Originally posted by Ruger: ShortFatHokie - do you know why they stopped indicating the compression of balls? Most golf balls used to show 80, 90 or 100. I always played a 100 compression during the summer months and a 90 when it was cooler. Just curious why they stopped.
I think it is because the technology has changed quite a bit and many very good balls are now around 60 - 80 compression if the same measure was used. Not very many "manly" men want to know they are hitting 60 compression balls...
Pro V1...84 to 96 Pro V1x...95 to 105 NXT...66 to 72 NXT Tour...76 to 82 DT So/Lo...66 to 74
