Black Friday Golf Ball Deals 2026: What Actually Drops, and What Never Does
By WITBhub · Updated Nov 9, 2026 · We earn a commission from some links
The short answer
The Pro V1 barely moves: its Black Friday deal has been a two-dozen box at 10 percent under two singles, $99.98 in 2023, or about $50 a dozen. The real cuts in 2025 were bundles: three dozen Wilson, Mizuno or PXG for $100, and four dozen Tour B for $150 or Chrome Tour for $165.

Buy when you need themBuy when you need balls. The holiday box has been about $50 a dozen, and nothing deeper is on record.

Wait for the dealWait for the four-dozen packs. In 2025 they ran $37.50 to $41.25 a dozen at Golf Galaxy, Thanksgiving week through Cyber Monday: this year, November 25 to 30.
We dated every Black Friday ball deal we could verify from 2023 to 2025 and set it against the balls in 278 tour pros' bags. The ball most of them play barely moves. The multi-dozen packs from the brands chasing it do, and several previous models already sell at holiday prices.

All Black Friday golf deals01Verdicts
The verdict, ball by ball
Ordered by how many tour pros play each ball. The holiday price is the best one we could verify in a dated, published Black Friday roundup, and the per-dozen column does the bundle math for you.
Pro bags: tour pros with a ball recorded in a bag dated within the last 24 months (n = 278). Holiday prices are from dated press roundups, retailer pages and brand announcements, listed in the methodology. Per-dozen figures are the bundle price divided by the number of dozens.
02Pro V1
The Pro V1: the ball that does not need a sale
Titleist counts the Pro V1 and Pro V1x at 73 percent of the balls teed up on the 2025 PGA Tour, more than seven times the nearest rival (Titleist's figures, published by Golf Retailing). In the bags we track it is 200 of 278, or 72 percent. A ball with that demand gets one holiday mechanic, and it has not changed in three years: two dozen in a holiday box for about $10 less than two single dozens.

What has changed is the sticker. In 2023 two single dozens added up to $109.98 at PGA TOUR Superstore, or $54.99 each. At our September 21 and October 27 checks, a dozen of the 2025 Pro V1 or Pro V1x was $57.99 at 2nd Swing, and it was still $57.99 when we looked again on November 6. Two singles now cost $115.98, which leaves Titleist two obvious ways to price this year's box.
Before you stock up, know the cycle. Titleist released new versions of the Pro V1 and Pro V1x in 2019, 2021, 2023 and 2025. If that rhythm holds, the ball you buy this month becomes the previous model early in 2027, and for several other brands, the previous model is already discounted. That is a pattern, not an announcement.
The most played ball in pro golf, and the softer, lower-flying of the two Titleists.

Titleist describes it as mid-flight with very low long-game spin and a softer feel than the Pro V1x. Scottie Scheffler, Viktor Hovland and Adam Scott play it, and on the women's tours it outnumbers the Pro V1x by about two to one.

Where the real ball deals have been
The discounts come from the brands chasing Titleist, and they arrive as more balls for the money, not a lower sticker. These are the tour-grade Black Friday 2025 prices we could verify, converted to a dozen. The Pro V1 bar is the 2023 box price, the last year with a dollar figure we can print.

Two things stand out. The first is the spread: $16.66 a dozen separates the cheapest tour-grade bundle from the Pro V1 box.
The second is who sits at the cheap end. Wilson, Mizuno and PXG make urethane-covered tour balls that are in no pro bag we track. That is the trade on offer: tour construction without the tour following, at $2.78 a ball.
A year of golf balls
At a dozen a month, the cheapest tour-ball bundle saves about $200 a year on the Pro V1 box, and $296 on Pro V1s bought by the dozen.

04Previous model
The previous model already sells at holiday prices
Holiday discounts arrive two ways: bundles of the current ball, and lower prices on the previous one. The second is already on sale. Sealed, new previous-model stock from Callaway, TaylorMade and Srixon sat $10 to $13 under the current ball on November 6.
Our view: unless you are fitted to the yard, a sealed one-generation-old tour ball is a better buy than this year's. On November 6, the previous Chrome Tour X and TP5 were $44.99 against $57.99 for the 2026 balls. The one rule is to buy sealed boxes from a real shop, not loose balls of unknown age. Titleist is the exception: 2nd Swing listed no prior-generation Pro V1 on November 6, because the 2025 ball is still current.

Which ball to buy on sale, by how you swing
Black Friday is a poor time to experiment with a ball you have never played and a good time to stock up on one you know. If you are choosing, start with speed. The pairings use the makers' own descriptions; the counts show how many tour pros made the same choice. This is guidance, not a fitting.

What the pros play, and why ranking changes the answer
Across 278 pro bags, the Pro V1 family is in 200. The share is not even, though. It is lowest at the very top of the game and climbs the further down the rankings you go.

