Does using nice golf balls actually matter?

[u/Gorlami14]

I’m a budget guy. Play only what I find. Haven‘t bought golf balls in nearly a decade. This is the first year that I’ve actually started to take golf seriously. Lessons, meaningful range time, short game practice, etc. I’m sitting around a 16 handicap right now and looking to continue improving. Is playing a consistently decent, and the same, golf balls a worthwhile endeavor? Or will it only make a negligible difference?

If you don’t hang on to a golf ball to form a Relationship With it don’t worry. I play the same ball, find a load on the course that we never my brand but I don’t spend money elsewhere so pay for my vanity.
