My Golf Game

Being that I just took up the sport of golf this past summer, I'm still learning everything there is to know about what it takes to be a great golfer. I have found that it's not too hard to hit the ball, but I still have to get my game down and hit the all far when I need to. I was thinking maybe I should buy some of those women's golf balls...the ones that are supposedly specially made to go straight and far. I'm not sure if this is just a gimmick, or the real thing...but I'm thinking I may have to test it out this summer when I get golfing again.
