Two-piece golf balls are appropriate for novice and high-handicap golfers with slower swing speeds. The bigger core increases distance while reducing spin and movement. The thicker cover gives additional protection against stray gunfire. Two-piece balls also tend to cost a little more than one-piece balls. One advantage of the two-piece ball is that it can be reused after cleaning which means you don't have to buy new balls all the time. However, this also means they are more likely to get damaged if not handled properly by not hitting them with the hammer or not storing them in the box upright. There are many different types of two-piece balls on the market from low-cost drivers to premium hybrids. You will usually know what type of ball it is by its size. Two-piece balls range in diameter from about 1 inch (2.5 cm) to over 1 foot (30 cm). Two-piece balls are available for almost every type of shot you might want to play. There are some things to watch out for though. If you over-cover your ball then you increase the chance of it getting stuck in the rough or lying in someone's yard. This could cause you some problems when playing with people who use their land responsibly.
