How do I figure out what kind of golf ball is perfect for me?

If you have to ask, use second hand one. It shouldn't make any different and it's cheaper.

most ball boxes will say what you need. ex. titleist dt solo are for average hitters who want more control over the ball (softer core). the pro v1 have a soft and fast core that allows for less control and more distance. i used to use the dts and would hit my dirves about 220 yards- switched to nxt tour and now am hammering out 230-240 yard drives. (and for a 16 yr old girl that ain't bad)

Depends on what you are looking for in a golf ball. Higher handicap players tend to play a firmer ball, such as the Titleist So/Lo which gives you distance as well as some spin. Lower handicap players play a much softer ball that gives them feel off of short irons and distance off the tee, such as a Titleist Pro V1. Hope this helps!
Tell a golf professional about your game and ask for suggestions. Since that knowledge may cost you, go to a golf equipment retailer and ask the staff. Finding the right ball for your game can save 2-3 strokes a round!
find out what your swing speed is.



mine is under 100 ,, so i use a softer less compression two piece ball..



once i did i was able to get an extra 20 yards of the tee
I prefer Titleist. It depends on your ability and how much you are willing to spend. The Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x are both excellent, but a little pricey. Titeist does make several lesser expensive balls.
the best way is to try different balls in your price range and find out which ball fells best and reacts best to your game. i know it sounds bad and expensive but if you can notice much of difference between balls then it is something you need to do. Ball technology has dramatically improved the majority of peoples game, distance being one big factor. i wouldn't be surprised if there are restrictions put on balls for the pros in the near future, if not golf courses will just keep getting longer
There are 2 major factors that play into what golf ball you should be using.



1. The ball speed



2. The launch angle



You need to go somewhere like Golfsmith or club fitter to have them get you these numbers through a launch monitor. Most of these places will charge you a small fee to get these numbers for you.



The general rule is...



If you have a slow ball speed you'll want a higher launch angle, which equates to needing a golf ball that will generate a faster spin rate. You need more spin so the ball climbs higher and stays in the air longer.



If you have a high ball speed you'll want a lower launch angle, which equates to needing a golf ball that will generate a slower spin rate. With a faster ball speed you want the ball to bore through the air and not spin as much. Too much spin on high ball speed will create a ballooning affect and loose distance.
It's all about club head speed, and accuracy. "If you lose a lot of balls, buy cheap or second hand balls." If you can keep you ball in play, any ball will do.
Find out what kind of hitter you are. If you like to hit the ball as hard as you can just to get distance than go for a distance ball. The best I have found out there are the Balata high spin balls. They are good for distance and of course spin. It all depends on you.
