Maxfli is back making golf clubs again, and I got to try the new models myself
Golf is a sport where a few brands dominate the equipment market. Callaway, Titleist, TaylorMade, Cobra, PXG, and some niche premium brands tend to stand out. Other brands are mostly forgotten and unable to get a foothold. But now and then, a new company makes waves. Or in this case, an old company making a return gets the golfing world's attention. Maxfli, a brand that never fully went away, is back making clubs in the form of two iron sets, and I got to try the new XC3 irons for myself to see how they fit my golf game, and they're really good. If you're curious about the Maxfli XC3 irons and whether they're worth the $1000 cost of admission, here are my thoughts after using them. Maxfli makes a fantastic first impression with its forged XC3 irons. The XC2 looks a little nicer with its thinner, more player-focused design, but it's harder to hit for high-handicap players like me. They have a matte silver finish and aren't overly busy on the backside. They're not super-game improvement, so they don't have excessively chunky soles on the bottom (which isn't ideal for my game, but we'll get to that soon). Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The Maxfli XC3 irons provide decent levels of forgiveness for upper-middle handicap players, and they are priced slightly lower than comparable models from other brands. Beginners will want wider soles on their clubs, which might make these the wrong choice for such players. Lower-handicap players will appreciate the XC2 irons, which are also priced at $999. The Maxfli logo on the club is tasteful and doesn't draw too much attention. In fact, that's the overall theme of these irons: they're so subtle that the simplicity of the design makes them stand out. Most importantly, the clubs feel good. When I made clean contact, they offered a satisfying impact — both in sound and touch. Because they're not quite as wide-bodied as I typically use, I didn't make good contact as much as I'd like, but that's more a fault of my game than the clubs themselves. If you're looking for new irons and you're in the mid-handicap range, you'll do well with Maxfli's offering, especially if you don't want to use the same forged irons as everyone else. Maxfli isn't as popular as TaylorMade and Titleist, for example, so you'll have some clubs that stand out from the crowd and will draw some attention. While I liked Maxfli's new clubs when I was trying them out, it was the company's Tour model balls that impressed me — and converted me for the long haul. I tried all three models — the Tour, Tour X and Tour S — and the Tour S was the right model for me. It offers a lower ball flight with low long-game spin and high spin around the greens. For a player looking to gain distance, this is the ball to use, as it will still allow you to maintain control in the short game. The Tour X offers a higher launch and high spin for both short and long shots. The Tour offers mid-spin for long game and mid-height launch with high spin around the greens. These are my new golf balls of choice, replacing the Vice balls I've relied on for my short golf career. Between the value they offer, solid durability (though I tend to lose balls before they wear out) and extra distance, I love them. And Dick's/Golf Galaxy have deals if you buy multiple dozens, making them an even better value. They're all of the same quality and, most importantly, the same price. Compared to other high-end balls, such as the beloved Titleist Pro V1 and TaylorMade TP5, these are approximately $15 cheaper per dozen. For the player who's ready to stop using random balls they find at the course or cheap balls that feel like rocks, these are the perfect step-up point. I've decided to switch to the Tour S for the time being. I've been a long-time Vice user, but the price and performance of the Tour S made it worthwhile — my average drive increased by seven yards since switching, which is quite a notable bonus. I haven't noticed a significant difference in my overall scores yet, but it's still early in the season. In some ways, Maxfli never really left, as the company has offered balls all along, but with its updated balls and new clubs, the company is truly back in the golf game. And with Dick's Sporting Goods behind it, it'll be interesting to see where the company goes over the next few years. Based on my time with DSG representatives, the company has its sights set on long-term gains, which is exciting for the golf world as a whole.

