Best balls for winter

Is there a better feeling in golf than standing there with a wedge in hand and watching your ball stop dead next to the flag? It makes you feel like a Tour player, but there’s nothing in the rulebook to stop you hitting those shots consistently!

We’re not saying it’s easy, but this is the time of year when it’s easiest. Why? Well, as you can see in the slider images above, winter greens tend to be softer and that means your pitches will stop much quicker than in the summer months. Just look at how much closer to the hole they're landing the ball in winter compared with summer!

With all this said, you need to have control over your ball. The awesome Wilson Staff Model & Staff Model RAW golf balls are designed with high wedge spin in mind for exactly this purpose. Plus, the four purpose-built layers means that you’ll get the same feeling as Tour players during the shot as well as when you’re watching it nestle in close to the hole.

Oh and don't forget about the RAW version, which is actually unpainted to help get you even more dialled-in. The thought here is that by removing the uneven paint cover from the ball, you'll enjoy more reliable spin and therefore shots that boast a tighter dispersion. Sounds good to us!
