Wilson Staff - Px3 Soft Spin

Having taken the market by storm with its super-soft Dx2 Soft ball, Wilson is leading the way in low-compression balls by launching the Wilson Staff Px3 Soft Spin ball - a 3-piece ball with the world’s first zero compression core. The zero compression core fuels the softest feel of any ball on the market, as well as a low spin-rate off the driver for straighter tee shots.

TaylorMade - TP Black

The Tour Preferred Black is a three-piece ball designed for lower spin players who want soft feel, fast ball speed, increased distance and tour-calibre spin. The 360-dimple pattern promotes a mid-to-high flight, and also incorporates TaylorMade's proprietary Low-Drag Performance (LDP) aerodynamics to promote improved distance on the most common driver mis-hits, which occur on the upper portion of the clubface.

Titleist - Pro V1

The Pro V1 just doesn’t seem to be even remotely close to losing its tag as the ‘No.1 ball in golf’. This year, an incredible 60.9% of players teed up at Royal Birkdale playing a Pro V1, that’s 95 players in total. This year, the ball has 131 wins in its locker, more than five times its nearest rival. The Pro V1x (pictured) is for players with faster swing speeds.

Cost Price £11.50 (for 3)

Callaway Golf - Tour ix

The Tour iX and the Tour i are, according to Callaway, the most technologically advanced tour balls ever made, incorporating perimeter weighting to increase the ball’s MOI. Innovative 4-piece inertia technology utilises a tungsten-infused outer core to shift weight away from the centre of the ball, reducing driver spin for maximum distance and straighter shots, and a softer inner core for unparalleled tour feel.

Nike Golf - One Platinum

Reengineered for longer distance, enhanced control and workability. Its progressive density core provides a superior feel and longer distance while an optimised inner cover enhances mid-iron control and workability.

The ball, as used by Tiger Woods, has a newly designed 378 dimple pattern with redesigned aerodynamics for added carry and longer distance.

Srixon - AD333/Z-URS

Now firmly established as a serious force to be reckoned with in the golf balls market, Srixon is certainly on the up. Last year, in fact, the brand’s AD333 ball was Britain’s best-selling two-piece ball in 2007. The Z-URS is a tour-style players’ ball with drop-and-stop characteristics. Look out for new Srixon balls in the very near future.
