Can you really not compress a firm golf ball at 80 MPH?
I tested 8 golf balls ranging from 38 to 98 compression to find out if slower swing speed golfers actually lose distance with firmer balls — or if that’s just a myth.
In this video I put budget, mid-range and premium golf balls through controlled launch monitor testing at 80–85 mph clubhead speed. We analyse ball speed, smash factor, launch angle, spin rate and carry distance to see whether compression is truly the defining factor for slower swing speed players.
The results may surprise you.
