The Srixon Q-Star Tour is a low compression golf ball with a urethane cover, designed for golfers with moderate swing speeds who want the performance and feel of a tour ball.
Srixon describes the Q-Star Tour as engineered with tour ball technology for distance, accuracy, green-side spin and durability. It is designed to offer the soft feel and distance of a low compression golf ball, along with spin and control around the greens.
It is aimed at mid-handicap golfers and at golfers with moderate and slower swing speeds, who can benefit from the easy compression and added spin around the greens. Golfers with higher swing speeds may also consider it in harsher golfing conditions. For other options, see our golf ball guide.

Srixon Q-Star Tour Construction and Features
Feel and Compression
This ball is engineered to be a low compression ball, designed to give players with slower and more moderate swing speeds more distance throughout their bag.
Cover and Core
The Q-Star Tour comes with the same urethane cover as the Z-Star and Z-Star XV. The core is a rubber core that compresses at lower speeds.
Compressing the golf ball is the way the club interacts with the golf ball and it causes the ball to "spring" off of the face. This results in higher ball speeds for all clubs.
What the Maker Says
Srixon designs the ball to help get it in the air and to stop quickly, with the urethane cover adding spin and grip on shorter irons and wedge shots.
