 SpeedMAX cut-away shows the crucial mantle and core
|
Maxfli reckons it has uncovered the secrets of legal extra distance for its balls, combined with controlling spin and encouraging feel.
The Basingstoke-based company believes its three-piece SpeedMAX ball will help players of all abilities – even those with below-average swing speeds - to reap outstanding benefits in yardage while creating more control with their short irons.
Maxfli says its ball (with a recommended price of £22 per dozen) incorporates ‘four critical elements that work together to fuel exceptional performance’ - cover, SpeedMantle, core and 442-dimple pattern'.
Crucial is a thin layer (the mantle) sandwiched between the cover and the core made of HPF 1000, a material created by DuPont that is soft yet resilient, and which Maxfli claims, increases the speed at which the ball leaves the clubface, though within the legal R&A limits.
"The SpeedMantle also helps to minimise spin off the driver while optimizing distance and contributing to soft feel and increased backspin with the short irons.
