yellow golf balls Simply put, yellow golf balls are a lot easier to see. This is especially true with the fluorescent or neon yellow hue found on many balls, including the Srixon Q-Star and Q-Star Tour.

Read More »Do yellow balls bring the coolness factor? Not to sound a bit judgy, but for a while, there seemed to be a stigma attached to the ball that kept better players from throwing one in the bag. Back then, yellow tended to be associated with distance-driven offerings, which were rock hard and uncontrollable. Fast forward from a stuffy, narrow-minded and judgmental golf past to today — yellow golf balls are just as at home on the first tee of your local club as are white ones. The stigma no longer exists; new golfers and experienced players are playing yellow these days not just because they’re easier to find, but because there’s some legitimate science behind why a yellow ball might even help you play better. Srixon, one of the leading yellow golf ball manufacturers today, has said on record that “yellow is the most visible color in the visual spectrum and psychology has correlated green with calming and stress relief.” So not only is yellow easier to see, it just might help you relax as well. Here’s more good news. Ball manufacturers make yellow golf balls in more varieties than ever before — even some premium golf ball lines come with yellow options. We suspect that as younger players grow into the game during an era where yellow golf balls are the norm, we’ll continue to see the color grow in popularity much the way yellow tennis balls eventually became the standard over white tennis balls. As far as playing a yellow ball yourself, we think the color has a bright future. It might never become the de facto choice, but it offers more than enough benefits to garner a spot in the ball rotation. Want to really dial in your shots?
