Best Golf Balls 2021

How to choose the best golf balls?

The golf ball market has become more diverse than ever before. The key players have been launching new versions of their premium models for the new season, along with a number of other newcomers and next-generation models. At the top end it’s all about getting the ball’s multiple layers to work together better than ever before.

Picking out the ball that’s right for you can be tricky, especially when brands seek to cram as much all-round performance as possible into their models. We’ve tested more balls than ever before this season to help you out. The latest premium models from the biggest brands are joined by a number of newcomers and next-generation models that will no doubt become serious contenders in the years to come.

Are you looking for a Soft or firm golf ball?

Practicing with the same golf ball you'll use in competition will help you get a better feel for your short game. Alternative versions of the top premium golf balls spin somewhat less for golfers who desire a firmer feel or more control off the tee. To find your favourite, try both from various distances.

What about the Cover material?

Balls with urethane covers have the best spin control and feel, but they are more expensive. Experiment to discover if the difference is significant enough to justify the extra expense, or if the best mid-price golf balls are a better option.

Does Long game or short game make a difference to the choice of ball?

Ball fitting messages differ from one brand to the next. Would a model from our best distance golf balls page be most beneficial to you? Alternatively, if you place a high value on feel, our best soft feel golf balls guide would be a good place to start.
