Vision Golf Ball - US Test Pilot Project - MyGolfSpy


Recommended Posts

Hi WB,,, thanks for the post and we have been running under the radar

for the last few years in the US as I have had a great group of designs

but the market has only just recently understood the real value of better

visibility in ball design to many players games.

 

There will be some further testing at MGS in the near future but I

can't put a timeline on it yet.

 

Email me at wayne at visiongolfball.com if you want to talk more

about what I am up to, as you know a brighter ball makes the game

more fun when you can track your shots more efficiently.

 

Regards,

Boz

Will do Boz! I'm already "past my bedtime" since I've got to get up in about 6 hours to get to work in the morning, but from what I've been reading here (now that I've found this thread), I'm definitely getting interested in trying these out. I'm currently playing the Titleist DT Carry as my "practice" ball and plan on using the Titleist ProV1 for league. I'm not a long ball hitter, but feel the higher quality balls work better for me in the short game and get the same (or better effective) distance for me as the distance balls.

That didn't last long... sorry guys... the glove is off to it's new home with a fellow spy...

OK... freebie time... I was just cleaning my basement and found a Vision glove from Boz I got a while back. It's brand new and has never been used... It's a large and too big for my hand. (I usually wear a ML)

 

I really like it, the little grippy knobs are cool, but since it's not doing anything for me, so it's up for grabs...

 

First person to PM me can have it... I'll even pay shipping within the US (sorry foreign people, I'm only so generous :( )

Hi MT, here is a better shot to highlight the brightness as we believe

that is the real key to many players enjoying their game more.

 

The core and cover structure is an applied art approach but it gives

you a better idea, I will see if I have some others.

I just noticed the initials WB are on the top of the glove logo, that might just mean they're MY GLOVE! KARMA :lol:

This is an image I saw a few years ago that I thought would make a

good approach to how we promoted the next UV design, sharing a new

and exciting experience with a few friends.

Hello Boz

 

Great image. Is this the one you are going to use or do you want to recreate this style. If so I would be happy to do the shoot and post production.

Hi First, Thanks for the note.

 

Yes we need to create our own updated version,,,,, need to

get things moving in the market first before we get to put

in place the ideas that have been sitting waiting for the

market to open up to the newer look we are developing.

 

Golf is very traditional yet it can also be quite out there

and interesting, that's the part we want to belong to.

 

Cheers,

Boz

I'll second what JB said above- the "BOB" ball is the bomb. Great ball. Also loved the glove, which I wore until it wore through. I'll have to dive back into the test pilot program again when it's time!

Hi Guys,,,,things are still looking tough in the US and as such I am

not sure how I find a way into the market but I continue to get some

very solid support from players in the Nth American area so maybe next

year.

 

Currently I am working on an updated prototype of the 808 design that

should get the cover feel and flexibility where it needs to be,,,,,

after I sort the OZ trials I will post here for some US testing.

 

The other ball I am working on right now that is very important to Vision

is the UV White,,,,, :P

 

There is a thing I am doing on Vision Ball page at FaceBook later in the

week for a free current Test pilot pack,,,,,if its ok with admin I am

happy to send a pack to one of my MGS Test Pilots as a thank you for the

support over the past few years.

 

Just post here that you are interested in having a current hit with the

current Vision's for me and I will advise by the end of next week who got

lucky plus I will include some 808 UV Yellow Proto's,,,,,,

An excellent product that deserves to get traction over here. I have bought plenty over the past couple of years and I am very pleased with them.

I would love to try the new UV Whites.

You know I am always here for you Boz, and I have been "distributing" them in Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina for years!!! Like a golfer's Christmas finding a Vision Ball in the woods or lake of their favorite course! Golf's Easter Egg Hunt!

Hi Guys, I am currently testing my latest prototype design here in Oz using the feedback I have received to date from the MGS Test Pilots. It is called the 808 ProSoft and is close to the production specs I will be using plus a new type of approach to my upmarket ball marking artwork. The ball is aimed at the RX / RXS balls from Bridgestone and perhaps the NXT / NXT S whilst covering balls like the E6/Qstar in the second tier all ability area. Images will be posted when I sort them out to show you the base white test version. Following the final specs being sorted we will then move on to the UVEE Yellow and UVEE White trials, with much brighter glowing technology being utilised. Talk more soon, Boz

Very interested Boz! If I win (or even if I don't) I need to get some balls and gloves from you. Your gloves are the best hot weather gloves I've ever had, and I have yet to wear one out completely!

Hi Guys,

Ok I will hold off a little longer ins working out what I will send out, as it seems

a little quiet at present here on the forum.

 

I would like though to test the 808 ProSoft with a small group of players that are

keen to help with feedback,,,,I am just being careful with my costs from Oz right now.

 

I will be back on to advise further but the new balls I have coming will be worth

your time,,,,,,,,

 

Can the guys that are interested just post a comment and I will put you on the list

but feedback is important if you are to be included in my R&D Test Pilot Team.

 

Thanks again,

Boz

I am still in. I have been slowly seeding your golfballs over this part of Canada. The gloves are one of the best I have used. Anyone who has not used these balls is in for a treat, they handle very well and the high viz is remarked on by other players, hard to lose track of in almost any conditions and much easier to find in the rough where I try to put them.
