The round white thing...

Since the game began in the 15th century, there is one thing that has never changed – the ball being the only piece of equipment used on every shot. Despite this, it still gets a raw deal with some golfers viewing it as less important than the clubs used to hit it. So, we decided to take a look back and see how modern golf balls compare to those of yesteryear.

Srixon's AD333 (2019) golf ball

In the beginning

Feathery balls reigned supreme for over 200 years in the early days of golf, but even they are relatively new compared to the original hairy balls (guess what they were stuffed with!).

It's hard to imagine what it would be like playing with those balls these days, and even the later-developed Gutty and Haskell balls left golfers with little-to-no room for error.

Where we are today

The ability to make a ball that was both incredibly soft and goes for miles was simply not possible 100 years ago. However, that's exactly what Srixon has done in the new AD333 thanks to FastLayer technology - you can learn more via the link below.

There is also a yellow option that provides an element of personalisation - a little addition that was not possible in days gone by.

Find your sole mate

See what we did there? Finding your sole-mate is no easy task and, yet, as our shoes are the only part of our body that stays in constant contact with the ground during the golf swing (well they should do anyway!), getting it right is crucial for both performance and comfort.

FootJoy UltraFIT Boa shoes

Let those stats sink in for a moment or two. Do they surprise you?

If you're wondering whether your shoes are the right size, here are some tell-tale signs to look out for:

Creasing on the upper
Wear on the inside heel
Stretching around the side

Just because you wear certain sized trainers or smart shoes doesn't mean your golf shoes will follow suit, and that's why we're here to help.

Come in to see us and we'll make sure that you not only walk away with the correct size but also the model that gives you what you want, whether it's stability, comfort or a pair that simply look great - like FootJoy's UltraFIT Boa above.
