I have noticed on my Tuesday night league that my Handicap last year was 3 strokes lower (for 9 holes) than it is this year.
The interesting thing is that I went up a class in our league from D to C and I'm still winning points on strokes and holes.
So I'm close to the other in my "Class"
Last year I played the Chrome Soft as often as I could as part of my Grandaddy Prep.
This year I went "down" to a 3pc Surlyn Cover ball, willing to give up the Short Game Spin for more "Straightness and Distance" off the Tee.
But now I look at it and I'm thinking maybe that short game spin I gave up is hurting me in the scoring area, meaning in the short game.
I'm thinking to going back to the Urethane cover balls to try to gain some of the short game spin back.
Now I have been hurt and my swing could be off because of this and I know it.
So can the "Ball" be the reason why we score what we do? Can it have that much of an effect on your scoring?
