Nike One Golf Balls For The Better Amateur

Of all the Nike golf balls I have tested, one stands out. That’s a bit of a pun really, because the one that stands out is Nike ONE. I wouldn’t recommend a particular golf ball to you just because it’s played by so many players on the pro tour, including Tiger Woods. The pros have their own way of playing, and you have yours, and what you really need is golf ball that enhances your own particular skills.

What Is the Nike One

The ball has a speedy core with three different covers. Each of the covers has a specific function, from transferring energy to the core to allowing high spin and maximum control on the greens. It is designed to do what the golfer wants it to do, irrespective of the type of shot being played. In this respect it is excellent. It does the job of three different balls!

The Golf Ball You Use Makes A Difference

I know what you are thinking. I bet you think that a better swing, or even a better set of golf clubs, is what you really need. You know what – you are right. A better swing will help you more than you could imagine, and clubs definitely make a difference. But how about the ball? Have you really thought how much difference a golf ball could make?

Nike One Black And Gold Golf Balls

There are three types of Nike One golf balls. Nike Golf said the One Black is designed for maximum distance and reduced spin for the player who places a premium on low-spin and high launch conditions, and prefers a crisp feel with more penetrating trajectory. The Gold Nike ball is designed for players who like to shape shots and optimize control around the greens. Both balls are priced at a very high $54 per dozen.

Nike Platinum One Golf Ball

The Platinum is designed to offer a higher trajectory and lower spin rate off today's maxi-drivers. This is the ball Tiger place with. In fact, Tiger encouraged the director of product development to set to work on a new, higher-trajectory version of the Nike One.

Nike is stated that Tigers distance as gone up 7 yards with this ball, while his greens in regulation and scoring have also improved. We are not Tiger Woods, but interesting to know those stats. Again, this ball is priced very high, and is best for the low single digit handicapper.

Who Should Use The Nike One Golf Ball

Nike provide a wide range to meet the needs of golfers of all abilities, from the rank rookie to the top professional. If you have reached the stage of the game that you can swing consistently, and can control your spin to some extent, I suggest you try Nike One golf balls.

Alternatives Balls Available

I certainly would not recommend Nike One to a rookie, or even a player with a golf handicap of more than fourteen or so. At that stage you are still learning how to swing (aren’t we all!), and get some spin control. You should try one of the other Nike balls, like the Nike Juice that gives good straight distance with low to medium clubhead speeds.

If you are past that stage I really do believe that the Nike One gives you greater length, but even more importantly, gives you a high degree of spin control. It will be very fast in the air, but you can stop that ball dead in the middle of the green! What more do you want? What more can I say?
