Watch and love all your reviews. Keep up the great work
Thank you so much!
Love it, thanks for reviewing golf balls no one else really does it 👍
Not a problem. It's one of the reasons I started the channel. I absolutely love doing it
Played this ball some on Saturday. Solid ball. Plays long, spins well, launch good and putts nice. Very similar to all the other X or firmest level balls out there. If you are a VX or TP5X player you will probably like these.
Always an honest review, this is a fantastic video. I am gaming the OnCore elixir and vero 1x but is have vice pro and pro plus in bag also. I love both. Your swing and game have become very good. Keep working. Scratch is the goal, every time.. God Bless!!
Thank you very much. I appreciate your kind words. 😀
I really enjoy your golf ball reviews. Count me in as a big fan ! Being a senior and slower swing speed golfer I will be sticking with the Taylormade Speed Soft. I loved your review on them. I enjoyed listening to this review as well.
Thank you very much for your support and for taking the time to watch this review. It means a lot to me. 😀
The plus this year is absolutely amazing! Great review again my man. I’m probably going to make this my gamer ball.
It's definitely worth a shot. I actually hope the vice brings back the trial pack again with the new updated models. I think that's a great idea for golfers to get a feel for what they like
Great review Mr. Moody! I would love to try this ball, but my driver swing speed is at like 88 to 92 mph. I am having good results with the Snell Prime, so I'll probably just stick with it for this summer. Thanks again for the great vids.
That's a great plan. Honestly I can't wait to test the snell 2.0 to see how a two piece urethane ball performs.
Well, you just put a fly in the ointment or a cat amongst the pigeons. I still have 4 dozen of the previous Pro Plus with my personal logo (lime green with a black smoking cigar). I don't lose many golf balls so it is hard to go through that many, but I am SO excited to try the new ones. According to Vice they do everything just a little better, and according to you...A LOT better. Another thing about Vice is that it took me a while to design a green ball (you can only have a black design and it needs to meet their upload requirements), but now that I have, they keep my logo on file and anytime I reorder they send me the ball with my logo just to check and then it goes to print. I have a 105+ driver swing speed and am a 5 handicap, I have tried numerous balls (even the "best balls on the planet") and nothing works as well for me as the Pro Plus.
That's awesome. I love that you use personalization for your golf balls.
Honestly if you use the vice Pro Plus already, I think you're going to love the new one even more. It might be a slow burn, but just keep using what you're comfortable with and when you run out the new model will be warm and ready for you 😀
I'm around 95mph and 8 hcp, and have found the previous versions of Pro Plus to be much better for my game than all of Vice's other balls. To me the rest of their balls are meh, but the Plus is special and I found much of what you are saying in this review to be with the old version. I think they go another 10 -15 yards further than the Pro. I have also noticed that my dispersion is really good with these balls and I haven't really noticed issues with forgiveness. I think this ball is much more forgiving than Prov1x it will be nice to see how the new version feels.
I will have my eye out for the new Vice Pro Plus for sure. Nice review. I like to hear about forgiveness and dispersion. They are actually the most important features I look for in a golf ball. The Plus is in my top 3 with the Straighfli and the Wilson Triad.
Great take. I appreciate this awesome feedback. Please let me know if you end up liking the new model just as much as the old one. My fear is that because it feels softer you might not like it as much
Couldn't agree more, the Pro Plus is absolutely a Top 10 maybe Top 5 golf ball overall. The rest of their lineup really isn't worth looking into just IMO
@@GolfBallAddict I bought a dozen of the Pro Plus (last years model) and have noticed paint pealing. They have not hit a cart path or anything, Then I found a Pro on the course and noticed it had also pealed. They have a paint issue, hopefully it has been corrected with the new model.
Only 2019 versions in stores around my area. Ordered some off the website, ended up being 50$ after shipping. That's dipping into prov1 territory. Won't order again but really wanted to try them so went ahead and bought them
If you end up liking them, just order in bulk next time and save the shipping.
Vice is the most innovative ball there is right now. So many options. I don’t play them. I do have some I found from 2023. I may put them into play today or Wednesday. Great review. Keep up the good work?
Thank you very much. The new line is far better than the old line for sure
Just tried the Callaway ERC Soft 2023 today, I think you need to review it. I know you reviewed the older model but they definitely improved it this time around.
