New Zealand Golf Ball Company


Recommended Posts

Alright guys, been a while since I’ve posted (been busy with life and work), but I had a question for some of the more tenured forum members (as it appears the archives on the page don’t go back that far). Help me remember because I can’t right now... What was the company from New Zealand that made golf balls that used to post on the forums? He had several lines with kooky names but had the brightest and easiest to see yellow ball I’ve ever seen... his username was “xxxsomethingxxx” inNZ. I can’t remember the whole thing. Was discussing this with some folks earlier and I can’t for the life of me remember the company and can’t find it in searches

YES that’s them. I couldn’t think of that for anything... now to see if they still exist

He’s in Australia. I still keep in-touch with him. He had some designs just shy of production and has had some set-backs, especially now with dang COVID-19. Great guy, and a great product, but he said things are still in-process, just no timeline right now. His Uvee yellow is still the best, and brightest “yellow-green” produced. It wasn’t a simple coating, so it didn’t wear off or show “white” underneath. I tested many of his designs, and even have a couple polos, hats and gloves that he sent me. He’s a true class-act!

I bought some of the Vision golf balls I believe from the SMT website years ago. It was a good ball and had some of the playing characteristics of the name brand balls. Would like to get my had on some again
