Vice Pro Plus Golf Balls (One Dozen)

Product Information

Thus, making it a popular choice for players seeking a high-quality ball without breaking the bank. Vice Pro Plus Review:

As MyGolfSpy testing shows, ball speed is not the only way to achieve distance. It can also be done through spin reduction. While it’s unquestionable that soft golf balls are slow, soft balls also don’t spin. This is welcome news for golfers who prefer the softest feel possible without sacrificing performance. For these players, the Vice Pro Soft is a three-piece cast urethane ball that provides premium performance with a lower compression number. Whether you have a slightly slower swing or just prefer a softer feel, the Pro Soft could be the best Vice golf ball for you. The urethane cover still provides ample greenside control, ensuring the ball remains versatile across different situations. Who Can Use It? Overall, the amount of control and forgiveness I had as a mid handicap player with a medium swing speed was actually better than a more expensive Titleist Prov. Distance & Performance Conversely, the Vice Pro Plus is a four-piece golf ball. Also, it utilizes a cast urethane cover and boasts an additional ionomer mantle layer.

We’re caught up and that means the Vice Pro has the distinction of being the first ball for which we have two generations’ worth of data in Ball Lab. So, in addition to our standard Ball Lab metrics, having a bit of history allows us to compare quality across generations and see where things have improved, devolved or stayed the same. About the Vice Pro Golf Ball

The Vice Pro Plus golf ball has 4-Piece construction with a cast urethane cover. Vice designed the ball to provide the lower launch and spin desired by many fast swingers. MyGolfSpy ball testing also showed the Pro Plus to be a strong performer with irons. It finished within the top 10 for distance with high speed iron swings, but with a manageable spin number to hold greens. That’s what makes the Pro Plus the best Vice golf ball for high speed swings. The first aspect to examine when comparing the Vice Pro and Pro Plus is their respective construction.While off-center cores are easily recognizable, the experts we’ve worked with in developing our Ball Lab standards agree these seemingly small inconsistencies in the outer layers will often have a more significant performance impact than cores that are slightly off-center. The additional mantle layer contributes to a higher initial ball speed, leading to more distance off the tee. Again … speaking to patterns … while Foremost excels at making balls all the same size, the layers aren’t always evenly distributed. In every case where we flagged a ball as bad, it was because of a significant concentricity issue with the mantle layer, the cover or both.

Its softer urethane cover and three-piece construction lend themselves to a more responsive touch, making it a popular choice among golfers who rely heavily on finesse and touch. The True Price will always be equal to or greater than the retail price. The greater the difference between the retail price and the True Price, the more you should be concerned about the quality of the ball. In total, 11 percent of our 2020 Vice Pro sample was flagged as bad. That’s a modest improvement over the prior generation. Core Consistency The Pro model is tailored to golfers seeking an optimal feel, which is almost comparable to the Chrome Soft.While the Pro Plus is better suited to players who prioritize distance and a more penetrating ball flight. Vice balls also have a higher compression rating in comparison to some leading brands but expert claims it is not always rigidly about compression figures as many other things like dimples, cover material, core, etc determine overall performance. The urethane cover provides a soft, responsive touch, while the ionomer mantle and resilient core work in tandem to optimize energy transfer and reduce spin on longer shots. As you can see, not a whole lot has changed between models. Like the original, the 2020 Vice Pro is a three-piece performance golf ball with a urethane cover. It’s manufactured by Foremost in Taiwan and features the 318-dimple design common to many Foremost-made balls. It’s the same pattern used on the OnCore ELIXR we reviewed earlier, though we should note that the latest generation of Foremost-made balls features thinner covers. That should lead to more greenside spin and, indeed, that’s among the benefits listed by Vice.
