Expert Guide: Golf ball selection
Have you ever wondered what the best ball for your game would be?
Do you like a golf ball and want to find similar ones?
Let us help you with that!
In a very simplified way, and without this been intended as a comprehensive ball fitting, @ GolfBallsHUB we believe the three most important factors in choosing the right ball are:
1.- Swing speed & Ball compression: Faster swings need harder balls.
2.- Desired general ball feel: Soft vs Firm vs Hard - Up to you!
3.- Spin profile: High vs Medium vs Low - Up to you!
You don't need to understand how these factors interact to use our ball selection guide, but if you want to know more about them and how we built our comparison tool, READ THE EXPLANATIONS HERE.
-------------------------
Filter the table below by your 7-iron distance or swing speed range, the desired ball feel and spin profile to see what ball (or balls) match your game.
-------------------------
For example, if you normally reach 150y with your 7-iron and you want a ball that feels soft, then filter by "7-iron distance" at "145 - 160" and "Ball feel" at "Soft" and see the results.
For a better experience with the table, turn your phone sideways or, even better, use a laptop.
Enjoy the results!
If after all this info, selecting a golf ball makes you feel overwhelmed and loaded in responsibility, please have a look one of our favorite TED Talks: "The paradox of choice". Mr. Barry talks about the relation between having too many options and the happiness from your decision, and he even mentions something about golf in minute 12:10. Hope you like it!
