You play at medium or high speed and want a lively trajectory to the green.
jump Z-STAR XV whether
- You are chasing the lowest possible driver spin.
- Your iron flight is already very high.
Srixon Z-STAR AND Z-STAR DIVISION
standard Mr. Star and two tons Z-STAR DIVISION share similar performance characteristics in the 2025 test, although DIVIDE uses a different dimple pattern to join the lid halves.
Remove the driver at high speed, Mr. Star it was among the most rotated balls in the field. At lower swing speeds with irons, Mr. Star, Z-STAR DIVISION AND DIAMOND formed a group with the lowest flight balls tested, even when distance was not taken into account.
This makes them attractive to players who prefer a more penetrating, traditional tour trajectory rather than a high-flying one.
Play Mr. Star OR Z-STAR DIVISION whether
- You want a traditional tournament ball with higher spin and a more controlled iron flight.
- You prefer a trajectory that you can shape and manage.
jump Mr. Star OR Z-STAR DIVISION whether
- You struggle to launch the bars high enough.
- You’re looking for a flatter driver profile and distance.
Srixon Q-STAR ULTISPEED
Q-STAR ULTISPEED is Srixon’s ionomer offering that performed well in the distance-focused portions of the test. With high swing speed with the driver, it was the longest ionomer ball tested. With low swing speed with the driver, it again appeared near the top of the distance chart.
With mid-speed irons, it was highlighted as a low-flying, good-distance option. The combination is low revs, which explains the increased clearance, but also reduces stopping power.
As with all the ionomer balls tested, greenside spin lagged behind the urethane.
Play Q-STAR ULTISPEED whether
- You want a lower priced Srixon ball that emphasizes distance.
- You are happy with the low roll and a lower flight window.
jump Q-STAR ULTISPEED whether
- You need high spin or quick stopping power around the greens.
- You prefer a higher approach trajectory.
Srixon FEEL SOFT
As one of the softest balls tested, SOFT FEELING it behaved like a typical low-compression distance ball. At medium spin rates with the driver, it produced some of the lowest spin rates on test.
With medium speed rails, SOFT FEELING again leaned towards low spin and low flight. Although it did not sit at the absolute bottom of the height chart, it was consistent with the expected behavior of the soft ionomer models on test and expected to have a lower trajectory and reduced stopping power.
In the wedge test, SOFT FEELING performed like other ionomer models, leaving urethane behind significantly in the green rotation.
Play SOFT FEELING whether
- You want a very soft, low compression Srixon ball.
- You are looking to reduce driver spin.
jump SOFT FEELING whether
- You rely on your iron and wedge spin to hold the greens.
- You already hit a low ball and need help getting it up.
TOUR Srixon Q-STAR
Q-STAR TOUR it shows up in the 2025 test as a softer urethane ball that still offers some spin. In the mid-speed iron spin results, it’s described as one of the closest things to a softball that still generates useful spin, though it falls into the mid-spin range.
This puts it between Srixon’s soft ionomer offerings and the stronger, higher-torque Z-STAR line. It’s suitable for players who want the feel of urethane without going as far as durability or tournament-level spin.
Play Q-STAR TOUR whether
- You want softer feel with more spin than soft ionomer balls provide.
- You like the performance of urethane, but you don’t need maximum torque.
jump Q-STAR TOUR whether
- You want Srixon’s higher torque options (MR STAR DIAMOND, Z-STAR).
- You prefer a very strong touring feel.
