When it comes to making golf balls there are three primary materials that dominate the market:
Surlyn
This is the most widely found ball cover material on the market and is considered the best for durability, distance, cut-resistance and affordability.
Balata
This is a softer but more expensive cover that is used for spin, feel, and control, but it is susceptible to nicks and cuts and is not as long lasting so.
Elastomer
Without giving up too much in durability these balls are good for low-handicap players who want more spin.
