Review on Pack Of 12 Polara Golf Balls With Self-Correction Technology For Fixing Hooks And Slices - Ideal For Casual Golfers by Robert Chandrasekar

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not revolutionary on my review.

Here's the short version.It's a good ball, but it's not going to change your game.Longer version:Pros: - Very soft, had a good feel around the green (great spin) - Didn't seem to hinder distance at all (as claimed with the previous models) - Price isn't bad - Very good feel off the clubCons: - I found it annoying that I had to constantly "aim" the ball. Several times I would tee it up, address the ball, then realize it's a few degrees off.re-tee it, etc. - I love that it is a very soft shell, but I slightly cut/scuffed the shell of two different balls just from hitting them (no cart paths, trees, etc.). I suspect it is just from having some sand or dirt on the club when I hit. - I bought a dozen for my father and a dozen for me. Neither of us really noticed any correction of ball path.Conclusion: It's not a bad ball. It's very soft, yet still hits a good distance. Playing these balls, I've had some good shots.and I've had some bad shots. Just to give it an honest shake, I alternated several holes between Polaras and Pro V1s. I think I slightly preferred the Pro V1s. The Pro V1 is quite a bit more expensive than the Polara, but my point is that I think a high quality conventional golf ball can still out perform Polara. On a dollar for dollar comparison, the Polara feels a little better than a comparatively priced conventional ball. So it's not a bad buy. I gave it four stars based on that.But if you are expecting a revolutionary ball that you can't hook or slice no matter how hard you try.you will likely be disappointed. It's fun to mix it up a little and give these balls a run, so I'm glad I tried them. But I won't be hitting them religiously. Mainly because I don't want to have to aim it before every shot. I do seem to stick these to the green or even back them up occasionally. So that was pretty cool.*For reference, I am not a great golfer. I usually score between 90-100 on most courses. I don't have a consistent hook or slice.but I still hit my fair share of both. I probably spend 60-70% of my shots on the fairways or greens. So the rough and I are well acquainted. So take my opinions with a grain of salt.

Pros
  • ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY: Polara Extra Distance Self Correcting Golf Balls are for the golfer who wants to eliminate hooks and slices so that every shot is straight. The unique 2-piece construction consists of an Ionomer central core and Polybutadiene outer cover
Cons
  • The self-correction technology may cause confusion and frustration for golfers who are used to traditional golf balls