It's definitely on the list for sure. Any golf ball that gets A average or negative review is always on the top of my list to retest. Especially when there's a strong support from the viewers as well.
Thank you for watching and sharing :-)
I've been playing for the past few months. The Calloway erc soft 360 fade and really liking them. Just got them, so idk if they're the new model.
Great review. Think I’ll try a dozen. Been hitting the Srixon Soft-feel. They are good with my driver but I need more spin on the greens with my approach shots.
Definitely give them a try if your swing speed is high enough.
The snell 2.0 is up next and I cannot wait to see how that performs.
Maybe try a sleeve or two ball sample pack. I swing 98-102 MPH. Normally play ProV1. X when it is super hot out. The Pro Plus is a great ball. Hit it on Saturday. The ball is really firm. And I play forged Mizuno irons. You will notice that more from the Soft-feel to PP. Just an idea so you know there is a big firmness difference coming.
Ordered a dozen that will be delivered tomorrow. Can't wait to try them against the Wilson Zip. 2 different compression golf balls...but results are what I'm after.
The big thing to look for when you compare these golf balls is the forgiveness on this hits. The Wilson zip is by far the most forgiving golf ball I've ever tested. Not only with loss of distance, but with maintaining side spin as well. I would try both balls at the same time to gauge how bad Miss hits punish you. My initial thinking is that the Wilson zip might lose you a little bit of spin and distance, but the overall dispersion and consistency would be better. Please let me know what your findings are and which one you end up liking better 😀
Very interesting watch, really appreciate the effort going into testing and producing the content. Any thoughts on this ball against the TP5x ?
Now granted I haven't tested the new tp5x, however as far as the old one, you have to have an extremely fast swing speed to compress that golf ball. Unless you're swinging 110 mph plus I would recommend the vice
This sounded so impressive that I ordered a box to try. My speeds are about the same as yours so I thought if it worked for you, it should work for me. Got them an hour ago and tested them (on a Mevo+ launch monitor). Compared the Pro Plus to all the other big name balls I had in my bag and nothing came close! With the 7-iron, I was going from mid-140's carry to high 150's and with the driver, I went from about 225 carry to almost 240 on my best shots. Huge difference! Thanks for the review, this could take my game to another level.
I really really appreciate you sharing this with me. A lot of people have been questioning my integrity with the results of these last few. It makes me feel a lot better that it's not just me getting these results.
Wow. What a review. Cannot get any better. I just got the sugar ball cube and I will try these new vice balls right after I loose them. 😅😅. I'd love to see the sugar ball review again with your new monitor. But I'm sure I'll love the Sugars.
The sugars are an all rounder for sure. I DEFINITELY want to review the g1 again as well as the g2
If you don't mind me asking. What loft is your driver?
10.5
Well I couldn't wait to try these out. I ordered them and they arrived just in time for me to tee off this morning. All I can say is WOW. Your review was spot on. The ball was exploding of my club like no other ball I've ever used before. The feel was absolutely amazing. Short shots, driver, long irons, putter I mean everything was amazing. My friends couldn't believe how much further my drives were and I was consistently hitting my long irons within 10 feet. I only improved as the round went on because of the confidence of using this ball grew. I did lose the first drive of the day but just barely into the woods. I'll take that as just not getting any swings in before I arrived at the course. After that I never lost a ball and the ball looked phenomenal after the round.
Your praise of this ball is completely justified. I was so impressed I'm not even going to use the Sugar balls I received just a few weeks earlier. I've found my golf ball and I'm not going to use another this season. I shot the best round of my life today and it's completely due to this ball and your review of it. So a Big thank you to you good sir for introducing me to this ball. I'm looking forward to some more great golf this season. Thanks again!!!
Great analysis as always! Those are truly incredible numbers. I’m wondering if you should try the aka GOAT ProV1 and see how those numbers compare as a litmus test.
I'm sure they'll be plenty of comparisons with the Pro V1 once I start those beginning of summer. I know for a fact the probe ones forgiveness is nowhere near but I just tested with this vice
The Pro Plus is listed as 100 compression. The Pro Tour is 95 compression and Vice says it is for all swing speeds. Dean Snell has said that it doesn't matter if you have a slower swing speed. A slow swing speed can compress higher compression balls. He always says to play the ball that you prefer from 100 yards and in.
