It can be difficult to find a golf ball to fit your game — Do you want a ball that offers tour-level performance no matter the price, or are you looking for something that offers more value while still offering a performance urethane cover and soft feel around the greens?
Well if you’re looking for a best-of-both-worlds scenario, the Q-Star Tour Divide from Srixon could be the ball you’ve been searching for. It offers a three-piece urethane construction and many of the technologies of Srixon’s more premium Z-Star golf balls, and it’s only $39.99 a dozen.
Srixon Q-Star Tour Divide Golf Balls

With the golf season finally kicking off in full force in the North East I needed some golf balls for my first few rounds of the season, and being a golfer who likes to try new things for my own game and help others find value in theirs, I decided to give the Q-Star Tour Divide a shot.
It should almost go without saying but the standout feature of the Divide golf balls from Srixon is their high-contrast two-tone covers that make them easy to spot and helpful to line up when on the tee, or putting.
As a golfer who tends to struggle with alignment off the tee, I created an easy visual by placing the contrasting colors perpendicular to my target any chance I could get. This helped me quickly align my clubface with the ball and inspired extra confidence. It also works great for any golfer who likes to use a long line on their ball when putting — because what’s better than a continuous high-contrast straight line around the equator of your golf ball?
Off the tee, and with my irons the Q-Star Tour felt responsive without ever feeling too soft or clicky, and I would be willing to chalk that up to the slightly lower compression (74) than what is found in Srixon’s Z-Star XV which sits at just over 100.
But he’s where the golf ball shines — especially for the price.
Around the greens.
Thanks to a softer urethane cover than the previous generation and Spin Skin SeRM polymer (Slide-Ring-Material) the Q-Star Tour Divide spins as close to any premium ball around the greens that I have used, and quickly drops and stops on full approach shots too.
The Srixon Q-Star Tour Divide golf balls come in a variety of color options including blue/yellow, orange/yellow, and red/yellow. For those who might not be ready for the Srixon Divide look but want Q-Star Tour performance, it also comes in a more classic gloss white and yellow.
