Are you using the right ball for your swing speed? Ball fitting is often overlooked nowadays and yet what is the only thing you use for every golf shot? The ball!
Some golfers may think that they are not good enough to be fitted for a golf ball and they couldn't be more wrong. An 18 handicap golfer would save more shots with the correct ball than a Tour Pro would.
The new Speed Regime balls from Callaway are designed with swing speed in mind having three balls in the range. The SR1 ball is designed for people who would use a regular shaft, the SR2 ball is designed for golfers who would use a stiff shaft and the SR3 ball is designed for stronger players with fast swing speeds.
All three balls are tour quality and the right ball will make a huge difference to your game! Come in store for more info and to get the right ball for you.
