What compression should my golf ball be?
A 70 compression ball should be used by a golfer whose club head speed with their driver is 70 mph, an 80 compression ball should be used by a golfer with an 80 mph club head speed, 90 with 90 and 100 with 100. In addition, keep in mind that temperature affects golf ball compression.
What compression is a Pro V1 golf ball?
around 90
The three-piece Pro V1 still has a compression around 90 and its 352-dimple cover pattern helps to produce lower-spinning, lower-flying shots off the tee and with long irons.
Is a 60 compression golf ball good?
The Ionomer cover is durable but provides a good feel, and distance is very good for slow swing speeds. With a compression rating of 60, it responds well to a slower golf swing. And the dimple pattern helps get the ball airborne with a good, straight flight.
Do lower compression golf balls go further?
Low compression golf balls are easier to compress at impact with the driver and that means there is a greater energy released on the ball. This in turn sees the ball travel farther than golf balls with a higher compression.
What is Pro V1 compression?
The Titleist Pro V1 has a compression of over 100 (our robot golf ball test measured it at 101.8), while the Titleist Pro V1x has a compression of 108.4, making it the firmest golf ball in our entire test. That’s because they’re designed for tour players with swing speeds typically in the range of 110-130mph.
What compression is Titleist Tour soft?

What is the best low compression golf ball?

How do I select golf ball compression?
Choose a golf ball with a 100 compression rating if you normally drive the ball more than 275 yards off the tee and have a fast club head speed. You will be able to maximize the distance for all of your shots, but will see reduced range off the tee if the club head speed is not fast enough to achieve the full spring effect.
Do golf balls lose compression?
A golf ball can lose compression but not for awhile. In general, golf balls should last a long time, unless you keep your golf balls in extreme conditions like in a freezer or a hot car compartment.
Does golf ball compression matter?
In a word, yes. Compression may be the most important factor to look at when choosing a golf ball. Too hard for your swing speed and it won’t compress enough to create a rebound effect, too soft and it will be a waste of the energy generated from your swing. Ball manufacturers measure this on a number scale usually ranging from 70-110.
