Srixon Golf Ball Review

By Eric Cornelison

Specs

The Srixon Trispeed golf ball is one of the top-rated balls on the market, with several PGA Tour players playing or switching to it. This three-piece ball allows you to get it into air easily and get better carry distance because of the 333 dimples, allowing for the lift you need. The ball was developed for golfers of any swing speed, giving them a softer feel when making contact. It is priced at $25 a dozen as of September 2009.

Perks

The aerodynamics of this ball allow it to carry farther than some of the other brands, and it shoots up quickly, getting out of some tough lies. This softer ball feels better on contact.

Sacrifices

This softer ball might scar a little easier than ones with a tougher exterior, and the quick lift does not always give you the distance you want in windy conditions. It's a little hard for the average golfer to keep low.

Bottom Line

It's a good ball for the price and it helps give you good distance unless you are in windy conditions. The feel is good, and you get a softer landing. You just have to know what you are looking for in a ball.

How to Give Your Golf Clubs a Tuneup
by John D. Tudor
During the course of a year, an avid golfer's clubs are swung anywhere between 18,000 and 20,000 times, carried or hauled on a golf cart for about 3,000 miles, roughly handled another 1,000 times, tossed about the trunk of a car for over 20,000 miles and swung in a variety of less-than-perfect situations involving low-hanging branches, rocks and hardpan. Obviously, the stress and strain a golf club endures goes far beyond that for which it's designed, so now is the perfect time to examine your woods and irons and, if necessary, get them back into playing shape.
