   The weight (or mass) of the golf ball is much greater than that of the ping-pong ball.

   A ping pong ball is a hollow object, which behaves quite differently from a solid object.

   The surface of a golf ball is not a smooth surface, but has regular part-spherical depressions

   The elastic properties of golf balls and ping pong balls is very different.The force that is usually applied to a golf ball would completely crush a ping pong ball.

   it is tougher (less elastic) denser and larger.

   hi,
   A ping pong ball is a hollow plastic object.

   There are basically two different variants of golf balls that can be found today. One is the wound ball and the other is the two piece ball. The wound ball is what the professional golfers generally use and it consists of three components. The core is usually a hard piece of rubber or a liquid core that is tightly wrapped in a rubber like tread. Once the thread is finished the wind, a hard plastic shell is laid over top. This type of ball is designed for maximum velocity, yet has a relatively short lifespan.

   Today’s casual golfer is more apt to use golf balls that are of the two piece variety. These balls usually have a solid core of rubber and are layered with a hard outer plastic shell. These balls while not as efficient as the wound balls do offer a longer lifespan and are cheaper to purchase.
