Balls designed for higher handicap golfers generally have harder covers that result in lower spin rates with irons and drivers. Balls designed for low handicap golfers tend to offer your more control and spin.

Trajectory is a term used to describe the flight characteristics of a golf shot. It considers the height of the shot as well as it's launch and landing characteristics.
Feel is a term that considers the firmness or compression of the golf ball. Typically the softer the golf ball feels, the lower the compression rating. A general rule of thumb about golf ball compression is that players with a lower swing speed should use a lower compression ball to take advantage of the added spring affect.
9 iron spin is regarding the backward rotation of the golf ball in flight or the measured rate of that rotation. Most golfers think of backspin more in relation to shorter irons and wedges. Backspin is what causes some wedge shots to "back up" on the green, or roll backwards after hitting the green.

This ball is good off the tee, but it peels like an onion if the swing speed on your irons is over 80 mph.

I have been playing golf for over 40 years, used every hot ball that has come out. Been a pro v-1 user for past few years. I decided to use the Nike Vapor Speed after reading the Golf Digest article on ball selection a few months ago. What a great surprise....I hit it farther, it held the greens well, and it shows very little wear. Half the price too!
