Are men's and ladies golf balls the same?
Ladies golf balls are usually softer than men's golf balls, which is the overall compression of the golf ball.
Players with slower swing speed will often benefit from a lower compression golf ball, which can help improve distance. Higher swing speeds will usually need a higher compression golf ball.
Ladies golf balls can be used by men who have slower swing speeds, and ladies with higher swing speeds may benefit from using a standard men's golf ball.

Should I play a hard or soft feeling golf ball (compression)?
This is down to the individual player, as some players prefer a softer or harder feeling golf ball.
Most budget golf balls have a hard feel as they are often a standard two piece construction (similar to range golf balls). These include Srixon Distance, Wilson Boost, Callaway Warbird, TaylorMade Distance + etc.
Our mid-range golf balls often have a very different feel, and there are different options within this range. For example the Srixon Softfeel is softer than the Srixon AD333 and have different ball flight. They are both similar priced 2 piece construction golf balls, but the compression is different.
Our premium golf balls all differ incliding the distance, flight, feel, spin and contriol. This is important for the low handicap players when choosing the best golf balls for their game.
The best-selling Titleist ProV1 and ProV1x perform differently, and the ProV1 will feel slightly softer than the ProV1x.

Should I buy a premium golf ball for the best results?
Not necessarily, you should consider the amount of golf that you play and also your standard of golf.
If you only play a few rounds per year, you should look for a golf ball that suits your game. You could spend £50 per dozen on Titleist ProV1, TaylorMade TP5 etc. but if you're not playing to a good enough standard you will not feel the benefit, and it could be expensive.
Lower handicap players will definitely benefit from more control when playing a premium tour golf ball.
-
What's the best golf ball trajectory?
The trajectory of the golf ball is determined by the golf club and the player.
Some players hit a low trajectory ball flight and may benefit from a higher trajectory golf ball.
If the ball launches too low or too high this will reduce the carry (distance) of the golf ball.
Our premium Titleist ProV1 and ProV1x offer different ball flights especially with a driver This is why some tour players play ProV1 and others play ProV1x golf balls. The Titleist ProV1 has a lower ball flight, which may benefit players that launch the ball slightly too high.
-
Can I choose a ball based on how far I hit it?
Players that hit a long ball may benefit for using a premium golf balls, but should also consider your ability (handicap), and other factors like spin rate, trajectory etc.
If you have a slow swing speed and don't hit the ball very far, maybe look to try a low compression ball which may help increase your distance.
-
Do some golf balls go straighter than others?
Some golf balls are designed to go straighter than others, but usually it's the golfer and his/her club path and face which is more important.
If you swing across the ball (out to in) this could result in a pull, slice or fade. The opposite for an in-to-out swing path, which could result in a push, hook or draw.
You can find more information online about the straightest golf balls, but these are out top 5 from testing in our indoor simulator. Titleist Velocity, TaylorMade Tour Response, Titleist Trufeel, Callaway Chrome Soft and Srixon AD333.
-
What is spin?
The spin of the golf ball is measured in RPM, and this is very important factor when selecting the correct golf ball for your game. Our premium golf balls will spin more than other golf balls due to the construction and softer cover of the golf balls.
Premium tour golf balls are usually 3, 4, or 5 piece construction with a softer cover to help improve control for the better players. The spin rates are different for each tour golf ball. You can see the different spin rates if you have a lesson or ball fitting using a radar system.
If the spin rate is too high or too low with a driver this will reduce the ball distance. Greenside spin is also very important for control, so it should not be too high or low.
We would recommend having a golf ball fitting to find the golf balls that are best for your game.
