ConstructionHow many layers the ball has, counting the core and the cover. Extra layers let a maker tune different shots separately. More layers is not automatically better.

Maker-stated and measured compression come from different test methods, so don't compare one ball's maker figure with another's measured figure. Spin labels are descriptions, not standardised test results. What the source labels mean.
