Golfers, prepare yourselves: Wilson has teed up two fresh contenders in the golf ball arena, and they’re gunning for the top spot.
Taking centre stage is the new Wilson Triad golf ball, touted as the world’s most balanced sphere—with no pesky “heavy” spots to ruin that precious roll.
Right alongside it, Wilson introduces the revamped DUO Soft, proudly clinging to its throne as the softest golf ball on the planet.
Here’s why these additions might have you reaching into your wallet faster than you can yell “Fore!”
Wilson Triad: Smooth Roll, Big Gains
This updated Wilson Triad golf ball showcases something called Tri-Balanced Construction, which meticulously balances density across all three layers.
Translation: You’ll enjoy pinpoint accuracy from tee to green. Wilson reduced the compression to a golfer-friendly 80, plus gave the mantle and core a facelift.
The high moment of inertia design boosts ball speed and reduces driver spin, so if you’ve been spraying shots off the fairway, Triad might help you keep things straight.
When you switch to approach mode, a thin urethane cover increases friction on iron and wedge shots.
According to Frank Simonutti, Wilson Golf’s Global Director of Golf Ball Innovation, you can expect extra distance off the driver and higher spin with your irons—an intriguing combo for those looking to nail more greens.
He even calls Triad “the only perfectly balanced golf ball on the market,” which, in theory, means a purer roll on putts and more confidence when the match is on the line.
The new Triad hits shelves this month in white or yellow, priced at £40/€45 (Ireland) per dozen.
DUO Soft: Cloud-like feel, Distance to Spare
If you still crave that supremely soft sensation, DUO Soft remains your go-to. It’s a two-piece surlyn creation that Wilson engineered to fly straighter and land farther without sacrificing that plush feel.
A high-energy core powers distance off the tee, while a compression rating of 37 keeps it gentle on the hands.
In testing, this design logged impressive yardages—plus, it adds a little forgiveness for any awkward swings that plague your weekend rounds.
The best part? The DUO Soft now comes in five vibrant colours—red, orange, green, yellow, and pink—making it easier than ever to spot your ball in the thick stuff.
A dozen will set you back £27/€30 (Ireland), so it won’t break the bank if you’re prone to the occasional water ball.
Final Thoughts
Whether it’s the pinpoint precision of the Wilson Triad golf ball or the pillowy sensation of DUO Soft, Wilson is giving golfers of all skill levels something to celebrate.
Between balanced performance, distance gains, and that soft feel everyone loves, these new releases just might be worth a test run on your next weekend outing.