That makes a lot of sense. It doesn't feel like there's a whole lot of difference between their compressions. What I can't seem to comprehend those why the pro has such terrible forgiveness and the Pro Plus does so well. Still baffling.
I definitely love the idea of playing up all you prefer 100 yards in. It's a refreshing take considering the majority of people I talk to are all about driver distance only. Now I will say there are some firmer golf balls that I love around the green they just don't do enough for my game everywhere else, such as the tp5, as well as a few others.
Thanks for the awesome feedback and for watching :-)
After watching your Vice reviews, outstanding reporting, me thinks the Vice website ball fitter/tool is wrong- it shows the Vice Pro as the most forgiving. As the runner up the Pro Air, which might actually be accurate. I called Vice and they said they “reworked” the fitting tool for the new generation. I was surprised that Vice Pro plus did not show in my results- ever! Thank you for the reviews, looking forward to Snell.. going with Pro Plus in the meantime- Subscribed!!!
Thank you so much for watching and sharing your feedback. This is actually more common than you think. I have messed with many ball fitting tools that companies have ranging all the way from direct to consumer to even titleist. Most of them I feel are way off. When I did the Titleist one it took forever for them to recommend any ball to me other than the pro v1. It's just basic marketing for most of them, they want you to buy the most expensive ball
Great ball, great review! I’m still surprised that most manufactures do not make sure their balls leave the factory “balanced” like Maxfli! Or maybe the Triad design or Velocity tour two piece dimple design or Maxfli Straightfli dimple design.
Can you juxtapose the carry distance and run out on the course? It seems it should roll out farther on most of the balls you have tested with the new device?
I don't mind testing that. I will say that the numbers make much more sense with this launch monitor then with the last. The last launch monitor would say 125 carry 133 total distance with a 9-iron. I know for a fact most of the time my nine iron just sticks right where it lands and backs up a little. But I definitely don't mind looking for any disparities
I’ve got a similar Vice collection! Just missing the wall display.
That's awesome! I wish I had the money to buy them all 😅
Vice sounds like the real deal!
Their lineup this year has been incredible. I'm truly at a loss for words.
I played the Pro Plus and the Pro Air side by side for 36 holes last week. The only difference I found was the feel. Both reacted equally on distance, spin on irons and chipping. I expected to gain distance with the Air with me swinging at 90MPH but, it didn't outperform the Plus. At this moment I am still debating which to use.
It's crazy how that works. I had similar results. Air is soft and squishy and the pro Plus has pure feedback, which I prefer
Been using pro plus for 5 years best bang for the buck
That's awesome! Have you tried the new model
Love the Vice Pro Plus of which I have been playing with for two years now after playing Prov1 X for years, however, the previous Lime & Shade balls, the color seem to come off quite easily. Hopefully, the 2024 pro plus balls don't have such a problem.
I haven't tested this extensively yet, but I really hope they fix that too. It was one of the main complaints about their designs. I imagine I spent some extra time testing it. If I ever get one of the Hues or shades again I will do some extensive testing
great review thanks you just got another subscriber! Listen...lets just say I am not quite a 95 swing speed or above player, but I'm in the low 90's, say 88-92 swing speed, and my handicap is around 15-18, not 10-12. The pro air might be more suitable for me, but I just absolutely love the look of the new orange-fade-to-yellow color Vice is offering that only comes in the new pro plus. Honestly...am I going to get more distance and better accuracy to the point that it makes a noticeable difference if I go ahead and start using the new pro plus vs the balls more suitable to lower swing speeds and higher handicaps? I need a deep dive analysis of this...could you do that sometime?
That is definitely possible. It might not be worth trying the pro Plus. I think it could have trouble compressing.
Air, tour is what I would try first. Tour if you like a little firmer feel. Air will be soft and squishy.
I will try to do some more testing soon. I would love to see how slower swing speeds react
Do you think there is a real difference between the previous Plus vs the new Plus? I compared your numbers with this new Plus and the new Air. The driver is where the main difference showed up. I like Vice and have played them for a couple years. I'll end up with the Plus mainly for the difference in driver numbers. Thanks for your reviews.
I will be doing side by side comparison soon enough. I mean my honest take is that it's better this time around the last time. But without a side by side I wouldn't know.
Couple of years ago you tested the Mizuno RB 556. Have you heard of the RB Max? It may be worthy of a review.
