Purchase: I was playing in a corporate golf challenge event in the UK and our team were given these to use so I did not have to pay but I understood they were expensive top of the range balls. Pros: Great feel off the driver and irons, nice and soft. I normally use Titleist Pro V1, Callaway CTU or Maxfli Revolutions and in the feel respect, off the club face it was great. It stopped on a dime too so can't complain about that. Cons: The only thing I did not like about it was that I found it putted too soft. Sounds strange I know but with a normal 20 footer on a pretty flat green I generally get the pace just about right. I sort of have built up a feel for how hard to putt it so to speak. I use the same degree of power when I use Callaway CTU, Tileist Pro V1 or Maxfli Revolution and they all go about the same distance. With the Hi Brid, I found myself having to change my amount of effort used to obtain 20 feet of roll and this was playing havoc with my distance, especially from 15 feet or more. Quality: Well, I have to say that they don't last as long as say a Maxfli Revolution, a Titleist Pro V1 or a Callaway CTU. I have played a single Maxfli Revolution for 5 rounds one time and it was still going strong. I play off a low single figure handicap and get a lot of action with my irons which consequently means the golf balls take a bit of ware but this one had little pieces coming off it after one or two holes. It may be my striking was a bit off but hey, I never had that problem with the other balls I mentioned above? Review Summary: For me, I can't recommend the ball as it means I have to have different stength putting for when I use it and when I use my usual balls. Golf is hard enough without that to worry about!

I actually found one of these balls at our country club last week and really like the feel and the distance right off. Needless to say after about 8 holes the course finally got the better of me. Pros: This is the ball I have been looking for. I have had a hard time finding the right compromise for my game until hit these balls. I played 18 hole practice rounds on Thursday and Friday. This ball seemed to have as much distance of my driver as any ball I have ever hit. Spin was very limited and my trajectory was very consistent. I have been playing Pinnacle Power Core Straight Distance balls for the past couple of months. Anyone that has played these balls will agree they are long of the driver but hard around the green. Not the case for the HiBrid Tour. These balls have exceptional feel off irons and wedges. Putting was no different, exceptional feel all around the green. Two more round over the weekend proved very consistent results. Cons: Cost at $34.99 is not bad for a ball of this caliber, plays as well as the Pro V for considerably less money. Quality: A 3-Piece ball with great durability and feel. Review Summary: Really a great playing golf ball. Handles all aspects of the game. I will be using these for a while.

Purchase: I was given a ball by a golfing partner to try. After the round, I was convinced this ball is better than what I have.
Purchased on ebay for $55.00 for 2 dozens, shipping included. Pros: Although the feel is similar to the Maxfli revolutions, these balls fly farther off the tee, hold the greens well and putts soft. They are durable too.
I have used Callaways, Stratas, Maxflis, Titleists and Nikes but nothing compare to the Srixon Hi Brids, these are all around balls.
Cons: Not that easy to find at local golf stores. Quality: Durable. A ball can last for 3 rounds. Review Summary: I cannot say more except that these are the best balls I have ever used. For the money, they are half the price of the overrated balls and a few dollars less than the known brands.
