I’ve played a range of Vice Balls over the years. Exited to hear how the new releases stack up to the “big boys”. 

Belong to three clubs: one private, one resort, and one semi private. Also have a different set of clubs for each. Much older Callaway set, Taylormade Stealth top to bottom and a PXG Black Ops, Gen 6 set.

What a great group of testers. I really love how many ball tests we are doing lately. Getting data from a machine like Iron Byron is great but seeing how they perform in the wild is data that can't be found ina lab. Look forward to hearing how these balls perform for all ten of you.

I agree with you..ol iron Byron has never hit a ball from a wet rough with a clump of mud on it or hit from a bare spot by a tree off the beaten path or took a rescue club from a bunker 170 yards out..I plan on working the course over while working the ball over ✊😂

Vice Golf released their new line of golf balls earlier this year. This was their first big refresh and update in the last four years and includes a new model in their lineup, the Vice Pro Air. The updates, however, are not limited to just a new golf ball as improvements have been introduced to each of the other four golf ball options. 

About Vice Golf 

Vice Golf is changing or, rather, evolving. A recent brand profile done by MGS’s John Barba goes more in depth about these changes. To give a brief overview for those who may have missed this excellent piece,  Vice Golf is a German DTC golf ball company that has been through a lot over the years. Vice Golf was created by two lawyers in 2010 and offers golf balls at competitive prices. They recently merged with HIO, Europe's premium fitting company, to further their R&D and use the massive library of data HIO has to create better golf balls for golfers of all skill levels.

Congrats to this great looking group of testers! I've been using the Vice Pro Shade's for about a year and I love them! Great bang for your buck! I'm very interested to see how the new generation of balls is received: can't wait to see your opinions and reviews!

I agree! I’m definitely going to be testing out the Vice Tour against Callaway Chrome Tour! Should be a great comparison.

Jealous of those who are already getting their balls! I've got a handful of competitions coming up, including club championships (Belgium does them really early in the season), which I would love to test them at.

  • Callaway Epic Max LS
  • Cobra Radspeed 3w
  • TM RBZ 19º Hybrid
  • New Level 902-PD 5-PW 
  • Callaway Jaws 52
  • Cleveland RTX 56
  • Alien 60
  • Odessy Dual Force II CS#5 Putter

Can't wait to hear about how the Airs treat you @Lefty11 and also @TheSudds same goes for the Tours. Those were the two balls that the online tool suggested for me. Hoping to hear good things.
