John E Vawter Sr
01/25/2010 12:05 PM
It may be lack of back spin. Without enough spin the ball does not carry. The Wilson Smartcore is a very low spinning golf ball from tee to green which is great for driver distance and accuracy but if you have trouble keeping your irons in the air you may want to try a higher spin ball.

Great question. You are going to a ball that is easy to compress in order to pick up a few yards. There are several that should work well for you. Try the Wilson Staff 50 or Zip, the Callaway Big Bertha Diablo, the Nike Power Distance Soft, the Taylor Made Burner and Noodle+. All of these balls a designed to increase distance for low compression hitters. Any clubhead speed 80 or below should have success with any of these options.

Higher compression golf balls are best used by golfers with high club head speeds. For most golfers, balls with lower compressions typically will provide greater distance. The Smartcore is a relatively low compression ball that is a very good distance golf ball.

Jerry, the shelf life of the golf balls if stored in a climate controlled area is non existent. The balls will perform to the standards they were produced at the time. If you are playing an older golf ball you may notice differences from performance of newer balls but that is due to advances in technology not because the ball is "dead". Only storing balls out doors or in non controllable climates will you notice the balls only last around 2 years in most cases.

Golf balls certainly do have a shelf life. Ever been to the driving range, and no matter what club you hit, 4 iron to wedge, they all seem to travel the same distance? I play to a 10.3 index and hit 5 irons on average about 225yds. I hit range balls and I'm lucky to get 175 to 180 out of them. Same with a pitching wedge. Normally with Pro V1's, I have a range of 140 to 150, at the range, lucky to get 100 yds. out of them.

Comparing golf balls in a controlled climate - on a shelf in a closet - to balls at a driving range is ridiculous! Range balls are hit hundreds (if not thousands) of times, run thru a cleaning machine and hit again. They are likely to be hit off of various equipment, run over by mowers, etc. The comparisaon you make is foolish!
Low Handicap Golfer: Keith

I'm guessing Jake could very well be at a range with Limited Flight (LF) range balls. To that end, Keith is spot on.

Are not range balls manufactured differently for the extra abuse they receive? I factor in the difference from 'range distance' to 'course distance.' My course distance will a 'normal' ball is always about 10-30 yards better than the 'range rocks'. For fun, take a range ball onto course and compare. At PGA events, the range balls are new Titleists to match the course balls the pros may use. Pros switch out balls after they go 'out-of-round' which is determined by a Acu-Check tool. I think the

Golf balls stored in a controlled climate, (not outside in the elements, not stored in a 100 degree temperature,)will lose ONE YARD per year. That means, obviously, if you store your golf balls for ten years they will lose only ten yards of carry. Most of us could never tell the difference until it reaches that ten year mark.

This is a perfect question for a company that started out selling used golf balls! Really there is only one down side; the length of time the ball spent in the water. If it's one that has been in the water for months then it stands a much better chance to become "out of round" so that the performance of the golf ball is compromised. This is rare due to the fact that used golf ball retriever is a big time business and ponds/lakes have balls fished out of them

You may certainly request this. During checkout there is a space to add "additional comments." Please make your request there.

Storing golf balls at room temp in your house is ideal. In regards to storing golf balls in cold temperatures or hot temps for that matter, temperature will eventually have an effect on a golf ball but only after a long period of time. Moral of the story, try not to store golf balls in your trunk! I'm guilty of that one!
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Play Well,

I store most of mine in the bottom of the lake. When they are there for a long time, they don't hit very well anymore!

I have been told by PGA pros and watching Golf Channel that golf balls go bad.....depending on conditions they are stored in.
Out doors (like range balls) couple months.
Indoors...No issue.
Extremes make all the difference.
(Ever wondered why your hitting off the driving range is never as excellent as using your own ball??? The range balls are old and less forgiving).

Range balls are typically low compression in addition to being hit THOUSANDS of times. These are the two reasons distance suffers. Why Pros hit the range they use the identical balls they play with. Not typical range balls. I worked at the 5 Bethpage courses as a college student and this is how we rolled at the range.

there are balls that float now - they're easier to get back than the others...( no need for scuba gear)

Regarding the storage of golf balls room temperature is fine. If you are playing in conditions below 50 degrees. I recommend that you use a lower compression ball: Wilson Staff Zip/50, Srixon Soft Feel or perhaps even a woman's ball. In harsh/cold conditions a lower compression ball will compress easier -- thus hoefully giving better control. Also, on the way to the course, I keep a few balls by the floor heater to keep them warm. When on the course keep a few in your pants pocket so your b

It seems every year the ball manufacturers play around with ball specs. During the past year I've had success with the Top Flight Gamer as a ball with playability comparable to the Pro V1 & V1x a

Thank you for your comments, and you're right it certainly does feel that way. I can't tell you how many calls or emails we receive stating that just when you get used to playing a certain ball they change it! It's enough to drive your crazy! For a golf ball manufacturer it's about doing their best to keep their product relevant and fresh. That is why their product gets tweaked every 1-2 years.
While I feel your pain I don't think there is anything we can do about it!

For all these guys do to make sure we live free and without fear you should send them clubs and balls. Think of the promos you would get for doing what every American should do. Support our troops, they don't fight for themselves, they fight for us!

I agree - golfballs.com should add a "Send Golf Gear to the Heroes" contribution box to each order form so folks can donate as a way to say thank you. Overstock.com, for example, does that with the Wounded Warrior Project.

Take care of our Military. If I knew you helped them , not only in Iraq, but in all areas, what publicity that would be. I would make all my purchases with you, just for taking care of them.
