Golf Balls

You may think it’s quite simple to choose your golf balls; well they are all the same aren’t they? Well no, this isn’t actually true, golf balls may all look the same and look pretty simple on the outside but each one is made differently with either performance or value in mind.

When hunting for golf balls you need to first sort out which ones are value balls, and which ones are performance golf balls. If you are just starting out you may want to go for the value golf balls first rather than dive straight in to professional balls. With value balls you don’t need to worry too much about loosing quite a few as you do for performance golf balls which typically cost three times as much. As you start to get more comfortable playing golf you will start to improve your game and lose less golf balls. You can then start to move on to the more performance based golf balls which can potentially knock a few strokes of your game.

 

Take a close look at your golf ball dimples. Not all golf balls have the same shaped dimples and this can actually affect the distance and lift your ball experiences. There are a variety of shapes your golf ball dimples can have such as round, triangular or hexagons. Round dimples are the standard for most golf balls but if you want your golf ball to travel a longer distance you can try out a golf ball with hexagon dimples.

The amount of dimples your ball has can also affect what it does in the air. The more dimples your ball has the more backspin you can create and so the higher the ball will go. You may not want to count the dimples by hand of course so do some research on the ball type first. Each golf ball will typically have between 300 and 500 dimples depending on the model.

There are also a variety of other factors to consider about the manufacture of the golf ball such as the core stiffness, cover thickness and stiffness. The cover can affect the velocity and backspin of the ball where as the core can affect the ball’s responsiveness. In fact there are a variety of materials that will be used for different balls that can affect your game in subtle ways.

You may not realise it but even the very colour of the ball can affect your game. White balls are generally cooler as the material reflects all light giving it the white colour. Black balls or other darker coloured balls will absorb most light making the ball and air around it warmer.
