In this blog, we compare two of TaylorMade’s most popular golf balls: the TP5 and the TP5X.
Both balls offer premium quality distance, feel and spin and feature an all-new Speed Wrapped Core, progressive 5-layer construction and groundbreaking ClearPath Alignment™ technology. Despite these similarities, the TP5 and TP5X are designed for two different types of golfers, with the main difference between the two hinging on individual playing styles and preferences.
So without further ado, let’s get into a comparison of the TP5 and TP5X, so you can make an informed decision on which one is right for your game!
