I posted this on the other site as well and some1 posted a link to something Dean Snell said.... "typically, when golf balls are hit that many times, espcially with a lot of drivers, you will see some balls crack over time.. they are made to pass random location driver hits of over 100 drivers at higher ball speeds... I have seen many times over the years when a player orients the ball in the same spot, and hits drivers over and over (especially in cages or simulators) the balls will have a tendency to crack earlier than 100 hits..." Makes alot of sense to me I guess I never realized how that could effect the ball. But coming from Dean..... I believe it. Vice did send me a sleeve of tours and a sleeve of pros "for my troubles". Granted I did have to place an order with them to get the 2 free sleeves. But I got free golf balls. I'm ok with that

Over the winter I played an indoor league from Jan till March. Once a week. I bought a sample pack direct from Vice end of December. Over the 3 months I played the PRO,PRO SOFT, PRO+, and the tour. One ball was played per week. And I rotated thru them all. And the the last 2 weeks of the league both PROs cracked on me .I believe it was on driver hits. My swing speed is between 112-117. Ball speed 160-170. I emailed Vice over the issue and the said due to the "high speed spin" design of the ball. When it hits the net it generates too Mich heat and there for cracks the ball. They recommended I play a surlyn ball instead urthethane. Does this seen right? I've never heard of this before.
