2 piece vs 3 piece ball accuracy

[bigbear43]

Just wondering what everyone's thoughts where on this. The premium balls v1, zstar, pentra etc are designed to spin on greenside approaches. Does this tendency to spin affect driver accuracy, slices, hooks etc on less than perfect drives and advancement shots? Would a two peice ball be better suited, and more accurate for golfers whose swings are not perfect, or do you all see about the same accuracy etc  and the only difference between ball construction is on greenside control

A 2-piece ball is going to give you less sidespin, so yes, they would be more accurate for people with flawed swings.

As another option, you could go with a mid range 3 piece ball that does not have a urethane cover. They are usually in the $20 - $30 range.  These will usually have better spin around the greens than 2 piece balls but should still hit straight with the driver.

Which balls, Specifically??

[DarkPrince]

Titleist NXT/NXT Tour, Nike Vapor Speed, Callaway HX Bite, Callaway Diablo Tour, Top Flite Gamer/Gamer V2, Srixon Trispeed/Trispeed Tour, Bridgestone E6/E7, and I think there might be a few others. Some tour balls are 3 piece, but are out of the $20-35 price range.

edit: those are all the 3 piece balls I could think of, didn't notice that he was talking about non-urethane :P

No, man that's what I was looking for! Thanks! I think I'm going to upgrade this season from soft balls and play Gamer V2's. Heard a ton of great things about the Gamer V2's. Will I see a major difference or a difference at all if I make that change? I'm playing super cheap balls right now like DT so/lo DT Carry etc...
