I believe Ionomer is the generally used as a casing. Urethane and Surlyn are used for covers. Urethane has a much softer feel and spins a lot more. Surlyn is harder and gives you less spin and longer distance. If you have trouble slicing/hooking, a Surlyn covered ball may work better for you. The Urethane will give more spin and stop power around the green.

To compare, a Pro V1 has a Urethane cover while a Bridgestone e6+ has a Surlyn cover.

There's a good article in one of the golf magazines this month on wedges and spin. They cover this topic.

      Ah.. my regular weekend league. Lol Scrambles are fine. Usually there's charity involved. So there's that. There are much worse events Im forced to attend twice a year.

      Does Justin Thomas have a massively underrated short game? It seems every time I look up he's hitting it close from a tough lie after short siding himself. What masterful touch

      I freaking hate them. Too expensive, cheaters, food sucks, too dependent on weather, I keep telling myself never do it again but I'm a dummy

      Who Else Hates Scrambles?

      I enjoyed the A-B-C-D scramble we did at Kittyhawk before it shut down. Yes. The point was to meet the other members and get the season kicked off. Nobody took it too seriously. At least with that group, cheating wasn't a big issue.  As the D part of A-B-C-D, I enjoyed getting to play with one of the Association's top players. One year I played with the city champ. Man could he hit a ball.  It probably isn't something I'd want to do more than once a year, but it has its place.
