TaylorMade’s Tour Response Stripe golf balls have been a roaring success since they were introduced in 2022. It’s comfortably the brand’s most popular visual tech golf ball and now, for the first time ever, it has been made available on its Tour-validated TP5 and TP5x golf balls.
TaylorMade TP5 Stripe and TP5x Stripe will feature a new 360° ClearPath Alignment system – a 22mm band that wraps the entire way around the golf ball, allowing players to better line up putts and also receive visual feedback from well struck putts. Versus a single alignment line – the most popular system of alignment on golf balls – the 360° ClearPath Alignment allows golfers to line up putts more consistently on the greens. Off the tee, the technology can be used both an as alignment aid and a swing path reminder.
“TP5 and TP5x users around the world, myself included, have been hoping for this ball since first laying eyes on the Tour Response stripe. Now it’s finally here!”

The Englishman has been regular user of visual tech on his golf ball, having used TP5 Pix golf balls for a number of years. It’ll be worth keeping an eye out as to how quickly he puts these new balls into play.
While additional visual offering is sure to cement the place of the TP5 and TP5x among the best premium golf balls on the market. In his review of the latest TP5x golf ball, Joe Ferguson said, ‘There are genuine, tangible improvements in this ball from the previous iteration.
