Wilson Staff FG Tour golf ball review
Golf Monthly Senior Staff Writer Paul O'Hagan reviews the Wilson Staff FG Tour golf ball in his equipment review
GM verdict:The soft feel is reminiscent of the Dx2 Soft ball, but with the added spin control of a urethane cover. Performance is particularly impressive on wedge shots, where feel is paramount.But... some will prefer a firmer sound and feel off the driver.PGA pro verdict:This new ball gave me both performance and feel. It was delightful around the greens, and also excellent to putt with. Distance was surprisingly good off the tee, too. Test team rating:Performance: 4/5Visual appeal: 4/5Innovation: 4/5Value: 4.5/5Overall: 4/5
