Best Golf Balls for Seniors
Some senior golfers break the mould, of course, but for most, swing speed gradually declines with the passing years. Many older golfers won’t be able to swing it as fast as they once did or hit it as far as they once could.
Regardless of ability or age, playing the best golf balls for your game is important. Thankfully most brands offer different models that have been specifically designed for different types of player, so what are the best golf balls for seniors and what is it about them that makes them a good choice for the older player? Swing speed is a major factor in determining distance, but the ball’s design and construction has a bearing too. As swing speed declines, many senior golfers find that they benefit from a ball with a lower compression. This allows them to still compress it a decent amount and maintain more of their former distance.
Others may not be able to launch the ball as high as they once did, which can make it harder to stop the ball as quickly on the greens. Many brands offer a ball designed to launch higher, and therefore come down steeper to help on that front. Vision often deteriorates with age too, and for some seniors, the modern breed of brighter-colored balls from Volvik and, increasingly, many other brands can be a real godsend, especially in gloomier light.
Bearing all of this in mind, below we have taken a look at some of the best golf balls for seniors currently on the market. We also recommend having a read of some of our other golf ball guides too, such as the best distance golf balls and best golf balls for slow swing speeds.
