Which Golf Ball Should I Use?
Golf balls often get overlooked compared to wedges and putters, but choosing the right one can significantly impact performance. PGA Associate and head instructor John Jeffrey shares his top picks:
-
For personal use, he prefers the Titleist Pro V1 for its consistency, soft feel, and spin control. He also recommends Callaway Chrome Soft for similar qualities and reduced slicing due to low compression.
-
For beginners, he suggests the Srixon Q-Star for its soft feel, lift, and affordability—ideal for all skill levels.
-
For players with a good short game but weaker drives, he recommends the Titleist Pro V1X for high flight and control, or Bridgestone E12 and Tour B RXS for distance and greenside performance, especially for swing speeds under 105 mph.
