One less Excuse!

Hot Humid Air Won't Slow Your Ball Down

   Worried that humidity hampers ball flight?  Think that the ball has a harder time pushing its way through dense air?  If so, you're all wet.  Hot humid air actually is lighter than cold, dry air.  And water vapor is lighter than dry air, so on a humid day the air is actually less dense, providing less resistance.  That means a golf ball will fly farther on a humid day - but not enough that you'll notice a difference. Our conclusion: Don't sweat it.
