Amazingly, those 300 to 400 dimples on a golf ball are there to improve the aerodynamics of your ball and yet, the most expensive ball isn’t necessarily the best one for you.

There are two types of golf balls for you to choose from. These being … 

    The conventional golf ball made from a core of wound rubber covered with a synthetic casing known as ‘balata’ or ‘surlyn’.  The ‘balata’ ball is often preferred by professionals as they give a little more feel, but they are more easily cut or marked. The ‘surlyn’ ball is virtually cut-proof and often better for the club golfer or high-handicapper.

    The second type of golf ball is a solid ball made in one piece from a mixture of materials and is usually used at driving ranges. These balls are very much cheaper and tougher than the conventional balls. They go on shot after shot, unmarked and just getting more and more dingy! This ball loses distance which only makes a slight difference for a high-handicapper or beginner BUT a significant difference in the distance of the drive for a lower-handicapper or better golfer.

All golfers have been penalized at some time during a competition for hitting the wrong ball. The easiest way to identify your ball is to mark it uniquely. This can be with a number, a company logo or even your very own name or initials! If you'd like to brand your own identity, here's a way to do it with this easy customized ball marker.

The different range in prices for the ordinary ball varies according to compression …. with the hardest compression being top of the range. Compression being the ease with which the ball compresses or squashes up as the club-head strikes it. Thus, the harder compression golf ball is more suitable for the really good golfer who has the club-head speed to be able to compress it.

So now …. based on the above insight, your choice of the ball most suitable for your game should be easier. It all depends on the level of your handicap, the standard of your golf …. and your budget!
