Compare golf balls by fit,
not marketing.

Start with compression and swing speed. A ball that does not compress properly for your speed loses energy at impact regardless of brand or price. After compression, look at cover type (urethane for greenside spin, ionomer for durability and lower cost) and driver spin profile (lower spin reduces curvature for players who slice). The fitting quiz on this site checks every ball in the catalog against your specific numbers automatically.

Price tracks cover material, not fit. Urethane covers cost more to manufacture than ionomer, which is why tour balls run $50 to $60 per dozen while value balls run $20 to $30. A urethane ball is only worth that premium if your swing speed can compress it and your short game relies on spin. A player at 75 mph gets more distance and the same short-game performance from a well-fitted mid-range ball than from a mismatched $55 tour ball.

The fitting quiz on this site takes your swing speed, typical miss, short-game reliance, and conditions, then ranks every ball in the catalog by how well each one fits those inputs. It weighs compression match, cover type, and spin profile together. The result is a ranked list specific to your game, not a generic recommendation based on handicap or price tier. It takes about 60 seconds.
