Nick, I really appreciate all you do and especially your focus on forgiveness! I received my order of Vice Pro Plus and want to relay to your viewers that user experience is so subjective and personal. The pro plus has been the firmest ball - by far - that I’ve ever hit! When you hit it pure, it great, otherwise it’s significant feedback on Mishits. I’ve tested them against Pro V1, TP5, Srixzon Z Star, Chrome Tour and, sadly, even though I wanted to love the ball, there’s nothing that stands out for me for my 92 MPH, except most notably, how firm the ball feels to me. I email Vice in the hopes that my recent orders of pro plus’s could be changed to the Air’s. If my request was too late, I will have 2 dozen pro plus to sell for 50% of what I payed.
@GolfBallAddict

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. At 92 mph I would definitely recommend the air. I think you will find it much more suiting and both forgiveness and distance. I know that sounds like a weird question, but are you sure you ordered the 2024 versions? The only reason I ask is because The Old Pro Plus is way firmer than the newer one. Also, compared to the tp5, the experience for me with the new Pro Plus is that it is way way way softer then the tp5. However you are correct, it is all personal experience, it's also the club you use and so forth. Thank you so much for always watching and commenting. It means a lot to me 😃

@@GolfBallAddict Yes, I should have stated in my original comment that all balls I discussed are the most current models, Ie. the new 2024 Pro Plus, the newest versions of the TP5 and TP5X, the Z Star, Chrome Tour and Pro V1 and Pro V1x (which are 2023). Many years ago I got to 4.9 HCP and after being away from the game for many years, have the 'fever again' to play this year. I simply wanted to relay to others that I think it will appeal to higher Swing Speeds, and those that prefer a firmer feeling ball than the ones I've mentioned. Closest I compare it to was the Chrome Soft X. But again, ball preference is so individual. I will be trying the Pro Airs. Nick, great channel - keep doing what you do!

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.

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.

This thing just wanted to go straight, I'd say 90% of them went straight! But also for my short irons and wedges had enough spin and it gripped the green well so it was stopping very quickly which is what I was looking for! I've only used these balls once but I'm fairly certain I'm hooked! And I got them for $33 at target, can't beat it! Thanks for all the videos helping find the right ball for me!

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!!!

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.
@GolfBallAddict

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 :-)

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 😀

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 tried to like this golf ball but too firm for me. I noticed that you seem to prefer a firmer ball. As an average player yourself, I would mention that, since it is a bit rare. I am a high swing speed player but just really prefer soft and score so much better with a softer ball. Probably the forgiveness aspect of it (I guess I am probably rare too) but still, I think most of the target audience would need to know the feel that works for you. You seem to hit a firmer ball better. I personally can't do it but chalk that up to the game of golf, one crazy game.

I am a 20 handicap with a swing speed on the faster side so I figured I’d give these a try. I don’t have a launch monitor or anything like that, but I wanted to try them on the course. I played 18 holes yesterday directly comparing my shots with the Pro Plus to the shots I hit with the other balls I had in my bag; Callaway Supersoft, Taylormade Tour Response Stripe, Maxfli Tour and PXG. Simply put, I hit the best shots I’ve ever hit on a golf course with the Pro Plus. I hit my first 300 yard drive, and then did it two more times. I stopped a ball on the green on a dime from 200 yards with a five iron. I overshot a 170 yard green with a seven. and all of that while still having better spin control around the green by a wide margin over the others. I’m sure there are some other mid to high handicappers out there who understand how incredible those shots felt! If you have the swing speed to properly compress this ball, it’s a world beater! Vice have made a fan for life! Thank you for your reviews!

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

personally , the 2024 vice pro plus is noticeable firmer than the 2023 ( as is on paper compression 95-100 now). i wish i had stocked up alot more of the 2023 vice pro plus, as the price of the old ones online in canada is the same as the prov1s. UNLESS anyone can reccomend an alternative to the feel of the 2023 vice pro plus and the prov1x???

That's interesting. I just didn't find that in my testing. I thought this years was softer. Granted it's been a while and I test a ton of different balls.

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.
@GolfBallAddict

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. 😃

Can a 20 handicap with a high swing speed 105+ mph play this ball? Would this be better than a Vice Pro for me especially in terms of forgiveness? Just curious, but I’m gonna try the vice tour when they get here Friday.

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.

So I took out a few balls to hit some.extras off the box ..I'll explain this..my home club 17th hole is 375yd slightly uphill to a plateau style fairway..with the. TP5x I'm usually hitting 19 hybrid 230--237 flushed..I flushed the first one , hit the 3 or 4 tweeners very acceptable and the last one butter flush..2 were in the rough 154 out approx , one ball was an AVX the other a Super soft..the shortest in the fairway was my legit first one a TP5x was a few yds behind the TP5 refurbs..could've been the bounce on the landing who knows..id also hit everyone of thos to the green ya know they were fairway. I drive ahead and due to the location of the sun in the settitng sky I couldn't see this ball which was 124 out..LMFAO it was a Vice Pro Plus ..so the next morning I went to Walmart and emptied the Shelf 😂..felt that good ..im a +1 who hits it 300 with A.I. Smoke and Stealth..Further with A.I. about 114 mph CHS

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.

Yes, and the callaway ball guy actually says this in testing the new 3 Chrome balls. Johnny Wunder I believe.

I have no problem with someone questioning a review. But if you're going to accuse me of something like this, please bring more to the table. Golf balls change every year. So does my opinion. I absolutely loved the old Chrome soft. It was a top 10 golf ball. This year's model is atrocious for the average swing speed. It'll be lucky to make the top 50. Also, a complete 180? The Old Pro Plus model made my top 20 on my 100 golf ball list. The top 20 is an amazing feat considering the old ball was much firmer and not even for my swing speed. Look I get it. Everyone on KZitem is bought. That's why I made my channel. You can believe me or not, but I will never have any monetary bias when it comes to my channel. Ever.

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.
