Why does swing speed and compression matter?

Optimizing compression will optimize distance. Faster swings require a higher compression ball to optimize distance and for these players, we created the TOUR B X and XS models. Conversely, the TOUR B RX and RXS were engineered with lower compression to optimize distance for players with slower swing speeds.
