03trdblack Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Volvik is a Korean ball company just like the maker of the Kirkland ball as well as the company that produces the Vice ball. My bag is a revolving door! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hckymeyer Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I like it, happy to see anyone at the top level play a ball that's not a pro V. That said I'd love to see a top level tour pro put something in play that wasn't $45 a dozen. I guess when they get them for free and are being paid to play them cost really isn't a factor.

Maverickping Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Wonder if he will be using their 4 piece or their three piece ball (they have a two piece ball but can't see that being in the conversation). Interesting from a business perspective and also the reach this ball will get if he does well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
