Caesar Featherie Dimple-less Golf Ball ($30 for 3-ball sleeve)
Who doesn’t want to eliminate hooks and slices from their golf game and stay out of the rough? The Caesar Featherie “dimple-less” golf ball just may be the key to consistently making those straight fairway shots you long for. A company spokesperson explains that while golf ball dimples create lift at high velocities that increase the distance a ball will fly, they are also responsible for sidespin – a major cause of hooks and slices. The dimple-free Featherie flies straight, allowing for strategic shot placement and a generally more enjoyable golf experience.(www.caesargolfcompany.com)
