Wilson’s Duo Soft has long been regarded as one of the softest balls on the market, making it ideal for golfers with slower swing speeds. Wilson’s tagline of “nothing feels better than a Duo Soft,” is a reflection of the softness of the ball. The goal of the new version is the same—offer the great feel, but with more energy transfer, resulting in longer shots.
Key technologies
The Basics
The Duo Soft maintains many of its keys—a two-layer golf ball with a surlyn cover, which you’d expect from a value-based ball, and a super low compression of 35, making it great for mid and high handicappers.
What’s new
Optimized flight
Wilson improved the cover of the golf ball resulting in less drag. That means the Duo Soft in 2023 will offer a longer carry and fly straighter on drives, and spin where you want it to—on shorter iron shots and chips. While the ball feels soft, there’s a mid-hardness cover that is designed to offer a premium feel.
New core
There’s a new engine to the Duo Soft, which Wilson is heralding as offering more energy return and therefore longer distances.
The core of DUO SOFT is specially formulated for maximum energy return. The result is shots that fly farther and launch easier with less effort.
Colour
Wilson is continuing to offer the Duo Soft in five colours—white, green, yellow, orange and red.
Is it for me?
Golfers with slower swing speeds—90 miles per hour or less—will love the benefits of the Wilson Duo Soft, as well as the affordable price point.
