The results in the article are supposed to be from robot testing data for launch angle and backspin on half-wedge shots.

A quote from the article -


"Of course, finding the right ball is more complicated than getting fit for a driver or a set of irons because the ball needs to work with each club in the bag. Our suggestion: For starters, try to figure out what problem you most want solved (feel, spin, trajectory, dispersion and distance).

"I encourage golfers to make their ball choice based on the shots that are going to help them shoot the lowest score, and, of course, these are almost always shorter shots into the green," says Bill Morgan, senior vice president of golf-ball research and development for Titleist. "Golfers should try two different balls in the same scenario, and when they do, it's fairly easy for them to fit themselves."
