If we’re talking about premium golf balls, the truth is that Titleist TruFeel is by no means comparable with the company’s flagship, the Pro V1 respectively. And no, the TruFeel is not garnering all the headlines like the Pro V1, and that’s due to the fact that the latter built its fame on its success on the world’s professional tours. However, the new TruFeel plays in a completely different league, being a 2-piece low compression ball aimed at “normal people”, i.e. moderate swing golfers looking for quality gear.

However, since this is a Titleist product, it shares some of the “pedigree” with the Pro V1 legend, and we’re talking about an important element here: both the Pro V1 and the TruFeel 2020 are developed with comprehensive input from golfers that played the respective prototype/finished product. Retailing for $22.29 per dozen, the 2020 TruFeel golf ball from Titleist is available in three color ways: classic white, red and yellow, and as you can see from the price-tag, this baby is engineered to make for the budget friendly option, i.e. a ball for the masses. It’s worth mentioning that the TruFeel replaces the DT TruSoft, which made for yet another budget friendly option from Titleist aimed at players looking for more distance, which obviously means that the TruSoft is everything about soft feel and improved distance, as expected from a “game improvement” golf ball.

The philosophy behind the TruFeel Soft is that the vast majority of players are not Tour pros, and they’re looking for superb value and serious performance in their gear, as well as improved distance, because, after all, this is the current year, and we’re talking here about 2020 obviously. The new Titleist TruFeel is designed to look and feel great, while playing the “best bang for the buck” game like a true pro. The ball is manufactured in the United States, at Titleist’s Ball Plant 2 in North Dartmouth, Massachusetts, and even if we’re talking about a “value” product, a lot of time was “spent” in developing the TruFeel, with chemical, materials and aerodynamic prototyping, in order to make sure that once a customer buys it, they are getting the best, as expected from a Titleist product.

To give you a little food for thought, let’s explore the main technologies incorporated in the new TruFeel golf ball. Let’s start with the core, because the core is key in a golf ball; Titleist used their patented TruTouch Core in the TruFeel ball, and that’s pretty interesting, to say the least. Even if the TruFeel is a budget golf ball, the TruTouch Core has been developed by the company’s engineers from scratch, i.e. this is a brand new low compression, faster than ever core, which is built to improve distance. Speaking of low compression core, the TruFeel shares the same concept as its premium-brethren AVX, but it’s way more affordable and comes in a simpler (and cheaper) 2-piece construction. Moving along, the TruFeel comes with the all-new patented TruFlex cover, which has been engineered to deliver amazing soft feel around the green, as well as improved control and better spin. Considering the fact that Titleist is the number one ball manufacturer in golf, the company is also a global leader in polymer technology. Just like the TruTouch core, the TruFlex cover was also built from scratch, being brand new, and this gives the new ball a technological edge compared to its direct “budget friendly 2-piece” competitors.

Finally, we have the TruFit Aerodynamics technology, which means the new TruFeel golf balls are designed with a brand new asymmetrically optimized pattern, a tech innovation of sorts that confers the ball enhanced long game distance. Think along the lines of how a plane wing produces lift, and you’ll understand the importance of the new dimple pattern in the TruFeel golf ball, which helps it keep its stability in the wind and carry further compared to previous generations. Let’s close with the immortal words of Michael Mahoney, the Vice President of Titleist Golf Ball Marketing:

“In this category, we continue to see competitive products that sacrifice distance or short-game spin in order to gain a softer feel. TruFeel strikes the perfect balance of extremely soft feel and all-around performance. Our engineers have advanced TruFeel’s low compression technology to add speed and distance in the long game while preserving the feel that golfers tell us they love – and the playability on every shot that makes this ball a Titleist.”
