This is without a doubt, the most comprehensive golf ball test, ever.

If you think your golf ball matters, take a look and decide what's important to you and what ball you want to play or should play. MyGolfSpy takes no money from manufacturers, all their results are legit and unvarnished.

Very interesting. Thanks.

perfect swings, perfect shots, not most golfers

Pro's play what they are paid to play

With a good golf swing you can play anything, with a bad golf swing you can play anything, its all a matter of what you believe and your confidence in the ball once you stand over it, swing may not bear out the data

Play what makes you happy, a lot of techno data but it still comes down to your swing, its always the bottom line.

That's the way I always felt about the clubs using secondhand clubs,
or $1000 set.

Thank you for the reference. I love mygolfspy. I do think the golf ball matters.

Maybe, depends, the better the player the more the equipment matters. tournament level vs recreation: yes vs no

Yes, I think so too. First of all, you have to hit the golf ball… a dear (wealthy) girlfriend bought the most expensive balls made. After her third try and each ball ending in the water, which was almost 90° to us, she exclaimed “These balls haven’t helped at all”

Bingo.

Unless there is a sleeper, never seen or heard of a scratch golfer from the black tees in TV.

Villages courses are so easy. They are made for speed for old people, these are not challenging courses compared to the top 100 courses in the USA.

The only significant difference in golf balls for Villages is the price and marketing.

A newbie steps up to the first tee and opens up a new sleeve of ProV1's. Hits the first ball into the water and takes out a new ball. Hits that one into the water. Takes out the 3rd Pro V1 and hits it into the woods. Goes back to the bag for a new sleeve. His buddy says "Hey, why don't you just use an old ball"? He says, "I don't have any".

After about 225 rounds of golf, I’m down to the last half dozen balls from the bucket of 96 pristine quality used Titelist Velocity balls I bought from lostgolfballs.com for about $100. Those are plenty good enough for my game.
