Golf Balls for Beginners
MYNT GOLF
Golf balls for beginners: soft, durable, affordable.
When you start out, balls end up in the water, in the trees and out of bounds. So a beginner's ball should above all be forgiving, durable and cheap. That's exactly what the MYNT TALENT.SOFT is made for.
2-piece
simple, durable construction
50
compression, very soft
€2.16
per ball by the dozen
Surlyn
extremely durable cover
What matters when you start
Beginners need different things from single-figure handicappers.
Price per ball
If you still lose lots of balls, you don't need an expensive urethane ball. At €2.16 per ball, one in the pond is no drama.
Durability
Topped shots and mishits leave marks. The TALENT.SOFT's Surlyn cover is extremely durable.
Soft feel
At compression 50, the ball feels soft even with a smooth swing.
Why not a urethane ball yet?
- Urethane balls cost more. A dozen WIZARD.PRO costs €42.90, a dozen TALENT.SOFT €25.90.
- Lots of spin isn't always good. More spin helps around the green, but it also exaggerates slices and hooks.
- At first the difference is small. Only players who strike the ball cleanly benefit from a urethane ball's spin and feel.
- Switching later is easy. All MYNT balls are tournament-approved. As you improve, the AMBITION.TOUR or WIZARD.PRO are worth a look.

Frequently asked questions
What's the best golf ball for beginners?
A soft, 2-piece ball with a durable cover at a fair price. At MYNT that's the TALENT.SOFT at compression 50, for €25.90 per dozen.
How many golf balls does a beginner need?
A dozen is a good start for your first rounds. If you practise a lot or play often, larger quantities save money.
Do used balls make sense for beginners?
Used balls are cheap, but their condition varies. A new TALENT.SOFT costs €2.16 per ball and behaves the same on every shot.
Can I test the balls first?
Yes. Three TALENT.SOFT cost €13.90 in the sample pack. The sample pack with three balls of each of the four MYNT models costs €39.90.
Are the balls allowed in tournaments?
Yes. All MYNT models are on the USGA and R&A Conforming Golf Ball List and are therefore approved for all official tournaments.
