I used to play in a group that included a couple of tour pros and one was even a major winner. His balls came vacuum sealed from Titleist so that they absorbed no humidity before being used, I have to believe that it makes a difference. That is another option not available to amateurs.
Interesting and would have been great to find out from them what difference they said it made. According to Trackman an extreme extreme change in air humidity from 10% to 90% would add less than 1 yard to a mid-trajectory 6-iron and just over 1 yard to a drive so it wasn't a distance thing. Also a soon as you start playing with a ball beyond the first tee shot and it hits the ground it's going to assume the temp of its surroundings. As you say though they wouldn't have done it for no reason and felt it made a difference. Maybe a mental thing do you think?
Yup, is a confusing one especially when you think of that Masters chip at the 16th in 2005. Here's a clip we found of the man himself talking about it - twitter.com/MyGolfSpy/status/1087688553486864386
Sorry Eric. Analysis was on the top 100 of the PGA Tour. Looking at an upcoming video though expanding that to other tours. Will post that again when its done 👍

Didnt Tiger use Nike golf balls most of his career? The switch to Tour B XS was recent.
His "Nike" balls were always made by Bridgestone

@@GolfingFocus sure, best commercial for Nike possible...
@@gasperstarina9837 Absolutely! In their wildest dreams I don't think the marketing department could have thought of anything better!
The rumour always used to be that his Nike balls were actually Pro V1’s with Nike branding but guess we’ll never know!
I thought I saw Bubba Watson playing a Wilson Duo recently? I noticed Bubba was not mentioned.

Tiger did not use a Bridgestone ball in all his 15 major wins!!
