I've got a secret for you: Wilson completely redesigned its Staff model golf ball. And what this thing can do is wild.

But first we need to slice one of these open to really see what's going on. It's a beautiful four-piece ball ... but what does that even mean?

Think of it like this: the core acts like an engine when you're smashing it with your driver. The core compresses to store an insane amount of power. Here's the problem: When the core gets compressed, it completely loses its shape, and if you're not hitting the ball perfectly square on the face, when that core rebounds, it can send the ball spinning in an unintended direction.

But to save the day, there is the first layer of the mantle, which helps maintain the core's shape. So as it's storing up all of that energy and getting ready to burst out into (hopefully) a fairway, the ball's technology improves its odds of staying accurate by reducing its spin.

The second layer in the mantle is firmer and supports the cover, which helps generate more spin for shorter shots and iron play. 

And finally, there is the cover. Not only does this layer protect all the inner workings, but the responsiveness of the urethane cover helps generate even more spin.

How are we reducing spin and adding spin? Is there less or is there more spin? That's the crazy thing: it's both. It all comes from the four layers working together in harmony to help with a shot of any distance. This new golf ball is high-tech and built to be a secret weapon for your game.
