it is better to to a high spin
The above answer is wrong.
The answer is variable. One must decide what how they want to ball to behave. There are three main factors that affect flight: initial velocity, launch angle, spin rate.

Why does a golf ball's trajectory path sometimes curve when hit by a golf club?
The club may strike the ball in such a way as to induce it to spin. This affects the aerodynamics of the ball, and can cause its path to curve.
What is the hang time of a golf ball?
To achieve maximum Hangtime with a golf ball you have to combine the optimum spin rate with the optimum launch angle of the golf ball. Usually the higher the launch and the lower the spin the better. Angle of attack with ones swing will also affect Hangtime. Hangtime Golf have been the pioneers of this for golf since 2001

What is the most forgiving golf ball?
Golf balls are not talked of in terms of being forgiving. If you are a higher handicap player you would probably want a distance ball, but if you have a high swing speed you should get a spin ball. Try a few and see what works for.
How does the layers of golf ball change it?

What are the best golf balls for driving?
The best golf balls for driving are distance balls, they fly a lot further, but there is a draw back for better players, they are not as good for feel or spin, that is why most players play something like a Pro V 1, they are quite long and great for feel and spin.
Why do you need spin on a golf ball in golf?
All clubs put backspin on the ball (unless you totally duff it). As the ball moves though the air with backspin lift is created. This is called the Magnus effect, it is similar to Bernoulli affect. The spinning creates a pressure differential and thus lift. As to whether or not a ball releases, checks, or spins back upon landing is dependent upon several variables: Spin rate upon landing, angle of decent, angle of the surface, ball velocity, hardness of the ground, and the coefficient of friction between the ball and the landing surface. ANSWER: Back spin on a golf ball causes the golf ball to spin backwards as it travels away from the person who hit the ball. Hitting a golf ball with a back spin will allow the golf ball to travel a great distance with a high arc. Setting a golf ball in motion with a back spin also will help to bring the ball to a stop when it hits the ground.
Does rust help spin in golf?
No, but it does enhance feel.
Does an English golf ball spin faster than an American golf ball?
No, they are the same ball.
Which golf balls are best for someone who does not hit a long drive?
The Freak by Top-Flite is the best golf ball for distance. The dimple in dimple aerodynamics, high quality core and cover materials produce high speed and limit spin for the best results.
How does a golf ball go so high?
You must consider a number of factors. I'll use Tiger Woods as an example. His club head speed is around 125 mph, with a 10.25 degree driver producing a 7.96 launch angle with high spin. At 125mph the ball rides up the club face and continues to rise for about 220 yards before it peaks and begins to come down. The dimples on a golf ball also help it rise and fly so when hit comes up against air resistance it spins round and rises.
What golf ball is better for straighter shots?
All golf balls are made with the assumption that the player is going to hit it straight. If you are struggling to hit the ball straight changing your ball is not the solution. There are balls made for feel, distance and spin, but not for direction.
