  I would REALLY like to see the various golf balls show a swing meter setting...just like all the other equipment does. Many balls SAY they are "slow meter"...how would I know? How slow are they, really. I think it's time that this information be added to balls, as it is added to clubs, that way we can compare the actual meter speed. As it is, we are flying blind and spending money on an unknown quantity.

  The "Feel" attribute dots indicate a relative meter speed. More dots means slower meter. No dots means the ball doesn't slow the meter at all. You have to compare the ball feel to the meter speed of clubs to get an idea of how fast or slow the meter will be while playing. in the end you still have to experiment with different balls to get the meter speed you're confortable with.
