Golfers certainly aren’t short on choice when it comes to picking a golf ball to play with. Golf is certainly a game of consistency, and playing with the same golf ball is one of the most overlooked factors when it comes to shooting lower scores. Far too many golfers use a variety of balls rather than sticking to one type, which will almost certainly lead to inconsistency in your golf game. This week, we’re going to take a look at the best options for all golfers and highlight a few golf balls which could help you to achieve more distance or more spin.
Callaway Supersoft – ideal for everyone
£25.00 per dozen, £7.00 per sleeve
Two sleeves for £13.00
The Callaway Supersoft is one of our most popular options in-store, mainly because of its low compression and affordable price which makes it a great option for a wide variety of golfers. As the name suggests, the Supersoft has an extremely soft core which helps with distance of the tee and with the irons. A newly redesigned cover also means you’ll get a good amount of spin around the greens to, making it a fantastic choice for the golfer who wants a good all-round golf ball. Available in a range of colours too, we’ve got something for everyone – and it’s equally as popular with both men and women due to its soft feel.
Srixon AD333 – ideal for higher handicappers
£25.00 per dozen
Two dozen for £40.00 – while stock lasts
Much like the Callaway Supersoft, the Srixon AD333 is a popular option for golfers of all abilities. Designed to be a premium, low compression golf ball, it also manages to find the perfect blend between distance and greenside spin. With a 338 speed dimple pattern, it is cleverly designed to achieve a mid-high flight and low long game spin. Even better, you can save on two dozen with the AD333 multipack, available while stock lasts for just £40.00! Visit us in-store to purchase yours before they’re gone!
TaylorMade Tour Response Stripe – ideal for mid handicappers
£40.00 per dozen, £11.00 per sleeve
Two sleeves for £21.00
One of the most striking golf balls available to buy, the TaylorMade Tour Response Stripe isn’t just a gimmick – it’s a fantastic golf ball too. A 3-layer core helps to achieve a fast ball speed, with a high flight and exceptional wedge spin and feel. The 360 degree stripe allows for incredibly easy alignment too, making lining up your putts a breeze. You can choose from a variety of colours too or go for the multipack which includes a sleeve of each colour. You can also pick up two of the multi-packs for £75.00, if you’re looking to stock up on golf balls for the summer!
Titleist Tour Soft – ideal for mid handicappers
£34.00 per dozen, £9.00 per sleeve
Two sleeves for £17.50
A great option for the mid-level handicapper, who wants a tour-level golf ball at an affordable price. Focused on having increased stopping power around the greens, the Tour Soft also gives plenty of distance off the tee as well as a higher launch on irons. A 386 quadrilateral dimple pattern helps to achieve a much more consistent ball flight, with a redesigned core to reduce long game spin and keep shots straighter. By achieving a higher launch on irons, it makes for a steeper descent angle into greens – taking stopping power to another level.
TaylorMade TP5 Pix & TP5X Pix – ideal for low handicappers
£48.00 per dozen, £14.00 per sleeve
Two sleeves for £26.00
One of the more premium golf balls, the TaylorMade TP5 & TP5X are often seen being used on tour by some of the world’s top golfers. More suited to the non-tour golfer, however, is the Pix variation of the TP5 and TP5X with its distinctive ClearPath Alignment design. Much to easier to find when you stray from the fairway and perfect for lining up putts, the Pix golf balls provide great putting feedback to help you better understand your misses. A 5-layer construction means that the TP5 requires a fairly fast clubhead speed, with the TP5X being an even firmer version of the TP5. Much like other premium golf balls, greenside spin is prioritised over distance of the tee, with a brand new Speed-Wrapped core design. And if you’d prefer to not have the Pix design, then you can pick up the TP5 & TP5X in plain and stripe designs instead.
Callaway Chrome Soft – ideal for low handicappers
£48.00 per dozen, £14.00 per sleeve
Two sleeves for £26.00
Available in a variety of designs, the Callaway Chrome Soft is another tour-level golf ball which utilises a range of clever design features to benefit the better golfer. Maintaining a relatively soft feel for good distance off the tee, you’ll be able to achieve fast ball speeds as well as a higher ball flight. Golfers can also choose between plain and TruTrack designs alongside the ever-popular Triple Track design, which puts three distinctive lines on the golf ball to assist with putting.
And for any golfers who are keen on a slightly firmer feeling golf ball, why not consider the Callaway Chrome Tour or Chrome Tour X? Both of which utilise the same technology as the Chrome Soft, but with more workability when it comes to shot shaping.
Titleist Pro V1 & Pro V1X – ideal for low handicappers
£50.00 per dozen, £14.50 per sleeve
Two sleeves for £26.00
The #1 golf ball at this year’s Masters tournament, the Pro V1 has for a long time been one of the top options available to golfers. An unparalleled combination of speed, spin and feel makes it one of the best premium options, perfect for the lower handicapper. Not many golf balls can replicate the spin that a Pro V1 can produce around the green, meaning you can play more aggressive shots into the green with the confidence that they will hold better. And for those who would prefer a higher flight and even more short game spin, then the Pro V1X is a fantastic option.
We are also now stocking both the Pro V1 and Pro V1X as logoed options in-store, with the West Malling club crest – perfect for any members who would like to showcase their home club.
