How I Do I Choose The Right Golf Ball For My Experience Level
?Choosing the right golf ball for your golf experience level is an important piece of your golf game. Go to any sporting good store and notice the extensive selection of golf balls available to purchase. Some are built for spin, some are built for distance, some are hard, some are soft, some are yellow, some are pink, etc. If you are a beginning golfer, you will also definitely notice that some golf balls are inexpensive, and some are so expensive that you'll be too scared to play with it on the course for fear of losing it!
Golf balls are basically divided into two categories: recreational golf balls and advanced golf balls. Recreational golf balls are generally less expensive than advanced golf balls. They are designed for the ordinary weekend golfer, or someone who loses golf balls easily. Since beginning golfers usually have slower swing speeds than a more experienced golfer, the design of these golf balls suit them perfectly. This is because they are made with two layers: the cover and the core. These golf balls have low compression and side spin reduction characteristics which make them the perfect golf ball for the beginning to intermediate golfer.
Advanced golf balls are made for the more advanced player. These advanced golf balls require more skill and knowledge of how to properly hit them to make them fly in the intended direction. These balls are made with 3 layers, and usually have a soft cover and a firm core. They require more swing speed than a recreational golf ball. The correct golf swing will induce a great amount of spin on approach shots. These golf balls are usually much more expensive than a recreational golf ball because of their construction.
