Okay, so I’ve been trying to up my golf game lately, and everyone keeps telling me it’s all about the ball. So, I decided to give these e12 Contact golf balls a shot. Here’s how it went down.

The Experiment Begins
First things first, I grabbed a box of these e12 Contact balls. I’d heard good things about them, something about “Contact Force Dimples” and how they’re supposed to help you hit straighter. Sounded promising, so I was eager to test them out.
I headed to the driving range. I started with my usual warm-up, hitting a few with my old, beat-up balls (you know, the ones that have seen better days). Then, I switched to the e12 Contacts.
Feel and Flight
Honestly, the first thing I noticed was the feel. They felt a little… softer, maybe? Not in a bad way, just different. When I made contact (pun intended!), it felt like the ball really compressed on the clubface.
And the flight? Well, I’m no pro, but I definitely saw a difference. My shots seemed to go straighter, with less of that annoying slice I sometimes get. I was hitting them pretty consistently down the middle, which is always a good feeling.
- Straighter Shots: Seemed less prone to my usual slice.
- Softer Feel: A noticeable difference in feel compared to my old balls.
- Consistent Distance: Didn’t magically add 50 yards, but my distances were consistent.
Putting It to the Test
After the driving range, I took them out on the course for a proper round. I still had a few mishits (because, let’s be real, I’m not Tiger Woods), but overall, I felt like I had more control over my shots.

The Verdict (So Far)
So, are these e12 Contact balls some kind of miracle worker? No. But did I see an improvement in my game? Yeah, I think I did. I’m going to keep using them for a while and see if that straight-shooting trend continues. If you’re looking for a ball that might help you tame your slice and give you a bit more control, these are worth checking out. I had fun with testing the balls.
