CSiders12 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 Anyone else a huge Vice Golf fan? Well look what popped into my text messages this morning! The absolute beauty of these is striking. Thoughts?

Stereotype Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 you beat me to it!! I tried not to fan boy too much. But i am definitely excited to try. I'm hoping they go beyond club champion for testing capabilities because I like to see actual ball flight if possible. The irons look great with nice customization options. They're less $ than the major brands for a set of 7 but still more than other DTC options, cough cough sub 70, if they offer a demo program like sub70 I'm definitely gonna take a spin. I would assume the forum will get a chance to test them out soon. Will definitely be heavily invested in that one. I stocked up on golf balls right before the new launch, so I have time for those reviews to come in before I make my next ball purchase.

They definitely nailed the desired profile look on the VGI01's 10/10. At the +$1000 price point it's definitely going to move the determining factor to performance. Can't wait to read and see more.

Jakesy35 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 I’ll be interested to see how the putter plays; I received some kind of pre-order email about the putters a week-ish back, and the price point seemed high for DTC (more than the Odyssey Versa Double Wide I game right now at least, though that club’s price doesn’t exactly break the bank). Hopefully we’ll get to see a few in the wild soon and find out if the hype is real.

The irons remind me of the same profile as the Bettinardi irons that just dropped earlier this year. Their profiles and aesthetics are very very similar. tdroma98, Stereotype, MGoBlue100 and 2 others 4 1 Quote Driver: Callaway Rogue ST MAX LS Hybrid: SIM 2 3 Hybrid Irons: Mizuno JPX 921 Tour 4-P Wedges: Sub70 TAIII 50, 54, 60 Putter: Odyssey Ai-One Seven S Maxfli Tour Golf Ball Review Rapsodo MLM2Pro Launch Monitor Review Unofficial Mizuno Type III Putter Review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Person Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 Those are nice! Again though, like the putters, I think they are jumping into the deep end pricing wise, and defiinitely will be a "sink or swim" defining moment. Of course, their pricing is staying just under what most of the "quality" DTC competition is marked at, so who knows. Even Stix has jumped their pricing to stay competitive in the last year or so. (Still sub $900 for a complete Perform set) Will they meet or exceed the likes of Takomo and Sub70 clubs?

They have exceeded with their golf balls and I argue that their golf balls can compete with the other premium balls on the market. I would expect their clubs to provide the same high-quality performance.

nvizble1 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 I would LOVE to try these. My irons came off the boat with Noah, so an upgrade and modernization are drastically needed. I will definitely keep an eye out for reviews and fitting events. Rob Person 1 Quote Maybe I should try playing left handed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russtopherb Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 I may be in the minority but these don't do much for me. I'm also not the target golfer as I prefer SGI/GI clubs, but even then at the pricepoint they're introducing these at, I feel there are other options I'd gravitate towards instead of these.

I'm definitely in the minority, but almost all wedges that don't offer bounce options have too much bounce for me. From Titleist, Mizuno, Cleveland, and others who offer bounce options in the different lofts, I've ALWAYS ordered the lowest bounce option at every loft. My lob wedge, for example, has 4° bounce, and I've had a Wilson Staff 60° with 3° bounce and a Cleveland 691 58° with zero bounce before it. For me, bounce works fine for shots that I hit from back in my stance, but is a real saboteur for the high, soft shots that I hit from forward in my stance.

theblake7 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 (edited) Does anyone really believe that Vice, whose success is from selling a golf ball made by Foremost with their own branding on it, spent the hundreds and thousands (or millions) on designing unique golf clubs? Dont get me wrong, good on them for being the most successful at beating the dominant ball brands and I thank them for that but gee, their club prices? for 1/4 of the price you can get the latest from Golfworks.com, who do actually design their own gear, have 40+ years of experience in doing so, and have a great reputation. and maybe i am missing something - I cant see why the Red or Blue iron is $10 (AUD) more than the White or Black Though their great selection of 10 different ferrule colours really sets their product apart in the industry. Many golfers will want to accessorise with that. anyone who buys these on looks is insane best selling clubs of all time are Ping Eye 2 and Callaway big bertha style, nobody bought those for their looks, so there must have been another reason...
