Introducing the new Wilson Triad and Duo Soft golf balls, packed with tech and performance benefits that will help you find more fairways and sink more putts.

Building on the success of its award-winning previous generation, the new Triad claims to be the world’s ‘most balanced golf ball’.

With its patented Tri-Balanced Construction, the updated design ensures uniform density across all three layers, delivering a perfect centre of gravity for the purest roll.

The advanced design on the latest 80-compression Triad ball features a high MOI, which is designed to maximise ball speeds while reducing driver spin for enhanced accuracy off the tee.

The thin, high-friction urethane cover, meanwhile, increases clubface interaction for best-in-class control and feel on approach shots.

These enhancements are the result of a reduction in compression and a redesign of the core and mantle composition. The consistent density of the ball helps reduce spin without compromising on distance.

“Triad is the only perfectly balanced golf ball on the market with no ‘heavy’ spots, which can have a negative effect on putting and prevent a ‘true’ roll,” explained Frank Simonutti, the Global Director of Golf Ball Innovation at Wilson Golf.

“During testing, the new Triad had the longest driver distance and highest iron spin of competitive three-piece urethane balls. This was matched by having the highest average spin rate on 7-iron, 9-iron and 56˚ wedge shots.”

The new Duo Soft, meanwhile, remains the world’s softest golf ball and features a two-piece surlyn construction that delivers exceptional distance, a straight flight, and ultra-soft feel.

With its carefully calibrated design, the newly engineered high-energy core maximises distance off the tee. The soft core and stiff cover result in a compression of 37 for the softest feel of any golf ball.

Wilson says it also provides distance performance that’s longer than any two-piece premium ball while minimising spin for lower sidespin and a straighter flight.

“The new Duo Soft provides golfers with premium performance at an incredible price,” added Simonutti.

“During testing, the innovative high energy core showed that it carried longer than other competitive two-piece balls yet it continues to provide the softest feel of any golf ball, making it great for players who want a straighter flight and some help finding the fairway.”

RRP: £40 per dozen (Triad); £27 per dozen (Duo Soft)
