If you’re still relying on basic markings for your putts, Titleist presents a significant upgrade that could revolutionize your game on the greens.
Lining up putts accurately is a common challenge, even for seasoned golfers. Any advantage on the green is welcome.
Recognizing this, Titleist has extended its innovative AIM alignment technology beyond the premium Pro V1 range. For 2026, AVX, Tour Soft, Velocity, and TruFeel models will also feature these tour-inspired visual aids, making advanced alignment accessible to more players.
Extensive testing indicates that these new balls can improve putting accuracy by as much as 35%. This isn’t merely a cosmetic change; it’s a straightforward path to sinking more putts.
Here’s how this small adjustment to your equipment can lead to more effective putting:
How It Works
The core principle is straightforward: clearer visual cues lead to more consistent alignment.
Titleist collaborated with both elite professionals and amateur golfers, meticulously studying their putting alignment techniques and identifying the visual aids they trusted most.
Their research revealed that approximately 65% of Titleist tour players already utilize some form of alignment marking.
Early AIM designs were directly inspired by these most common alignment practices, particularly the use of a long, straight line along the side of the ball.
To quantify the benefits, Titleist developed a proprietary system to measure golfers’ aiming precision. This system tracked left-to-right alignment and collected thousands of data points during rigorous testing.
The findings consistently showed that golfers using AIM designs achieved a significantly tighter dispersion pattern compared to those using standard side stamps.
Titleist AIM Golf Balls: The Full Line-up
The advanced AIM alignment designs are now available across Titleist’s AVX, Tour Soft, Velocity, and TruFeel models, joining the esteemed Pro V1 family.
AVX AIM 360
The AVX model features a unique 360-degree alignment design that subtly wraps around the entire circumference of the ball.
This marking gradually softens, providing a natural yet highly effective aiming guide for superior accuracy.
Titleist recommends the AVX for golfers seeking lower spin, a penetrating ball flight, and an exceptionally soft feel.
Its softer urethane cover significantly enhances short game control, offering greater stopping power on approach shots to the greens.
Furthermore, long game performance remains uncompromised, thanks to a faster core formulation and a re-engineered high-flex casing layer.
Tour Soft AIM Performance
The Tour Soft introduces an extended three-line alignment system, designed to offer a more defined, crisp, and structured visual aid for alignment.
Regarding on-course performance, Titleist states this ball delivers outstanding results from tee to green.
New for 2026 are updates to the dimple design, core dimensions, and elastomer cover blend.
These enhancements contribute to a more consistent flight, efficient stopping power, and a very soft feel.
The alignment system is available in both blue and black or red and black options.
Velocity AIM Performance
The Velocity model stands out with a bold, arrow-style alignment design in striking orange and black, making it the most visually distinctive option in the series.
This golf ball is engineered for players who prioritize maximum distance. Every layer of the Velocity ball incorporates new advancements to boost distances, reduce long-game spin, and promote a piercing ball flight.
TruFeel AIM 360
The TruFeel also incorporates a 360-degree alignment design, but with a more prominent red arrow pattern.
As Titleist’s softest golf ball, the TruFeel is crafted to deliver impressive distances combined with an exceptionally soft feel and consistent spin around the greens.
