Playing golf in winter

Looking for the best winter golf balls? Our picks for 2025/26 include the Callaway Supersoft, the TaylorMade Distance+ and the Titleist AVX. Read on to find out why!

 

Why switch golf balls in winter?

Wondering why you should give up your favourite golf ball when the weather gets cold? Well, the golfers who switch balls every season tend to do so for one of two reasons:

  1. Cold weather makes your golf ball firmer. This can make things challenging if you were already using a fairly firm golf ball to begin with. The best golf balls for winter tend to be soft, low-compression golf balls.

  2. In winter, you are more likely to lose your golf balls. Depending on where you are, the green may be frozen over or muddy with rain, but it’s not ideal for play either way. You don’t want to be wasting money on premium balls when the course isn’t in premium condition.

So, with that in mind, here are our top 5 best winter golf balls:

 

Best Golf Balls For Winter

  1. Callaway Supersoft
  2. Titleist AVX
  3. TaylorMade Distance+
  4. Wilson Duo Soft
  5. Srixon Distance

1) Callaway Supersoft

In the winter, you’re looking for a golf ball that is both soft and affordable. Callaway Supersoft meets these criteria and then some.

These golf balls are reasonably priced (and they frequently go on sale) so it won’t be too much of a loss if they go missing. With a compression score of only 38, these are the some of the softest golf balls on the market and are pretty reliable in chilly conditions.

VISIBILITY BOOST: The Callaway Supersoft is also available in yellow.

 

2) Titleist AVX

If the cold weather has you packing up your Pro V1s but you are still a loyal Titleist fan, then try the Titleist AVX. This is a much softer golf ball that should still perform well even when the green is a bit frosty.

The AVX is much more than just a Pro V1 replacement. It boasts a high-gradient core for fantastic speeds and distances, with an aerodynamic dimple pattern for optimal ball flight.

3) TaylorMade Distance+

TaylorMade’s Distance+ golf balls are a reliable choice no matter the season. These balls have earned their spot on our ‘best golf balls for winter’ list by delivering on speed and flight, despite the soft feel.

The Distance+ golf ball has a compression rating of 77. While this is much firmer than a Callaway Supersoft, it’s still on the softer side in the grand scheme of things. If you usually play with a firm ball, this golf ball should serve you well in cold weather.

4) Wilson Duo Soft

The Wilson Duo Soft is an underrated golf ball that deserves more attention. Add the Duo Soft to your golf bag this winter to see what it’s capable of, even in the cold.

The Wilson Duo Soft has a high energy core, low spin, and a compression rating of 37. The dimple pattern has been carefully engineered to help you achieve a flat flight and great distance.

5) Srixon Distance

Srixon Distance golf balls are quite popular among budget-conscious golfers. They cost just £20 per box of 12 (at time of writing) and perform impressively for the price.

If you’re expecting to lose a lot of golf balls this winter, go with the Srixon Distance. It has a soft centre, but is a bit firmer around the outside. This durable ball has an ionomer cover and a 324 dimple pattern.

Golf balls are expensive, aren't they? And if you're prone to flubbing the odd shot and losing your ball, the cost of replenishing your supply after each round can really start to stack up.

Why Are Our Golf Balls So Cheap, You Ask?

There are a few reasons why we're able to sell certain golf balls at such low prices – sometimes it's because they are last year's model or a discontinued line, but it could also be that we purchased a high volume of one particular golf ball that just didn't end up selling as well as we expected. When this happens, we'll often slash the price to reduce our holdings of that golf ball. Either way, you're in for a bargain if you check out our Clearance Golf Ball range.

Our golf balls are supplied by some of the sport's top brands, including...

...and to be clear, we have the utmost respect for these companies and their brilliant golf balls, so we always try to sell them at the correct retail price. However, as stated above, we sometimes need to reduce our holdings of specific balls (because a new model is about to be released for example) in which case we will put those balls on sale for a short period.

Does This Include Premium Golf Balls?

Yes, of course! In fact, the premium balls (like your Titleist Pro V1 or your TaylorMade TP5) tend to get an update every couple of years, so we're always able to buy end-of-range balls at a lower cost and this allows us to sell them cheaper to our customers.

