In the game of golf, golf balls are struck by clubs with the objective of putting the ball in a hole in as few strokes (shots) as possible. At the beginning of each hole, a ball may be placed upon a tee to steady the ball and help the golfer achieve more loft on his shot. Off of the tee box, a player must strike the ball as it lies on the ground. Once a golfer reaches the green, he may choose to utilize a putter, a club with a flat club-face, to roll the ball towards the hole.
In the beginning of golf, in early 1800’s, golf balls were covered with leather and stuffed with goose feathers. By the mid-1800’s, a harder ball was developed using gutta-percha packing material, commonly found in tree milk. Through time, the bramble ball was developed, with a hard dimpled cover. At the turn of the century a rubber ball was developed by the B.F. Goodrich Company, with hard rubber core wound by rubber threads and covered by a synthetic material.
Today, there are primarily two types of golf balls used in the game: the balata ball and the surlyn ball. Regardless of the type of ball used, the United States Golf Association (USGA) has regulated conformity among all balls to be played. The USGA ruled that all balls must be round, no larger than 1.68” in diameter, and may not be heavier than 1.62 oz.
The balata ball is also known as a three-piece ball. It contains a hard rubber core, is wound by rubber bands and has a cover made of a synthetic material called balata. Balata is essentially a soft cover that many advanced golfers believe make it easier for them to shape their shots. The drawback to this softer cover is that it is not very resistant to nicks and cuts throughout repeated use.
The two-piece ball contains a larger rubber core, and a thick cover of a synthetic material called surlyn. Although this harder cover may make it more difficult to shape shots, and it may create more bounce, it is more durable than the balata ball. It is also thought that it is more difficult to achieve a desired backspin on the ball with a two-piece ball.
The major manufacturers of golf balls are Titleist, Dunlop, MaxFli, Top Flight, Pinnacle and Precept. Golf balls are generally packaged in boxes of three called sleeves. Retailers will typically sell boxes of multiple sleeves of balls, usually in quantities of 15-18. A box of golf balls normally retails between $20 and $50, depending on the maker and brand.
There are some basic elements of the golf swing that the golfer should use as a mental checklist when taking a shot. The first element is the body’s alignment toward the target. Stand five to ten feet behind the ball, with the ball directly between your body and the desired target. Locate guidance targets on the ground (leaves, blades of grass, dirt, etc.) inches in front and behind the golf ball that should be on a direct line with where you are standing and the target. Keep your eyes on those ground targets as you approach the ball.
Align the club-face behind the ball, with the center of the club-face on a direct line between the two ground targets you have selected. Grip the club with just enough tension to keep it from slipping in your hands throughout the course of the golf swing. Align your feet on a parallel plain with your ground targets, shoulder width apart, and the knees slightly bent. The front foot should be pointed slightly outward, toward the target, to allow your hips to flow freely through the swing.
Tilt your torso slightly towards the ball while keeping your back straight. The arms should now hang freely in front of the body to grip the club. The shoulders should be parallel with the ground targets and the toes, and your head should be tilted downward with your eyes on the ball. These motions described are known as the set-up, or addressing the ball.
You are ready to begin the golf swing. Keeping your back elbow tucked as closely to your ribs as possible, slowly take the club back on a straight line along the plain of the ground targets. Keep your front elbow locked throughout the back swing and never take your eyes off the ball. This motion should naturally tuck your chin into your front shoulder. Hips should remain still and slightly tilted, while the front knee will turn inward. At the apex of the back swing, allow your wrists to break slightly.
Bring the club downward toward the ball, uncoiling the wrists, and shifting your weight onto your front foot. You should attempt to generate force and speed on your down swing, while never take the club-face off of the target line. Upon making contact with the ball, the club-face should strike the ground as it moves through, taking a divot from the ground in the area past where the ball was lying, and through your second ground target.
Finish the golf swing with a nice, high follow through of the club. Your hips should be turned toward the target. Your weight should have shifted, and should now be firmly on your right foot. Smile and watch the ball fly toward the target.
