The choice of a golf ball, it seems, is not as simple as picking the shiniest one in the shop.
Chris Fry broke down the different types of balls and when best to use them.
Each type of ball, be it the wind ball, fireball, or earth ball, is designed with a specific player and playing style in mind.
So, next time you’re out shopping for golf balls, remember – it’s not just about the aesthetics, but also about how well the ball complements your playing style.

Fireball but distance is the wind ball for sure earthball like is more of the tournament caliber golf ball those guys that maybe aren’t quite close to scratch and that’s what I’ll fit them into if they want to say that they want more control of the golf ball they want to
Shape it a little bit better because what that Ball’s going to do with the dimple pattern and the way it’s built is it’s going to react a little bit more off the club face in terms of the spin but the uh the wind for those guys that
Just want plain distance isn’t going to react with much side spin so you’re going to hit it a little bit straighter but it’s also going to feel a little bit more solid it’s going to be a little bit more firmer and it’s going to rock it off the club face especially for those
Slower Club head uh speed guys
