PXG

The high-end equipment brand’s first entrée into the golf-ball market actually involved some of the company’s first product research. The design team only recently decided to launch a golf ball and only a single model at that.

PXG’s team wants to simplify your choice by suggesting that balls designed for slightly slower swing speeds are more similar to so-called “faster-speed” balls than they are different. That is, all players benefit from low spin off the tee and increased short-game spin. This three-layer ball combines a firmer mantle and higher-compression core (for distance) with a slightly thicker, softer urethane cover (for short-game spin).
