Anyone played these before? I found one yesterday the "Tour" version and I hit it off the tee a couple times and it went straight and pretty long. I think I had seen them advertised on Facebook and stuff and I guess they are a direct to consumer type company. Just curious about the ball. I know some of those types of companies just relabel old model golf balls.
Vice Golf balls?

ode Yeah, I new it was Surlyn covered. I think I have found a Tour ball before as well, just don't remember if I played it or not. I was actually hitting an e6 yesterday as well and they didn't feel the same off the driver or putter. The Vice ball felt a little softer I think. Then again, what do I know!!
I've used the Vice Pro the last two rounds and it's a solid all around ball. I don't know if it's an indication of popularity but the white and yellow colors are out of stock.

Dufferman I play them all the time, plus I have some of their top line gloves. Good ball, play their Red/Orange-ish and Lime. They are a German company, started in 2012. I buy them direct, a couple times from Amazon.

I've noticed they've thrown in with Wal-Mart. Big display in our store with Vice balls, grips, stand bags and cart bags.
Got a dozen Vice Pro's (neon red) for Christmas. Have two sleeves left. Decent ball. I typically like a softer feeling ball. But it's fine.
I find one on occasion and I’ll play it. The Vice pro seems fine... a poor man's pro v, Tp5 or Chromesoft for me. But, to be honest, I see no difference between any of them.

Received an email today about a new release from Vice…the “Pro Air”…color options also.

VigilanteTrail Love the speckled ones.
The speckled Vice Pro I found one day and still have in my bag is nicknamed “Sparkles”…
…we joke every now & then depending on how the particular round is going “welp it’s time to break out Sparkles on this hole”…
I found one of the splatter balls last year. I played it for a few holes...and then went in the water hole collection. I didn't love anything about it. It's ok.
Vice Balls are excellent... they are what I normally play. The Pro is the 3 piece premium and the Pro Plus id the 4 piece. If you prefer a softer ball, the Pro Soft my be for you. They do lots of different color options which are fun.
Other solid DTC balls I've tried include the Cut DC and the Snell MTX and MTBx. I did not like the Sugar Balls.
pike51 The Pro is the 3 piece premium
Happens to be my ball of choice since the beginning of last season…solid ball
I like the Vice Pro and Pro Plus balls. They work as well as anything else for me. Lately I stick with the Maxfli because I've been able to get 4 dozen for less than most other urethane cover balls.
I have gamed the Vice Pro and I like everything about it. Could be my imagination but the for me it seems longer off a driver than most balls. Feels good on and around the greens, too.

My experience exactly. I originally bought the trial pack of balls from Vice. It included five different Vice balls. The Pro, Pro Plus, Drive, the Tour and another one that I can't remember the name of. I actually kind of liked all of them but the Pro Plus was the best , followed by the Vice Pro. I ordered a dozen of the Pro Plus balls and have used them off and on for about a year now. They are still quite expensive unless you order 5 dozen at a time. They cost $39.99 per dozen if you order one or two dozen at a time. You can bring that price down to $32.99 per dozen if you order at least five dozen at a time. Once in a while they run a special where you can get a better price on 3 dozen at a time or some such deal. Like KCee I've mostly gone to using Maxfli Tour X balls That I can just go to Dick's and pick up. They run deals at times where you can get the balls for around $25-$26 per dozen. I think I bought four dozen last time and I did get three dozen Vice Pro Plus balls on another deal so I now have plenty tour quality balls. I also have 2-3 dozen Srixon Soft Feel balls on hand
that I use quite often and if I were being honest, I hit them at least as well as the more expensive urethane balls.
