What is the deal with plastic golf balls?

Question

when i hit these balls.they go left or right and sometimes in the middle.does that mean when i hit a golf ball it will do the same thing?or do these balls just do that?

Answer 1

dont use plastic practice balls, use the foam ones they make. the give u an accurate measurement of how well you r hitting

Answer 2

dude why are you using plastic golf balls??

get the real ones.

Answer 3

They're so easily affected by wind that it's hard to tell if it was a good hit or not. In theory, though, I think they're supposed to tell you if you're hitting it straight or not.

Answer 4

Don't use foam, plastic or any other practice ball like that. Invest in the Point 3 Practice ball from AlmostGOLF. They are a bit more pricey (36 for $29.99) but they feel like a real ball off the club face. Also, they only fly 1/3 rd the distance, and (usually) won't break windows or dent cars (they sound soft, but they really do feel like a real golf ball). I bought them not to long ago and I can tell my game has slightly improved.

Answer 5

i believe the plastic isn't working out too good since its very light compared to the hard material real golf balls are made of. it will make your game alot harder using plastic ones
