Balance Those Balls!
Posted January 1st, 2005 by Erik J. Barzeski
How much does a good ol' set of balanced balls matter? Quite a bit, it turns out!
This lengthy article at Golf Club Review talks about the value of a spin-balanced golf ball.
A player with a poor stroke may never realize much benefit from the use of balanced balls on the green, but a good putter should be able to reduce his handicap by close to a stroke with careful and sustained use of balance-oriented balls. If he is also adept at using the alignment lines on the ball to aim his putts, he may save substantially more than a stroke a round.
Further reading reveals that Golf Club Review found disparities in long irons, short irons, and driver shots as well. Turns out that balancing a ball is important for more than putting!