In the men's and women's world top 10, only 6 of the 17 players whose bags we have play a Titleist. Rory McIlroy plays the TP5, Xander Schauffele the Chrome Tour, Tommy Fleetwood the TP5x, Chris Gotterup a Tour B X Mindset. Among the top four women, Nelly Korda, Atthaya Thitikul, Hae Ran Ryu and Miyu Yamashita, there is no Titleist at all.
What that means for you: if you want the ball most working pros choose, it is a Pro V1 or Pro V1x. If you want the ball the very best play, it could be any of five brands, and most of them get cheaper on Black Friday.
Women's pro golf is the least Titleist market we track: 23 of 47 bags (49%). Women also flip the men's preference inside the Titleist family, choosing the Pro V1 over the Pro V1x 15 to 8, while men go 91 to 80 the other way, counting variants. TaylorMade's TP5x is in 6 of the 47.

Costco's own archived pages show $34.99 for two dozen on December 14, 2024, $29.99 on December 23, and $29.99 with "Buy 2, Save $20" on January 16, 2025. We have no dated Costco price from Black Friday week; Golf Monthly's 2025 list noted 10 percent off two dozen ahead of it. Costco now sells a Performance Plus V3.0, so reviews of earlier versions may not describe the ball you get.

Ben Griffin's ball, the only one in a top-50 bag that most golf shops cannot sell you.
Golf Galaxy's 2025 holiday event ran November 26 to December 1; this year's equivalent is November 25 to 30. Look then, and compare per dozen with the bundles above.

Why it is here
Griffin plays the Tour X, the only Maxfli in a pro bag we count. Golf Galaxy lists Maxfli among brands sold only at Golf Galaxy and DICK'S Sporting Goods, so its holiday price is whatever those two stores decide. We could not verify a dated Black Friday price, so we print none.

