Anti-slice ball: It takes a golfer to know one


During a recent Polara pow-wow discussing future marketing plans, an issue came up that some of us had never thought of.

Turns out, you need to hit conforming (i.e. slicing) golf balls before understanding the power of the dark side... er, I mean anti-slicing Polara golf balls. (Please note: I don’t really think Polara is the golf ball of choice of Darth Vader. I’m just poking fun at the idea that recreational balls are somehow detrimental to the hallowed game of golf, as some puritan pundits believe.)

But I digress. The subject came up after a reviewer, new golfer, and Polara Challenge participant commented recently that he didn’t notice any of the golf ball’s stated benefits. Incidentally, the man had never hit tournament-legal golf balls with any regularity, so he didn’t understand that slice affects upwards of 66% of all golfers, and that he would have otherwise missed a lot more fairways playing with traditional balls.

That may seem like a big old “duh” to some, but it was a helpful reminder to me that not everyone is familiar enough with golf to now how much a pain in the arse slicing can be for players at all levels. To welcome and include people of all backgrounds and wisdom levels, which is what Polara aims to do with golf balls and equipment that make the game a lot more accessible, enjoyable, and affordable, in addition to curing a golf slice..

So if you’re interested in golf but have never played, we encourage you to hit a bucket of balls at your local driving range. But before the ones who struggle most with that right of passage and prematurely leave the game in a fit of rage because you’re hooking the golf ball, give our balls a try. They’ll blow your socks off, I promise.

The more you know.

As seen on Fox News: “Sorry our original ball worked so well”

Horn tootin’ time!

Once again, Polara was featured in Fox News recently. What’s great about this story is that it really captures the essence of our new golf ball, the Polara XD, short for extra distance.

“The original Polara Ultimate Straight golf ball comes at a price: lower lift, which reduces distance,” the report explains. “That’s not an issue for players who would otherwise live in the rough at the sides of the course. But it is for moderate slicers. So Polara released a second self-correcting golf ball this year, the XD, with 25 percent less correction and more lift.”

Our very own Dave Felker had this to say: “Critical reception to our original ball last year was phenomenal. But some of our customers didn’t like the compromise in distance, so we devised a ball with 50 percent correction instead of the original 75 percent. The result is a ball that gives people as much distance as normal golf balls, while still mitigating slice.

“If the first wasn’t right for you, this is perfect.”

In other words, no two golfers are bad in quite the same way. Hence the need for our second ball to ensure everyone can get the most out of the anti-slice revolution.

To find out which game improvement golf ball is right for you, read this. Then head over to Fox News to read the full profile of the new Polara XD. And if you haven’t already, don’t miss the first story they did on us last year, Banned But Awesome.
