a product description for a golf wedge on the Decathlon website, discussing the golf club itself. I have found solutions such as "touch, feel, contact" but I am not sure which would be correct in the following contexts:
Un centre de gravité plus proche de la zone d'impact, pour un toucher idéal.
Amélioration du toucher grâce à la technologie feel balance
L'amélioration du toucher à l'impact permet de réduire la dispersion entre les coups et de vous faire gagner en régularité.

I think you should use the term already used in your text:
« Amélioration du toucher grâce à la technologie feel balance »
Which is also borne out by the ref. Cyril provides for us.

: Here is the link to a video about feel balancing technology, which they claim provides a better 'feel': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44QhOTWkjYs

control
It seems like in this context they're not talking about the grip or feel as much as they're referring to the player's control of the club, or the club's handling.

: I think it would be wiser to stick with the term already used by the source; it isn't really about 'control', but about the 'feel' when you strike the ball.

Feel Balancing Technology
This patent-pending technology shifts the center of
gravity closer to the center of the wedge face – the
impact zone – to decrease vibration and maximize
head stability at impact. By adding a microcavity
inside the hosel and shortening the hosel, nine
grams of mass are optimally redistributed in
the head for a more centered CG location. This
improves feel and tightens shot dispersion, giving
you maximum contr