09Before you pay
Three checks before you pay
Ball deals are easy to misread. These take ten seconds each.
Do the dozen math
Divide the price by the number of dozens. A $165 four-pack is $41.25 a dozen; a $99.98 two-pack is $49.99. Compare per dozen, never per box.
Read the year on the box
The 2024 and 2026 Chrome Tour X share a name and sat $13 apart on November 6. If a deal looks too good, it is often an older generation. That can be fine, as long as you know.
Do not pay for color
Yellow, alignment and high-number versions of the Pro V1, Pro V1x and Chrome Tour cost the same as white at 2nd Swing on November 6. The TP5 Tracker was the exception, at $7 more.
Questions
Golf ball deals: your questions, answered
Do Pro V1s go on sale on Black Friday?
Barely. In 2023 Titleist's Black Friday deal was a two-dozen holiday box at $99.98, against $109.98 for two single dozens, which is $49.99 a dozen. In 2024 and 2025 the same box was 10 percent under two singles. We found no deeper Pro V1 price in any dated roundup. A single dozen was $57.99 at 2nd Swing on November 6, 2026, so expect the 2026 box between $99.98 and about $104. That is our forecast.
How much is a dozen Pro V1 right now?
A dozen 2025 Pro V1 was $57.99 at 2nd Swing when we checked on Nov 6, 2026. That is a dated reading, not today's price. Every color and alignment version cost the same at our checks. The holiday two-dozen box has worked out to about $50 a dozen; our forecast for 2026 is $50 to $52.
What is the best golf ball deal on Black Friday?
For a tour-grade urethane ball, the multi-dozen bundles. On Black Friday 2025, Wilson, Mizuno and PXG sold three dozen for $100 ($33.33 a dozen), Bridgestone's Tour B was $150 for four dozen ($37.50) and Callaway's Chrome Tour was $165 for four dozen ($41.25). Single dozens of tour balls mostly landed at $39.99 to $45. None of the 2026 offers has been announced yet.
When is the cheapest time to buy golf balls?
It depends on the brand. Srixon's biggest promotion runs in late spring: buy two dozen, get one free from May 22 to June 15 in 2025. Kirkland's lowest dated prices at Costco came in late December and mid-January. Bridgestone, Callaway, TaylorMade, Wilson, Mizuno and PXG ran their best dated bundles in Thanksgiving week. Titleist barely moves at any point we could document.
Are Kirkland golf balls cheaper on Black Friday?
We have no dated Costco price from Black Friday week. Golf Monthly's 2025 list showed 10 percent off two dozen ahead of Black Friday. Our lowest dated prices came later: Costco's archived pages show Kirkland Signature at $34.99 for two dozen on December 14, 2024, $29.99 on December 23, and $29.99 with "Buy 2, Save $20" on January 16, 2025, which is $15 a dozen or less. Costco now sells a Performance Plus V3.0, to members only, five per membership.
What golf ball do most tour pros use?
The Titleist Pro V1 family. It is in 200 of the 278 pro bags we track with a ball (72%): Pro V1 in 97, Pro V1x in 89, and variants in the rest. Titleist's own count for the 2025 PGA Tour is 73 percent. Srixon is second with 24 bags, then TaylorMade (20), Callaway (18) and Bridgestone (15). The share is lowest among the very best players.
Is last year's golf ball worth buying?
For most golfers, yes, if it is sealed and new. On November 6, 2026, the 2024 Chrome Tour X and 2024 TP5 Yellow were $44.99 a dozen at 2nd Swing, $13 under the 2026 models. The TP5 Yellow matched TaylorMade's $45 Black Friday 2025 price, and Srixon's 2025 single-dozen cuts were on older models. Avoid loose balls of unknown age.
Are Cyber Monday golf ball deals better than Black Friday?
No. In 2025 the Cyber Monday golf ball deals were the same as Black Friday's, model for model and within $2 on the one price that differed, and Golf Galaxy ran a single event from Wednesday, November 26, to Monday, December 1. This year Black Friday is November 27 and Cyber Monday is November 30. Buy whenever in that window suits you; waiting for Monday gained nothing last year.
Pro V1 or Pro V1x: which should I buy?
Titleist describes the Pro V1 as the lower-flying, softer of the two, with slightly less spin, and the Pro V1x as higher-flying and firmer, with more iron spin. Price is no tiebreaker: both were $57.99 a dozen at our 2026 checks and share the same holiday box. On tour, men lean Pro V1x, 91 bags to 80 counting variants; women lean Pro V1, 15 to 8.
Is buying four dozen golf balls worth it?
Only if you will play one model all season. The four-packs were the deepest tour-ball prices of Black Friday 2025: $150 for four dozen Tour B ($37.50 a dozen) and $165 for four dozen Chrome Tour ($41.25), both at Golf Galaxy. If four dozen would last you more than a season, a previous-model dozen now ties up less money.
What golf ball is best for a slow swing speed?
Bridgestone gives the clearest advice: it builds the Tour B RX and RXS for swing speeds under 105 mph, and the X and XS for faster ones. Titleist describes the Pro V1 as softer and lower-flying than the Pro V1x. The RXS was $39.99 a dozen at PGA TOUR Superstore on Black Friday 2025. Treat this as a starting point, not a fitting.
What golf balls do LPGA players use?
Mostly Titleist, but less often than men. In the 43 LPGA bags we track with a ball, Titleist is in 21 (49%), Srixon in 8, TaylorMade in 7, Callaway in 4 and Bridgestone in 3. Across all 47 women's bags, the Pro V1 leads with 15, then the Pro V1x with 8 and TaylorMade's TP5x with 6. Nelly Korda plays the TP5x.
Are used golf balls worth it?
They can be, but we cannot document a deal. We found no dated Black Friday pattern for recycled balls, grades are set by each seller, and we link no used-ball shop. Sealed previous-model stock is the cheaper tour ball we can document: the 2024 Chrome Tour X was $44.99 a dozen at 2nd Swing on November 6, 2026.
Methodology
How we built this guide
- Tour usage: n = 508 current pro bags dated within the last 24 months, of which 278 record a ball. Each player is counted once, with their most recent bag. No bag lists more than one ball model. Creators, celebrities and amateurs are excluded.
- Rank splits use the Official World Golf Ranking for men (208 world-ranked players with a ball recorded) and the Rolex Rankings for women. Samples at the very top are small, so every bar shows its n.
- We call a price live ("Price now") only within 7 days of our check, and within 72 hours from Thanksgiving. Older checks, up to 30 days, appear as dated "Seen" readings, never as today's price, and then disappear. Other "Seen" prices are our own dated observations of a shop page.
- We never print an Amazon price. Where a roundup's only listing for a deal was at Amazon, including the 2025 Pro V1 box price, the Z-Star Diamond two-pack and a Chrome Tour single dozen, we leave the price out or describe the offer without one.
- Historical prices come from dated, published Black Friday and Cyber Monday roundups, brand and retailer announcements, and archived retailer pages, listed below. Bundle prices are converted to a dozen. Where a source reported a percentage, we say whose figure it is.
- We left out every claim we could only find on deal forums. If we could not see it ourselves, it is not on this page.
- Ball descriptions paraphrase each maker's product copy. They are a starting point, not a fitting. Forecasts are labelled as forecasts.
- We link only shops that pay us a commission: 2nd Swing and Callaway. Callaway balls link to Callaway first. Where the best deal ran somewhere we do not link, we name the shop and leave the product unlinked.

How we make money. We earn a commission from links to shops that pay us (2nd Swing and Callaway). Which balls appear, and in what order, is set by usefulness to you, never by commission. Where the best deal ran at a shop we do not link, we name the shop and leave the product unlinked.
Updates
- Checked every dated price against its source. We removed prices whose only listing was at Amazon, corrected the Tour B RXS history and the TP5x tour rank, merged the three-for-$100 balls into one card, and added five questions.
- First version: dated Black Friday ball prices from 2023 to 2025, tour counts from 278 pro bags, and prior-generation prices seen at 2nd Swing on November 6.
