The performance of a golf ball is affected by numerous factors – material selection, dimple pattern, weight distribution, moment of inertia, compression, club head speed, and many others. What OnCore has done is introduce an entirely new set of options in designing a ball by incorporating proprietary metal alloys with ultra-high performance polymer blends that shift the weight of the ball towards the perimeter, increasing the moment of inertia and reducing the amount of side-spin. A reduction in side-spin leads to straighter shots and lower scores.

To understand how this works, think about a figure skater going into a spin. As the weight of the skater shifts inward, the spin rate increases and as the arms are extended and the weight shifts outward, the spin rate decreases.
