    What Makes a Good Junior Golf Ball? With Guest Andrew Bishop

    We talk with Andrew Bishop about the challenges junior golfers face when using gear that doesn’t match their swing. Most golf balls are built for adults with fast swing speeds—and that can leave younger players struggling to get the ball in the air. Andrew walks us through how softer compression balls can help, what to look for in beginner gear, and why building early confidence matters more than brand names. We also talk about the process behind designing junior-focused gear and how to keep the game fun for new players. 📬 Have questions or ideas for future episodes?
