Golf Ball Compression: What's the deal? 🤔
Does a slower swing speed player need a lower compression golf ball to get the most out of their game? Not necessarily!
We believe the golf ball's cover is actually more important than compression—although the two can go hand in hand. Here's why 👇
Generally speaking, golf balls are made with one of two cover materials: Ionomer or Urethane.
✅ Ionomer Covers • Spin less • Extremely durable • More affordable • Usually Seen In Lower Compression Golf Balls
✅ Urethane Covers • Spin more • Offer greater spin on approach shots and around the greens • Help golfers shoot lower scores
If you're a weekend warrior just looking to have fun with your buddies and score isn't your top priority, an ionomer-covered ball is a great option.
But if you're serious about improving and shooting lower scores, we believe a urethane cover is a must.
And here's the good news… not all urethane cover golf balls cost $75+ per dozen!
