i have played golf for 6 yrs now, and two of those yrs were on my high school golf team on varsity. i do believe balls make a difference b/c some are made of different material but your club matters more even though i do believe the ball makes a difference. your driving distance will improve also. i can tell u that i have used all the balls that you have and i think that bridgstone golf balls are the best. if get some get the E6 they are the cheapest and they have helped me improve my game. then again the whole ball thing could be mental but if that was true then there wouldnt be scientists working on these balls. anyways hope i answered your question.

Yes there is a difference. There are soft, distance, high spin balls available and they do have an impact on how you need to play your game. Distance balls are good off the tees but it doesn't hold the green as well as a high spin ball.
End of the day, we mid-high handicap golfers are still not good enough to maximize the benefits of what these balls can do for us.

I notice that the soft balls goes farther than the hard but when you the soft balls have nicks and cuts in it and you putt the ball in throw it off ,I guy who run the Ohio amateur said he notice that the top flite ball carry longer than the rest in hot weather the the black titlest move 10 yards farther ( but maybe the ground just harder)

if you look at the extreme end of it. the gutta percha ball, something now defunct, isn't as good as the balls currently on the market. therefor the type of ball really does make a difference.
that being said, the difference is negligible. the proof being that you don't see any difference in the result.

I think the club makes more difference than the ball.

The length of your club and the composite of your shaft make more of a difference than your balls.
That is what all the women say anyway.

maybe their softness and light weight, and the level of control
