I actually think a fitting for golf balls makes sense. Is there any data on club head speed or ball speed vs ball construction out there, or a rule of thumb?

Here's two sites that break balls out based on their brand and spin rate.

Here's the thing that is going to bend your mind. Faster club head speed means less spin rate. Slower swing rate generates more spin. You also have to take into consideration launch angle. All of this can be measured on a launch meter, so figuring out which ball to use is easier after you get all this information from that session. So for players with slower swings should want a low spin ball to prevent your miss hits from turning into crazy slices or hooks. Players with high swing speeds can play high spin balls as the energy will keep the ball straighter (watch out for that wind with the high spin ball). Hope this helps.
