Golf Balls

Check out more on choosing a golf ball to suit your game, you also must find facts for the best golf balls. If you use the wrong golf balls your game can be as bad as using the wrong clubs. So even though you might feel more like a pro using Tiger Wood’s golf balls it doesn’t mean your game will be better.
Most golf balls have between 300 and 500 dimples, which have an average depth of about 0.010 inch. The lift and drag forces on a golf ball are very sensitive to dimple depth: a depth change of 0.001 inch can produce a radical change to the ball's trajectory and the overall distance it can fly. Advanced Golf Concepts recently introduced Thermal Distance, a cylindrical electric device for warming three golf balls at a time.
Among personalized golf gift items, I admit the golf balls are my favorite. Simple, standard 2-piece golf balls usually come in 18-packs and are relatively inexpensive. The cost of golf balls may seem small in comparison to the overall cost of pursuing the sport but the inexperienced golfer can go through a lot of golf balls in a very short space of time!
Callaway Golf’s Reaction Injection Molding (RIM) process creates an ideal and consistent cover thickness all the way around the Tour I Series Golf Balls at 20 thousandths of an inch. That compares to 35 thousandths of an inch in the original Rule 35 Golf Ball, and 30 thousandths of an inch in the HX Tour Series.
The last category I want to cover is custom golf balls. These balls go way beyond just slapping on a company logo. The reason why golf balls have dimples is a story of natural selection. Originally, golf balls were smooth; but golfers noticed that older balls that were beat up with nicks, bumps and slices in the cover seemed to fly farther.
You can use real golf balls or practice golf balls. When the thought to hollow out a golf ball came to me, I just picked up the first golf ball I found. Based on the average distance that is projected for the golf balls projected today, golf balls with dimples are capable of traveling up to four times the amount of distance that is achieved with smooth golf balls.
Today there is a rich variety of golf balls to suit the individual game and circumstance. Some offer control, some offer distance while others are suitable for practice only. Refinished, sometimes called reconditioned or refurbished, golf balls are different than used. Refinished golf balls may look new, but do not meet the manufacturer's original requirements. This is why you have to be careful when you see normally expensive golf balls selling used for a ridiculously low price.
Just remember the pro's have hit thousands of golf balls to develop and maintain that great swing. If you can’t make it to the driving range you can practice your swing with a golf ball.
