Hilarious? Buy golf balls to collect cob webs is just not what you might like. Especially when your store room is packed and full of others. You might be better off selling them cheap at eBay or even give it to your golfing buddy who might need them.

Do not laugh too much because you might be one of them. I will not be surprised if thousands of golfers have had the same experience buying golf balls and finding that they are not as good as they thought they were. In the end, the golf balls were left out in the cold sitting in their store room.

How many times did we leave it to trial and error and testing it out on the fairways? Yes, it is fun testing out a golf ball but definitely not fun when you spend $40 a dozen and only use one. What about the rest? Yes, cob web collectors in your store room!

It is common nowadays to spend on cheaper used golf balls before trying out the new ones. You will spend less money but still shelling the same amount of time testing one after another. Unless you are wearing your lucky red underwear, you might need to try 5 to 6 golf balls before finding one that you really do well in. That means 24 hours of golf ball testing spread out over a few weekends. Not forgetting the extra few games to reconfirm your analysis, it might take a month.

Some read golf ball reviews before buying the golf balls. Nothing wrong about that and in fact, golf ball reviews are rather good for helping you choose. But still, there are many unknown areas which is left unexplored in these reviews. Statistics like the reviewer's handicap and knowledge of the game, profile and swing characteristics, game play etc are not known at all. Even the ground conditions and weather play a big part of the results. The only time a golf ball review can adequately choose a golf ball for you is when the player has exactly the same player profile as you. Highly unlikely? Yes definitely.

So what is the best way around that? To go through the hassle, i recommend spending a few hours reading and understanding all parts of the golf ball and all aspects of your golf game. That is when player profile and golf ball match.

If you combine cheap golf balls into the above recommendation, you will get a best way to save big money and storage space in your store room. Select the proper golf balls that fits your golf game and you will improve your score like never before.
