What we say...
The 2022 iteration of Titleist’s popular club golfer Velocity ball targets pure speed for more distance.
The new Titleist Velocity golf ball is the best performing yet – making it one of the best golf balls available. Longer driver and iron distance couple with extremely low long game spin, a high flight on all shots and playable greenside feel. And it costs just £28 per dozen.
The 2022 model of the much-loved ball sees a higher compression core and a reformulated cover with every ball manufactured by Titleist at their own Ball Plant 2 in Massachusetts to ensure consistent performance and quality.
RELATED: Which Titleist ball is right for you?
350 octahedral dimples are spherically-tiled around the golf ball to help promote the higher and more consistent flight.
Following feedback from golfers Titleist have also introduced a new colour. Matte blue joins the traditional white and the highly visible matte orange and matte green options.
Overall, the Velocity brings all of the manufacturing excellence you’d expect from Titleist in a package that is ideal for mid-higher handicappers.

What Titleist say about the Velocity golf ball
Fredrick Waddell, Titleist’s director of golf ball product management
“This golf ball is fun for our team. We‘re designing for a golfer looking for distance, and that allows us to be singularly focused on speed and overall distance through the bag.
“We were able to achieve the performance goals of longer driver and iron distance while maintaining its high flight and greenside playability through new and reformulated core and cover technology.”

Mike Madson, Titleist’s director of aerodynamics and research engineering
“We take the same principles and fundamentals that we utilise in the Pro V1 and AVX and apply them to Velocity. It is a matter of balancing the components to achieve the goals for Velocity of increased overall distance and improved greenside spin.
“In this case we developed a higher compression core and complemented that with a new cover formulation. The combination of those two factors helped us meet and exceed the expectations we had for this product.”
