Line Up Your Putts with AlignXL from Golfballs.com
At one point of another every golfer has tried drawing an alignment line on their golf ball. I mean, some of the best putters on the Tour, such as Tiger Woods and Jordan Spieth, are known for doing so. Moreover, golf ball studies have shown that alignment lines have a beneficial impact as you get further away from the hole.
However, drawn on alignment aids all share a universal drawback: human error. While it’s obvious that if you’re freehand drawing your alignment line that you might as well be putting cross-eyed, stencils often restrict how long your line can be and, sadly, still end up crooked.
Additionally, it’s unlikely a line drawn permanent marker is unlikely to withstand the wear and tear associated with a few bounces on the fairway, approach shots with irons, and bunkers (I won’t even get into the errant shots off cart paths and tree branch ricochets).
Fortunately, for basically the same price as your ball of choice, GolfBalls.com will machine print a 180-degree alignment aid, whether a simple, colored line or something a little more personal, on your golf ball of choice.
Indeed, GolfBalls.com offers their AlignXL on golf balls from all major brands, like Titleist (ProV1, ProV1x, AVX, etc.), Bridgestone (Tour B RX/RXS/XS/X), Callaway (ChromeSoft), TaylorMade (TP5/TP5x), Srixon (Z Star, Z Star XV), and even smaller companies, such as Cut, OnCore, and Snell.

So in light of the fact that there’s basically a 98.76% chance that GolfBalls.com sells your ball of choice with AlignXL customization, the rest of this review is going to focus on the durability and overall usefulness that AlignXL offers.
To start, AlignXL is a 180° alignment aid line that is printed perfectly straight and, if you wish to customize your ball, could also include a small message in the center. If you should choose to customize your ball, I’m personally a huge fan of having my favorite golf blog, Golficity, being printed on my balls going forward (pictured above), but you could easily customize your ball with your name or a funny phrase. Additionally, the AlignXL line, with or without customization, could be printed in different colors, including Black, Red, Green, and Blue.
Besides the fact that in stark contrast to the line you might already be drawing on your line, which is rarely, if ever, straight, the AlignXL is perfectly straight and, with the help of the line being printed half-way around the ball, actually can help you line up your alignment aid with your target line.
Additionally, no matter how you spec out your AlignXL, the ink is incredibly durable to the point that it will likely outlast your use of the ball. Indeed, despite taking a few bounces off the cart path, a tree, and a couple shots out of the bunker, the AlignXL custom line actually held up despite the fact that the cover of the ball got a little chewed up. Meanwhile, a line drawn with a permanent marker likely would’ve faded, smudged, or would’ve completely worn off at this point.
In other words, there’s likely a better chance that you’ll lose the ball before you wear out the AlignXL.
But that’s not all…

Indeed, if you happen to be the guy that wants to make sure your ball stands out more than the generic model (or just guarantee that nobody else picks up your ball by accident), GolfBalls.com can help with that.
Indeed, GolfBalls.com Customization is nearly limitless. Whether you want to go with a small phrase, your monogrammed initials, custom numbers, emojis, pictures, or even your brand logos, GolfBalls.com can, likewise, print that on nearly every mainstream make and model golf ball.
And just like the AlignXL alignment aid and typing, the custom Golficity image equally held up to cart path, tree, bunker, and repeated strikes, all while maintaining clarity and color. As a result, the GolfBalls.com Custom Balls are equally great for anyone who’s organizing a golf outing, looking to memorialize a special round of golf, or simply sick of stenciling on their favorite image/logo.
