There are very few golfers that can honestly say that they have never encountered a Pinnacle golf ball and tried it out. Although it is not the pinnacle of golfing technology, Pinnacle golf balls provide golfers with an affordable option golf ball manufactured by one of the premium brands in the golfing world.
So, Who Makes Pinnacle Golf Balls?
The company that produces the world’s bestselling and most played / successful premium golf ball, Titleist Pro V1, manufactures the range of Pinnacle golf balls. Acushnet designs, manufacture, and tests Pinnacle golf balls at their golf ball facility in Fairhaven, Massachusetts.
So rest assured that when you buy a Pinnacle golf ball you get the same quality control, consistency, and efficiency as the top golf ball but at an affordable price point.
As one of the first manufacturers of 2-piece golf balls, after Top Flite introduced the 2-piece and multi-layer golf balls, Pinnacle understands the requirements for a ball that travels straight and far.
The first iteration of the Pinnacle golf ball had a solid rubber core and durable thermoplastic resin cover that felt like a rock off the clubface. Complaints from clients forced Pinnacle into producing a ball that felt softer off the clubface but retained the length off the tee.
Spalding, including the Top flite brand, introduced a core consisting of a combination of zinc and petroleum polymer polybutadiene created a change in the 2-piece golf ball market which Pinnacle soon adopted into its range.

Final Thoughts
Pinnacle Golf supplements the premium golf balls in the Acushnet stable that produces Titleist golf balls coming in at a lower price point but yet provides golfers with the assurance that it is made by a reputable manufacturer.
It may not provide the feel and consistency that the Pro V1 offers bit you will get distance off the tee if that is what you need.
