What golf ball do you play and how good are you?

[Lamont Burns]

Fuck accounting for your shitty slice, as the goal would be to improve that. Or hook, or whatever the hell your ball looks like in the air. Take account for how hard you swing. If the compression of the ball is jacked compared to your swing speed, you're losing a lot of potential distance.

People notating, "oh i like these ballz i hits them real gud" are not giving you shit for advice, as their swing versus your swing is completely unknown.

or there's always the fact that if you can't keep the ball from going OB/lost, just buy the cheapest piece of shit available.

Marginally talented golfers normally can't put any potential spin to any effective use, so its best just not to bother. Aso the idea of someone with a slice using a ball to agravate it further is ludicrously stupid.

i've been working on my slice fr 3 years, there has been no progress. Marginally talented golfers normally can put any potential spin to any effective use, so its best just not to bother.

You should try taking a lesson. From what I hear, a lot of it is the setup and backswing that leads to a lot of the problems

You can't fix a slice in 3 years? Open up your front foot. Grip the club harder. Close your left shoulder off.

Unless you are extremely rigid/stiff, a slice can be corrected in a day.

Ball selection for a novice has nothing to do with spin, not sure where I implied that.

I usually score between 85-90 on a 18 hole course..

From my experience, it does make a difference on type of balls, when you chip or hit balls within 120 yards..

My personal choice are Prov1x and Prov.

The ball tends to check better on the green with urethane cover balls.
No difference with a driver.

If you are hitting from the rough, you most likely won't produce any spins, so it's doesn't matter. But if you are within 120 yards and you are on a fairway, you can make the ball check or spin backwards with a urethane covered balls.

I'm sure there are lot of different opinions about their techniques and styles, so take the one that works for you.

Get a high distance, super stiff, ball. You dont want too much spin given your skill level ( exactly where I am right now). I have some Top-Flight XLs and i recently found some Wilson Distance balls at Sports Authority at 24 for $14. I think I'm welll stocked on balls for the time being.

He could always try the MC lady's. Low compression ball with very little spin.

yeah although i think most people have a stigma against using lady's equipment, such as super flexy clubs etc

They make a version called the "Laddie" I think too.

I can't stand flexible clubs. I have a very whippy graphite shaft driver and it always seems like I'm halfway through my followthrough when I feel contact with the ball.

Soft balls are nice to use, when the weather is cold..
MC lady is a good ball for Fall..