I actually do have one ready for testing. It'll probably be in a month or two but it'll definitely get reviewed
Are you gonna review the new Snell's? Vice and Snell tend to be my go to balls because of value and comparable performance to top brands.
Snell 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 is next 😀
I have a track man and the pro plus spins more than the pro I’m very confused how you got more spin from the pro.
So couple things to unpack here.
The first question I have, is what exact category are you talking about when you say spin? I would have to assume you mean the 50-yard pitch, because the seven iron and the five iron got less spin with the regular pro and the nine iron was the same.
If that's the case and you are talking about the 50 yard pitch, that could be a variety of factors. It could be the type of wedge you're using, the number of great versus good contact hits, swing type, swing speed, etc. There's probably 5 to 10 different factors that could influence that.
Also, keep in mind that the vice Pro Plus only got roughly around 200 RPM less average spend on the 50 yard pitch. In the grand scheme of things that's really nothing. Also, as I mentioned in the Pro review, the regular vice pro has some of the worst forgiveness I've tested so far. My Miss hits were like 5,000 rpm. They had to be removed from the pool because they were so bad. Even though the pro shows is 200 RPM faster overall, I know that the 8200 I'm getting with the Pro Plus is much more consistent and forgiving.
I hope that helps a little. Thanks so much for watching and for your feedback. 😃
Haven't found them at Walmart yet. Just the old model.
It usually takes about 2 to 3 months after release for me to see them in stores. I would gauge about summer that you'll start seeing them pop up
How do you know if it's the 2024 version? I just bought a box of white at Walmart
The alignment tool gives it away. 2019 is rectangular and 2024 is arrow style
From all the reviews on your channel I have watched, which is most of them, this X type of ball is not for you or the majority of your viewers. This is the value of your reviews . It should not work for you, but it does. It will take a hell of a ball to beat the Vice. Future reviews are going to be very interesting. The bar has been raised. Considerable.
Yeah I love what vice did here. I would love to see some reviews from players with really high swing speeds also
Ok Snell, how you gonna follow this up?
That's the million dollar question
I think we would like to see ON COURSE also of this ball
Like filming wise?
@@GolfBallAddict yes i think that would be huge for the program.
Can you compare with your new swing and launch monitor Chrome soft vs Chrome tour with you driver - this will tell us the truth !!!
Fan from the beginning but something is not making sense !!!
Thanks
Yeah I can probably do that. I honestly plan on retesting the brand new 2024 Chrome soft anyway.
Did you see the new Vice putters yet?
I did. I wanted to pull the trigger on one so bad to do a test of it and then maybe just resell it. But it almost $300 I just couldn't pull the trigger at this moment.
@@GolfBallAddict understandable. Maybe a subscriber who gets one can let you borrow it
I tried to play the valhalla edition but ended up getting arrested.
That's an A+ quality joke right there. 😂😂
Nick I have to disagree with some of your comments, Vice pro is not a good ball for you. When you playing golf you count your miss hits, this effect your statistics. The best balls have better forgiveness so your best ball in Vice and maybe best ball of the year is the Vice pro plus, outstanding numbers and FORGIVENESS. The tour seems excellent beginning 3 piece ball. Keep up the good work.
Yeah the vice pro actually is my 4th on the vice list now that the list is complete. The forgiveness is a no go for me.
My rankings right now would be:
Vice pro Plus
Vice tour
Vice pro air
Vice pro
Vice drive
All good to great golf balls.
Balls aren't forgiving. Good balls spin esp around the green.
Are you referring to all golf balls? Because golf balls definitely have forgiveness
Luv ur reviews..
I purchased some Vice Pro Plus balls from their website..they asked me where I heard of them..I told them about your TH-cam Channel..looking forward to Snell 3.0..😎🏌🏻👍
They aren’t cheap
I mean I guess price can be kind of relative. If you are comparing them to a Wilson zip or a cut red, which are a dollar per golf ball, and yes I guess they are expensive. However if you are comparing them to other golf balls in the same category as them, it doesn't get much cheaper.
So do you like this ball? Hahaha
A little 😁
Have you watched MHA NOW??
I think I'm just going to watch it tonight please don't tell my wife LOL
@@GolfBallAddict I won’t 🤣🤣 demon slayer is on as well
