Have you ever wanted to know the difference between a 2-piece and a 3-piece golf ball? Ever wonder why there are so many different options to choose from? Why do manufacturers offer different golf ball dimple patterns?

You’re in luck.

We recently completed a golf ball deep dive series on the Golf Unfiltered TikTok page, where we cover all of these topics (and more). Below you’ll find all six of the videos, along with a brief summary of what’s captured in each.

Part 2: What is a 2-Piece Golf Ball?

The second video in the series deconstructs the different golf ball layer types, specifically in defining a two-piece golf ball. Recommended golfer type for this golf ball option is also explained.

The third video in the series shifts to explaining 3-piece golf ball construction, along with the golfer handicap recommendations on who will benefit the most from playing one.

Part 4: What is a 4-piece golf ball?

Our fourth video dives deeper into golf ball construction, including the benefits of playing a 4-piece golf ball (and even a 5-piece ball!). Are you good enough of a golfer to play this ball type? Does it even matter? Watch to find out!

Part 5: Why do golf balls have dimples on the cover?

The fifth video in our series covers the different golf ball dimple pattern types, including the range of dimple volume and their purpose. What would happen if golf balls didn’t have dimples? Why are there so many on the cover?

Part 6: Understanding the golf ball cover

The sixth video in our series describes the function and benefits of different golf ball cover materials, including urethane and surlyn. What are the differences and how are they similar? Which cover type should you play? Watch more to find out!

Part 7: Golf ball price points

The final video in our series shifts to the different price points for golf balls. Do we really have to pay top-dollar to play good golf balls? Why do some cost so much while others don’t? We cover all of this, and more, in the video above.
