Select The Best Golf Balls To Improve Your Game

When it comes to trying to select the best golf balls, there are literally hundreds of different

types, brands and sizes that you can to choose from. Each golf ball manufacturer makes a number of

different types of balls all designed with different playing styles, different types of players and

different price brackets. So as a consumer how do you go about selecting the best golf balls for your

needs? This is easy when you consider that golf ball manufacturers generally break their products into

two distinct groups ? the two piece balls and the multi layer balls. Let?s take a moment to examine each

one in more detail.

The two piece golf ball is the traditional distance ball. This means that

it is designed to travel. The two piece ball consists of the core and a cover and as a result of this

design, the two piece balls travel the maximum distance no matter what the swing speed is. As a player,

you will generally hear an audible click when you make contact with this ball when you hit it with your

club. Because these balls get less sidespin they tend to fly straighter even if they are hit of the heel

or toe. Two piece balls are generally cheaper than the multi layer balls.

The multi layer ball

on the other hand is either a three piece or four piece ball and is made up of a core, a mantle, and then

a cover. These are generally more expensive balls. They usually feel softer to hit and have a higher spin

rate because of this softness. In the higher spinning balls, the mantle helps to transfer the energy to

the core whereas in a lower spinning ball the mantle will help to reduce the spin off a player who

chooses to use a driver or a longer club.

So how do you work out which ball will best suit and

even improve your game? Firstly you need to determine what type of player you are or want to become.

Players that are mostly concerned with getting more distance off the tee are better off opting for the

two piece ball. Where as players who want more control in the ball should opt for the multi layer ball.

The best way to decide between the two is to head to the gold range and hit a few buckets to get a feel

for both types.
