Best Low-Spin Golf Balls

For golfers who slice or hook. Less spin means less curve.

Sidespin is what makes a slice or hook curve. A ball that spins less off the driver curves less on the same swing. You give up some greenside spin, which most golfers who fight a slice don't miss.

What to look for

Not sure? Try the finder

The golf ball finder asks about your swing, scores and budget and narrows it to three. You can also compare every ball's compression in the compression chart.

How we pick

We score every current ball on how well its compression and swing-speed range match the golfer, its cover and spin, how it feels, and its price tier, weighted for the golfer this page is about. Specs come from each maker's published information. No brand pays to be listed.
