The TaylorMade TP5x pix 3.0 is TaylorMade's fastest 5-layer Tour ball, engineered for golfers who demand maximum ball speed, a higher launch, and a penetrating ball flight without sacrificing greenside control. Built on the acclaimed TP5x platform and enhanced with the third generation of the iconic pix visual technology, this 2024 model raises the bar in every category — distance, spin separation, feel, and alignment feedback. Trusted by Tour professionals and serious amateurs alike, the TP5x pix 3.0 is the complete Tour performance package, now available in a convenient 12-ball pack.
Please note: these balls are not suitable for custom printing or personalisation.
The third generation of TaylorMade's pix visual system introduces a redesigned ClearPath Alignment™ feature with a longer center line and additional color contrast compared to prior designs. This enhanced alignment aid is engineered to give golfers a more reliable visual reference when setting up putts, making it significantly easier to square the putter face to the intended target line. The improved color contrast also delivers better roll feedback — golfers can instantly see whether the ball is rolling end-over-end or with side-spin, enabling more purposeful practice and on-course adjustments. The overall pix 3.0 pattern remains the most played all-over print visual technology on professional tours worldwide.
At the heart of the TP5x pix 3.0 sits a redesigned Speed Wrapped Core — a new, softer inner core that TaylorMade has engineered to decouple feel from speed in a way that was previously not achievable. The result is a noticeably more muted, softer sound at the moment of impact without any sacrifice in ball velocity. In fact, the new material-level advancements actively promote a faster overall design, giving the TP5x pix 3.0 the fastest and most responsive core construction in TaylorMade's 5-layer Tour ball history. Golfers who have historically preferred a firmer-sounding ball but wanted softer acoustics will find this core transformation a significant benefit.
The 2024 TP5x pix 3.0 features TaylorMade's most advanced 5-layer progressive construction to date, incorporating the brand's largest-ever speed gradient between layers. This architecture achieves a critical performance goal: maximising spin separation across the bag. With the driver and long irons, the ball delivers low spin and maximum velocity for extra distance — robot testing at Tour launch conditions confirms the 2024 TP5x is 5 yards longer than the 2021 model. Yet with wedges and scoring clubs, the same construction switches to high spin, giving tour-level greenside control. Four progressively stiffer inner layers are enclosed by a premium cast urethane outer cover, combining power and precision in a single ball.
The TP5x pix 3.0 features an aerodynamically refined Tour Flight Dimple Pattern, optimised for maximum carry distance and a piercing, stable ball flight through all conditions. The dimple geometry promotes a higher launch angle off the tee and long irons, helping golfers carry hazards and hold lines in crosswinds more effectively than previous generations. Crucially, the pattern is also engineered to produce a steeper angle of descent, meaning the ball checks up more predictably on firm approach shots and holds greens that lesser balls roll through. This combination of launch, carry, and descent control is what makes the TP5x pix 3.0 the preferred choice of Tour players who demand full-bag consistency from a single ball.
The premium cast urethane outer cover of the TP5x pix 3.0 is the cornerstone of its short-game performance. Cast urethane is softer and more responsive than ionomer or surlyn alternatives, engaging more deeply with the grooves of wedges and short irons to generate maximum friction and spin. This results in the kind of pitch and chip control that allows golfers to attack pins from any distance, with the confidence that the ball will respond predictably to lofted shots. The cover also provides a silky, responsive feel on chips, pitches, and bump-and-run shots — a tactile quality that separates premium Tour balls from the rest of the market.
The iconic pix pattern returns in its most refined iteration for 2024, covering the entire surface of the ball with a high-contrast graphic designed to serve both aesthetic and functional purposes. The all-over print helps golfers track the ball's flight path more easily against any background — blue sky, grey cloud, or tree-lined fairways — improving the speed and accuracy of ball location after every shot. On the green, the pix 3.0 pattern works in tandem with the new ClearPath Alignment™ system, giving golfers a multi-layered visual toolkit for alignment and roll-quality feedback. As the most widely played all-over print visual ball technology on professional tours, the pix design has earned its reputation at the highest level of the game.
