Released last month, the new movie of the musical Wicked is proving to be both a critical and popular success.

Famously the main character in the story – Elphaba – is completely green because her mother drank a mysterious green elixir but what abut green golf balls?!?!

Back in the 1980s lime green balls were all the rage and they’re back again.

Here is our pick of the three best.

Elite – TaylorMade SpeedSoft Ink

Okay, this is not quite all green. There are splashes of green. But that’s actually what makes this the elite option.

It is TaylorMade’s softest feeling ball with a larger and lower compression core for increased distance performance. It is also equipped with a stand-out high-contrast design that aids in solid alignment.

With a new PWRCORE™, it has been engineered with those new faster core materials developed for additional distance performance. Then there is the soft sub-50 compression that guarantees a softer feel and that softest Taylormade ball.

The 322 dimple pattern design provides low drag, advanced aerodynamics to provide extended ball flight.

Finally that unique hi-visibility ink stand-out design provides a solid alignment aid as you play.

See? The splashes of green are more than just nice to look at.

Mid-range – Titleist Velocity

Right, time for the full green with the new 2024 Titleist Velocity.

It’s a ball for players who want full-throttle speed and greater distances above all else.

It has a high-speed LSX core that provides faster ball speed on full-swing shots, for greater distance performance.

Added to that is an advanced spherically-tiled 350 octahedral dimple pattern on the cover, providing a higher ball flight trajectory for long towering distances.

Finally, the package is completed with a NAZ+ cover to enable a playable short-game feel and control, to improve your game around the greens.

Oh yeah, and it’s lime green. Good for frosty mornings.

Bargain – Volvik PowerSoft

Bring some explosive power and a softer feel to your golf game with the Volvik Powersoft 2-piece golf ball.

It’s green and it works if you’re on a budget.

It features an oversize core formulation to deliver explosive distance on initial impact, improving your distance performance.

A combination of low driver spin rates and a mid-high ball flight trajectory further enhance distance and consistency for even more distance.

And with the super soft ionomer cover, the ball feels more like a premium-level ball, adding enhanced spin control to your short game allowing you to attack the flag with more precision.
