    Anyone play with these? Look like a good option price wise.

    Decided I'd give these a try. Like a golf selection box :D

    Loving the packaging. Looking forward to giving them a hit. If they are comparable to the premium balls there could well be some value in them.

    Pretty sure that they have full approval by the German PGA & have scored very well in comparative testing.

    Vice Golf are being sued by Titleist for patent infringement. I guess that is a good recommendation for them :)

    Fairly misleading how they calculate your 'discount'. They base it on the imaginary situation a retailer was to sell their balls and how they would be twice as expensive.

    Buying a dozen to see what they are like will cost you the same as a box of pro v 1's yet they claim you're receiving a 30% discount. Imagine paying 60euro for a box. Buy 4 dozen it works out €30 per dozen. Id probably take the gamble of 30euro to give them a whirl.

    Did you buy them from the UK site Space?

    £30 (€40) on their UK site for a dozen for their premium balls (Pro and Pro Plus). They will need to change their marketing. They're not a fraction of the cost, they're a fraction cheaper.

    Yeah, bought from UK site Par. Agreed, the discounts are not great for a dozen balls, you really only make a decent saving buying in a bit more bulk.

    I got the Vice Select box, which is 4 different sleeves of balls, was €30 incl delivery.

    Figured I'd give them a try, they look flash, and I'm always style over substance :)
