There’s an old saying that goes ‘a bad workman always blames his tools’. If that’s true, then it could definitely be said that a bad golfer blames their balls!
While it is true that success isn’t made or broken by the quality of your equipment - buying the most expensive golf balls on the market won’t make you Tiger Woods – it’s still important to make sure you have the best equipment for you.
Do golf balls make a difference?
The short answer to this question is yes, golf balls make a difference to your game. Regardless of your ability or experience levels, it’s always important to have balls suited to your playing style and skill level.
If you’re relatively new to golf and are still losing balls pretty regularly, it’s probably best to go for cheaper golf balls. Having expensive, professional-quality balls at this stage won’t necessarily make you any better at the game, and you’ll just be burning a hole in your pocket with the number of balls you’re losing.
As your game improves with time and you find yourself ready to invest in higher quality golf balls there are a lot of ball features to bear in mind – cover, core, compression rating, dimple pattern, and cost, to name just a few. All of these features can impact a balls flight pattern, spin, height, and distance. You also have to consider your own abilities, including your strength, swing speed, and overall accuracy.
Here at gimmeballs, we understand that finding the best ball for you isn’t always as easy as one, two, three – or should we say, eagle birdie, par – which is why we have put together multiple blogs on the subject:
We are often asked if ‘better’ golf balls are worth the more expensive price tag that usually comes with them – but to answer that, you’d first have to establish what a ‘better’ golf ball actually is, which is easier said than done. What might be the ‘best’ golf ball for one person might be completely different to someone else. There is no one best universal golf ball – the ‘best’ ball varies from golfer to golfer. With so many ball options available to you and with so many different factors and features to consider, it can be pretty overwhelming trying to find the right ball for you.
