When it Comes to Distance, Not All Balls are Created Equal

whats-your-distance-ball-1.png
When most golfers walk up to the tee box they envision a perfect shot that travels long and straight, eventually coming to rest in the middle of the fairway. But sometimes, despite our best laid plans, the ball doesn’t make it past the front tee box! If you’re looking for a ball that will maximize distance, here are a few suggestions to help you gain some yards off the tee and with any club in the bag.

Which Golf Balls Are Best For Distance?

  1. Callaway Superhot: The focus of this ball is distance. The Superhot’s low-drag aerodynamics and resilient core can help golfers who struggle getting off the tee.

  2. Titleist Velocity: This offering from Titleist delivers extra pop thanks to its spherically tiled 328 tetrahedral dimple design, which promotes an ideal penetrating trajectory with a shallower angle of descent for massive distance and roll. A firmer, resilient core will help you pick up some yards with every club in your bag.

  3. Nike hyperflight: Have you heard about the Hyperflight? This three-piece ball has a soft-compression core for hyper distance with enhanced speed. If you need help getting that optimum launch with the driver, try the Nike Hyperflight.  

  4. TaylorMade Aeroburner Pro:  This 3-piece ball absolutely explodes off the face faster and stays in the air longer. The Speed comes from TaylorMade’s high-energy REACT core that stores and releases energy with incredible efficiency.

  5. Nike RZN Red: The RZN Red has excellent feel and is designed to reduce excess spin. Featuring materials that are lighter and faster than other models it promotes distance and a more consistent, stable ball flight. This is great for golfers who have swing speeds under 90mph

Should Equipment Changes Be Made Public in PGA Tour Events?

Should equipment changes be noted publicly before a player tees it up in a PGA Tour event? While that may sound crazy, it is common practice in horse racing. Some bettors want all the information they can get. With gambling now a big part of sports, I don’t think it’s a crazy idea. Already this year we saw Collin Morikawa (TaylorMade TP5x) winning an event with a putter borrowed from another player. Chris Gotterup (Bridgestone Tour B X with Mindset) won two tournaments this year after changing ball. And remember when Scottie Scheffler (Titleist Pro V1) went on a tear changing to a blade putter to a mallet putter?

Genesis Invitational Gives Us The Reality Of Sports

I’ve written this before and I’m repeating it because it never ceases to amaze me how televised sports is the ultimate reality show, the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat, as the now-defunct ABC Wild Word of Sports used as its intro. On the final hole of the Pebble Beach Open, Jacob Bridgeman (TaylorMade TP5x) was hitting a shot off of pebbles on the beach on the 18th hole. His ball ended up in the ocean and resulted in a bogey, tying him for eighth place when he was close enough starting the hole for a much better finish. I thought his spirits were crushed and dismissed him for the Genesis Invitational. So what does he do? Goes on a tear and headed into the final day, chasing a tournament record score. But he nearly frittered away the win, coming undone on the back half of the back nine and eking out a single stroke victory, and only because he parred a four-foot putt that must have seemed much longer because of the pressure. That’s drama, real drama, not manufactured reality. He won the event for the first time in his 66th tournament on the PGA Tour and only 65 days after marrying.

It's Time To Talk About Tiger Woods Again

Some thoughts on the world of golf with the Masters less than eight weeks away: When Tiger Woods (Bridgestone Tour B XS) speaks, we all listen. As the host of the Genesis Invitational this week, Woods held his annual address about his health, career, playing in the Masters and the PGA Tour at large. Woods is gradually returning to swinging his clubs from his latest back surgery last fall, which naturally had reporters asking him about his playing status. He did not specify when he will return to playing again, yet he tersely and emphatically did not rule out playing in the Masters. “No,” he said. Woods has always tried to play in the Masters, no matter his physical condition.
