As a good player golfers are often inclined to ask me what ball I play, as if there’s some secret to the choice! In truth, I tell them that any golfer of any standard can play any golf ball. As crazy as that sounds, it’s true. The most important thing is that you choose the best golf ball that you like and stick with it.
Using the same golf ball for the entire round (or indeed season) means that you get used to its feel and performance. You get consistency off the putter face, you know how hard to hit your lag putts, and you know how much it is likely to spin and stop on chip shots. You know (or you quickly learn) your distances with every club in the bag.
