Nike Karma 50 Compression Golf Balls

The Karma is Nike's first woman's ball, but the company has tried to focus on the benefits for all golfers with slower swing speeds. The 50 compression will add distance and a higher trajectory for slower swingers who struggle to get the ball in the air.

Low-compression balls help slower swingers get the ball in the air. The Karma, like the Wilson Staff 50, targets a large population of golfers with a resilient cover and workable feel around the greens.

The Karma targets a very specific type of golfer such as short hitters and slow swingers, whose primary concern is adding distance without need for spin and green-side control.

Because most players who will benefit from the Karma don't need more spin, it has few downsides. The Karma will help you have a more predictable trajectory into greens, and your control will benefit.

The Karma retails for $28.99 as of October 2009, but various online retailers sell a dozen for $14.95.