Get Equipped: New Ping putters, Vokey wedges, Maxfli balls
Get Equipped: New Ping putters, Vokey wedges, Maxfli balls Learn everything you need to know about the new Ping Scottsdale putters, Vokey WedgeWorks 44F wedge, Maxfli's new urethane-covered balls and more As of today, there are 37 days until the opening round of the 2025 Masters Tournament, and while this week's Arnold Palmer Invitational and next week's Players Championship will command the full attention of the game's best players, the challenge of Augusta National looms and equipment preparations are starting to be made. Typically, golfers bring the 14 clubs they intend to use to a tournament, along with a backup driver and a backup putter. Some may bring either a high-lofted fairway wood or a driving iron too and make a game-time decision on which could be the most helpful based on the conditions and the course. But in the days and weeks ahead, golfers who know they will be competing in the Masters will likely get new sand wedges and lob wedges, practice with them once or twice, or maybe use them in a practice round before putting them away and saving them for Masters week. The thinking is that Augusta National's greens, tight ties and unique holes demand that players control the ball and use precision around the greens, so fresh, sharp grooves are a must. However, pros tend not to like using brand-new wedges because they are not always sure the bounce and sole configurations match what they want. A practice session or practice round can confirm that the wedges work properly and give a player confidence without wearing the grooves, and going through the process this week at Bay Hill or in the next few weeks means that if changes have to be made, everything will get done before the golf world descends upon Augusta. If you haven't swaped out your wedges, now might be the time to talk with a good custom fitter about which models match your game and the course conditions in your area. Wedges like the Callaway Opus, Cleveland RTZ, Cobra King, Mizuno T1, PXG Sugar Daddy, Ping s159, TaylorMade MG4, Titleist SM10 and Wilson Staff Model offer a variety of lofts, sole grinds and options that could help you develop a better short game this season.

Maxfli Tour, Tour X, Tour S golf balls
Maxfli Tour, Tour X, Tour S golf balls After re-entering the premium ball market in 2024, Maxfli has three options for golfers who want distance off the tee and spin around the greens. Gear: Maxfli Tour, Tour X, Tour S golf balls Price: $40 per dozen Specs: Three-piece, urethane-covered balls in white and yellow (Tour, Tour S). Four-piece, urethane-covered balls in white and yellow (Tour X). Who it's for: Golfers who want speed off the tee and extra greenside spin and control on approach shots. What you should know: Each of the three Maxfli Tour balls features a cast urethane cover for short-game spin, but with different compressions, they offer varying levels of firmness, spin, and speed off the tee. The deep dive: For golfers who have been around for a while, the name Maxfli harkens back to a time before carbon fiber drivers, hollow-body irons, and zero-torque putters. Last season was big for the golf ball maker that has been owned by Dick's Sporting Goods since 2008. Maxfli signed LPGA star Lexi Thompson and PGA Tour up-and-comer Ben Griffin, and they used Maxfli golf balls in competition. Now, for 2025, Maxfli has updated its three premium balls and has options that could be considered by a wide range of players who want distance off the tee and lots of spin on approach shots, chips, and pitch shots. The Maxfli Tour, Tour X, and Tour S golf balls all feature a cast urethane cover that is thin, soft, and easily grabbed by the grooves of wedges and short irons. That's what helps each of the three balls create more spin around the green. Each ball is available in white and yellow, but there are significant variances between the balls that make them perform differently. Maxfli Tour: This ball has a three-piece construction that includes a large rubber core, a firm mantle layer, and a cast urethane cover. With a compression around 95, it has a firm feel and should produce low spin for most golfers off the tee and with fairway woods, hybrids, and long irons. Maxfli Tour S: Like the standard Maxfli Tour, the Tour S has a three-piece construction that includes a large rubber core, a firm mantle layer, and a cast urethane cover, but its compression is around 85, so it should feel and sound much softer than the Tour ball. The Tour S will spin less off the tee and from the fairway, so it should fly lower and create less sidespin than the standard Maxfli Tour, which means the severity of hooks and slices should be decreased. Maxfli Tour X: The Tour X is a four-piece ball that has a rubber core and two mantle layers under its cast urethane cover. The Tour X has a compression around 100, so it will feel firmer than the standard Tour ball and much firmer than the Tour S. At the same time, the Tour X will be the highest-flying and highest-spinning Maxfli Tour offering, making it an option for players who want to hit controlled draws and fades around the course and flight shots more easily.
