How To Pick The Right Golf Ball For You
Contrary to what many people think, all golf balls are not made
alike. In fact, they are so diverse that there have been over
5,000 design patents for golf balls given in the last ten years.
It may seem like they haven't changed in decades, but golf balls
are some of the most researched and advanced pieces of equipment
in any sport today.
Selecting a ball that is right for the way you swing is critical
to your golf game. As important as picking the right set of
clubs, you need to find the type of golf ball that matches your
style of play and your golf swing. Different golf balls have a
different spin and a different feel. They are made with
different cover materials and of varying density. Picking the
one that works for you depends on your skill level and how you
hit the ball.
The first thing you might look at is the compression of the
ball. This relates to how tightly the ball is wound. The lower
the compression the softer the ball. Softer balls are better if
you have a slow swing, they will fly farther but are harder to
control. High compression balls, on the other hand are easier to
control but are best used by those with a fast swing.
To decide which golf ball is best for you, you can divide
them
into 3 general categories. The solid two piece ball is the most
common and, of course, the cheapest. It is comprised of a hard
cover over an inner core. This is a good ball for beginners
which can often hit the ball thin or fat.
The three piece ball is multilayered. Softer than the two piece
ball, it gives you more control but won't fly as far. This ball
is recommended for intermediate players as it will let you get
more spin and control over your shots. The three piece ball is
more expensive than the two piece but can add an edge to your
play if you are past the beginner stage and looking for
something to give you an edge.
The high performance balls can be rather costly and won't last
as long as the other types of balls. These balls are for the
expert player who wants more control and spin than the three
piece ball can offer. Although it is costly, this type of golf
ball has what it takes to go the distance.
