When I started playing golf I was under the impression that all golf balls were made the same and used for the same purpose, I of course, was wrong. I didn't really have anyone to tell me "Hey, your using the wrong ball for this shot!", I just wanted to get on the course and play. Shortly thereafter I began taking golf a little more serious.

In this article I discuss the 2 basic types of golf balls and I'll give ya examples of each one.

If you are going for maximum distance then you'll want to choose a hard 2-piece golf ball. These balls have a hard Surlyn cover and a solid core. The Surlyn cover makes this ball extremely resilient to scuffs and deep scratches. Hard golf balls travel much further than soft ones, however there isn't much workability since there is very little spin. These are the best types of golf balls for weekend hackers (and the driving range). An example of a 2-piece golf ball would be the - Maxfli Noodle.

If distance isn't a problem for you but controlling the ball is, then you need to choose a softer one. These balls provide workability via a higher rate of spin. Instead of the 2-piece construction these have a 3-piece construction:

1. A very soft or sometimes liquid core

2. An inner layer of rubber windings

3. An outer layer of urethane (much softer than Surlyn)

Spin rate (and launch height) can also be controlled by the amount of dimples and their shape. An example of a soft 3-piece golf ball would be the famous - Titleist Pro V1x

Are you still wasting your money on new golf equipment? Used Golf Clubs and Used Golf Balls are a great way to play more golf without going broke!
