The Polara Golf Ball Won’t Slice or Hook
Polara Golf have come out with an non slice-able golf ball. The recreational golfer or the duffer might consider this to be a good thing but it is considered to be an illegal golf ball. These New Golf Balls have an irregular dimple pattern which means that it doesn’t conform to the official rules of golf.
In other words, the United States Golf Association and the Royal & Ancient will not sanction the ball for use in competitions, either Tour or local golf competitions. With that being said, this ball was developed for the recreational golfer or the beginner that might not be concerned about the legality of the ball.
The slice is one of the most common swing faults and it is estimated that around 80% of golfers can not hit a ball straight. Duffers will be pleased to learn that the Polara ball will lessen a hook or a slice by about 75%. This is achieved by two distinct regions of dimples; shallow dimples on the ball’s equator and deeper dimples on the poles.
The ball has an arrow that needs to be pointing towards the target when teeing off. There is however a problem with the next shot – once the ball lands on the fairway you will more than likely find that the arrow is not aiming at the target for your next shot. The golfer would therefore need to pick up the ball and re-align the arrow to the target.
Not only do we have an illegal golf ball, we also have a golf ball that encourages golfers to break golf rules. Golf is still called the gentleman’s game because there is no umpire calling the shots; the golfer has to be honest and call fouls on them self. So, what the Polara ball will give the game of golf is a type of golfer that believes they are hitting the ball straight and thinks that it is alright to bend the rules to their advantage.
There are a lot of golfers that have said they would love to play this new ball because it will make them feel less nervous on the first tee and will therefore make the game more enjoyable for them. In my opinion, there are good reasons why some types of golf equipment is deemed to be illegal; it gives those golfers an unknown advantage over their playing partners. Also, those golfers that are willing to use the Polara ball are just kidding themselves – if they have a slice then they should learn How to Fix a Slice.
I have been playing golf for a very long time and even though golf can sometimes be frustrating, a ball that is designed so that one can’t slice is not good for the future of the game. Golf is a difficult game to master and that is what makes it the game it is. That is why golf requires constant practice and refinement in the techniques so that you can fix any golf swing problems.
Do you think it is correct to use an illegal ball? If you are unsure then do you think it ethical to walk down the middle of the fairway and to simply drop your ball there instead off teeing it off? That is what I thought!
