Two Piece Distance Golf Balls - A Look At The Market
A
two piece constuction is the most common found in the "everyday" golf ball.
They are developed and marketed towards recreational golfers (mid to high handicappers)
with a focus on durability and maximum distance.
To this end they forgo some of the extra spin which talented golfers require
in a ball for increased shot-making ability.
The two piece ball comprises of a a single solid sphere (the core) which is
normally constructed out of a high-energy hard plastic like rubber which is
then enclosed inside a tough cover like Surlyn or Ionomer that has an emphasis
on durability.
The end result is a firm ball that is virtually indestructable, has great distance
properties but has limited feel.
Consequently, they are perfect for the recreational golfer who wants more distance
off the tee and is willing to sacrifice a little feel in their short game for
this extra length.