Once the new version of each ball is released, we'll reduce the price of the older balls even further to clear them out.

Bulk Discounts on Golf Balls

We're often asked if we can offer a little extra discount on bulk purchases, and the answer is...yes, sometimes! Obviously everyone's idea of 'bulk' is different, but we consider it to be anything higher than 24 dozen balls. So if you want to order a load of golf balls for your club / society or an upcoming event, please get in touch with us and we'll see what sort of deal we can offer you.

what are logo overrun golf balls

Logo overrun golf balls are balls that are sold at a discounted price because they have a printed logo or image on them.

This will often happen if a company accidentally orders too many logo golf balls, or if somebody cancels an order of personalised golf balls. Sometimes, logo overrun balls will be misprints, where the ball just has an ink stain rather than any specific image or message. In all cases, the ball itself is still perfectly usable.

 

Are Logo Overrun Golf Balls Tournament Legal?

Yes, logo overrun golf balls can be played in golf tournaments, games, and tours. Since these are essentially just normal balls with random images printed onto them, they are considered completely legal.

Customised golf balls of any kind, including logo golf balls, are generally welcome at tournaments. Some professional golfers even use personalised golf balls! For example, Rory Mcllroy is known for having RORS printed on his Taylormade TP5x balls.

 

What’s the Difference Between Logo Overrun Golf Balls and X-Out Golf Balls?

Unlike logo overrun golf balls, X-out golf balls are not tournament legal. X-out golf balls have defects that will likely have an impact on the ball’s performance. Because of this, they don’t conform to most tournament standards (though if you really want to use one, you can always check the rules for the event in question).

Logo overrun golf balls are much more similar to practice balls than they are to X-out golf balls. Practice golf balls are legal balls that conform to all the relevant standards, but have an aesthetic or cosmetic imperfection that means they can’t be sold for full price.

 

Logo Overrun Golf Balls: Pros & Cons

So, why do people buy logo overrun golf balls? Well, people purchase logo overrun golf balls because they are sometimes a little cheaper than blank balls. They are usually bought second-hand from sellers who have too many of these balls, so it’s possible to get a good deal.

However, in many cases, the discount you will get on overrun golf balls is too insignificant to be worth it. This is especially true when you have to take the time to find a reliable seller of overrun golf balls. If you’re buying them from a marketplace like eBay, you have to be quick enough to get the overrun balls before somebody else does. Additionally, when buying balls from random sellers you always run the risk that the balls have been used before, which can lower their quality.

You also might struggle to find the exact golf ball brand you want when shopping for logo overrun golf balls, because you have to go for whatever balls are available. Playing with golf balls that you aren’t used to can really impact your game.

If you are looking for cheaper golf balls, it might be better to look for clearance golf balls than to risk receiving used logo overrun golf balls. Plus, you can add your own logo to these high-quality balls, which results in a much more meaningful ball than buying a ball with somebody else’s branding.

 

Are Logo Overrun Golf Balls Worth It?

Though some golfers are happy to use overrun logo golf balls, they are not always worth the risk.

The main problem with logo overrun golf balls is that you have no say over the logo that you’ll receive. Most of the time, these balls are bought in bulk, and the logo will be completely random. This means that you could easily end up with a design that is embarrassing or ugly, and you’ll probably have a lot of them to get through.

This is why golfers will generally order their own logo golf balls instead of gambling on logo overrun golf balls. It’s okay to admit that one of the best parts of golf is the aesthetic of it all: crisp collared shirts, shiny golf clubs, and the sun rising over a pristine green. This visual isn’t really complete without a new, fresh golf ball. Most golfers wouldn’t want to ruin this with a misprinted ball, particularly when it may have been used before.

With normal logo golf balls, you get to add a logo of your choice to the golf ball. This could be a purely cosmetic design, or it could be the logo of your own business. This is a fun way to show off and even get a bit of advertising out there while you play.

 

Logo Golf Balls

We can print logos on the majority of the golf balls on our website, meaning you won’t have to settle for a ball that isn’t your usual or worry about the ball arriving pre-used. You can enjoy a high-quality ball with a clear logo of your choice.
