The different numbers just make it easier to tell the difference between the balls. If everyone played a # 3 ball, it would be difficult to tell everyone's ball apart.

Every golf ball has numbers on it. How many numbers and which numbers vary from brand to brand, but they all have at least one number.
That one number is most likely to be a 1, 2, 3 or 4 (although it can also be anything from a zero to a 9). What do these numbers mean?
Nothing, really. These single-digit numbers are simply there for identification purposes. If the members of a foursome are all playing a Titleist NXT ball, for example, one might play a ball with the number "1," another a "2," the third a "3," and the fourth a "4." This will allow the members to keep track of which ball belongs to each player.
These numbers usually appear just below the branding of the ball's name. All the balls from the same sleeve will have the same ID number.

umm actually zaza... im pretty sure u got this one wrong. u r correct for every other golf ball out there, except for the pro v1. red number means prov1x which actually spins less (more like 100 copression) and has a softer and thinner cover. the regular prov1 has a black number and is probably less then 100 compression.
the numbers are there basically to tell the balls apart.

the color does. red numbers are a 90 lb. compression and the black numbers are a 100 lb. compression.
dude below me... go ahead and read the prov1 and prov1x boxes.

No, they don't mean anything on any kind of golf balls. They're there for identification purposes.
