This may have been more useful back in the days of wound balls, but with todays technology, it is pretty much just a gimmick. Matt has worked in nearly every job in the golf industry from club fitting to instruction to writing and speaking. Essentially this guy used a cup of heavily salted water to make a ball float, then marked the spot that initially rose to the top, then spun the ball randomly to see if that marked spot would favor rising to the top.

Putts that would move 5 to 10 feet off line would stay at the 3 to 6 foot distance and make the putt makable. Interesting that you brought this up -- not for nothing and not to hijack the thread, but I got a package in the mail today with a sleeve of Zen Tour IV golf balls, and press release touting them as the "first perfectly balanced golf ball. I have a hard time believing that, if the center of gravity isn’t clearly impactful on a drive, it would be impactful on a putt. Each player used their personal driver and hit a total of 28 drives, half with the “Center of Gravity Alignment Line” aimed correctly, half with it aimed incorrectly.Before when I hit the ball with a fade it would keep moving right another 10 to 15 yards and often go out of bounds. Hitting it will increase the distance and accuracy of your drives while reducing the chance of hooks and slices. I haven't found that it makes any difference on new balls, but I do keep ones that turn out to be perfectly balanced (will spin true any kind of way you put it on-maybe one in 3 dozen) for money rounds. I'll give you a dime every time it's not up; you give me a dollar every time the blue dot is, in fact, face up when the ball comes to rest.

I use the manufacuter line on putts and sometimes the ball would tumble to the side when placing on the green. These 4 or 5-star reviews represent the opinions of the individuals who posted them and do not reflect the views of Etsy. I joked to the buddy I was with that he needed one to gain that extra little edge over me for todays game. Every machine I know of PREDICTS these stats at point of impact ( and maybe a few feet into the ball’s flight).Modern Technology has improved golf ball quality, however the alignment markings on todays balls are placed in random fashion and I have yet to have a factory alignment mark align with the true pure weight axis on a ball. Simply, the ball seems to fly straighter off of the club and stay in bounds on pushed hits that would normally hit hard and continue another 10 to 15 yards right.
