Short version: the Titleist Tour Soft suits mid-speed golfers who want Titleist feel and decent short-game control without urethane prices. [1] Tour Soft replaced both the NXT Tour and NXT Tour S in 2018 with Titleist's largest core at the time (1.60 in). The 2026 version gets a new 386-dimple design and a new cover formula. [3]
Who it fits
Good for: mid-speed golfers who want Titleist feel and decent short-game control without urethane prices.
