As we look for ways to keep the ball rolling and leverage our Ball Lab to provide insights into the too-often overlooked golf ball category, we again wanted to step back and listen to what you have to say about the golf ball.
This 2021 iteration of our Golf Ball Survey is an opportunity for us to learn about your buying (and playing) habits. In addition to taking the survey, feel free to share additional thoughts on all things golf ball in the comment section.
Oh … for those of you who have been asking, yes, another robot ball test is in the works for this summer. Stay tuned for details.

From online ball fittings to personal experience (in the past year alone I have literally hit everything from wound balls (still have a couple dozen given to me in a shag bucket) to premiums balls such as ProV1/V1x, TP5, Snell, etc.) and while I love the feel of premium balls I am not sure I am where using such would enough strokes off my game to warrant purchasing such. The most fun golf ball I’ve used is a cheap Wilson 2pc ball (cut one in two to see) that is sold in 2doz size balls at Walmart. My wife saw them on clearance for $3 a bag and was another 50% off at the counter. She got them for roughly 6cents apiece. Funny thing is they fly well, roll well, don’t scuff up quick and seem to almost impossible to lose. Something is relaxing when you can do just as well with a $0.06 ball as you can with a $4.00 ball….

If you play a course with firm greens, the cheap 2 pc balls can make the game frustrating when balls won’t hold the green. For what many of us spend on golf annually, playing a urethane ball that leads to better scores is a small investment.
