Bridgestone Tour B X Golf Ball 2026 – Maximum Distance Off the Tee with Tour-Level Control Around the Green
The Tour B X is the distance golf ball from Bridgestone’s premium Tour series and the go-to choice for long, controlled shots. The new REACTIV-X technology combines the intelligent REACTIV-iQ cover with an XCLRMT mid-layer: On a hard strike off the tee, the cover reacts with explosive rebound for increased ball speed and distance; on a soft approach shot, it stays on the clubface longer to generate Tour-level spin and control. In short: maximum distance off the tee and “Hit & Sit” when playing toward the flag. Developed in collaboration with Tiger Woods, Jason Day, Chris Gotterup, and Kurt Kitayama.
