Are you playing the right golf ball for your game, or just the one with the best commercials? In this episode, I’m launching The Great Golf Ball Experiment—a head-to-head battle to find the perfect golf ball for the over-50 golfer with a mid-range swing.I’m tired of seeing "Tour Level" ball tests for golfers who swing 120 mph. This experiment is for the rest of us. I’ve selected four specific golf balls to put through the ringer, and today, I’m breaking down the "Why" behind my choices and what I'm looking for in the data.In this introduction to the experiment, you’ll hear:✅The Starting Four: Which balls made the cut for the test and why they were chosen for the 50+ game.✅The Scoring Metric: How I’m measuring performance (it’s not just about distance—it's about the "Mid-Range" precision from 150 yards and in).✅The Handicap Factor: Why a 25.2 handicap perspective is exactly what most amateur golfers actually need to hear.✅The Call to Action: How you can follow along with the live testing and share your own "weekend buddy" ball stories.The testing starts now. Follow the show to make sure you don't miss the reveal where we look at the numbers and crown a winner.Let's change our scores, and not our Swing.Resources & Community:Watch the Journey on YouTube:Mid-Range Swing - YouTubeJoin My Golf Group: Get my Mid-RangeSwing Email Go Behind the Scenes in theClubhouse: Mid-Range Swing BlogJoin the Conversation: Mid-Range Swing Facebook Group!#Over50Golf #GolfBallTest #MidRangeSwing #AmateurGolf
