Choosing Your Golf Ball

Archived in the category: Golf Equipment

Did you know that choosing your golf ball carefully can help bring your golf score down? After all it’s the thing you’re scoring with and there are so many variations so different golf balls must mean different things!

Hard Golf Balls
You’re going for all out distance here and you’re looking to be playing this ball on soft greens and wet fairways so you can maximise your distance whilst still maintaining control because of the conditions. Example of this type of golf ball would be Top Flights, Pinnacle, and Donnay. If you’re a weekend golfer with no competition in mind, these golf balls are probably what you would like to afford and not mind losing.

Soft Golf Balls
Soft golf balls are most likely in favour of the stronger handicap golfer and can benefit his or her game once they have mastered their control of distance and the spin on the golf ball. Soft balls compress easier and allow a golf club to dig in to it to generate more spin and stop the golf ball comfortably. Soft golf balls can also feel better putting with. Soft balls help a golfer feel in more control of their golf ball and the feel and control you get is what will allow you to be 1ft from the pin instead of having a golf ball that doesn’t spin as easily roll 5ft by.

Nice article. Some new golfers don’t even know there are differences in the golf balls.
