Customer satisfaction and providing quality golf balls is of extreme importance to SmartOne. As an additional quality control on our products and to ensure that our customers are using the best golf balls around, SmartOne conducts regular testing at the equipment-testing firm Golf Laboratories in San Diego, CA.

THE ROBOT
Golf Laboratories’ robots have become the standard for machine testing amongst the biggest names in golf.
The high performance Golf Laboratories 4 Pt. Servo Robot is driven by an Open Loop Servo Control System, is extremely versatile allowing for a broad range of testing options. The Robot can swing at speeds as low as 0.1mph for putter testing and with 79Nm of torque, it can achieve driver-club-head speeds of 120mph at just 50% of its maximum power.

PARAMETERS
Specific launch monitor software is used in tandem with the Robot to capture all information related to swing, impact and ball flight. All key parameters, including swing velocity, release angle and acceleration, can be adjusted to our specifications. Golf Laboratories even state weather conditions such as air temperature and humidity, to provide greatest insight possible into the performance of our golf balls.

GOLF BALL TEST
Our SmartOne balls are tested in two stages at the extremes of a golfer's game. First, they are tested with a driver with particularly interested in launch angle, spin rate, ball speed, and total distance data. Secondly, they are tested with a 56° wedge to establish performance in terms of height, spin rate and carry distance.Additional data recorded, such as attack angle, swing plane, club-head speed and side spin of the golf ball, don't necessarily reveal how our balls perform but do give us insight into the conditions with which they were tested.

THE RESULTS
Relative to other manufacturers' products that were tested alongside on the day, the results show that we are indeed providing our customers with a truly premium golf ball.
