The ifrothgolf review
A four-piece urethane "tour" ball from German direct-to-consumer brand Vice, pitched as a Pro V1x rival at a fraction of the price. This is the firm, high-launch, low-driver-spin one in the range, built for fast swingers.
What's great
For the money this genuinely punches above its weight. In independent 2025 testing it was the fastest, firmest ball in the Vice line, posting low driver spin (around 2,300 rpm) for a strong penetrating flight, yet still produced the highest wedge spin of the three Vice balls, so you get real bite around the greens. Golf Monthly rated the crisp, clicky feel off the face and reckoned it might be Vice's best ball yet. If you swing it hard and order direct, you're getting tour-level construction for roughly half what the big brands charge.
Worth knowing
It's firm, and that's not for everyone. If you like a soft, buttery feel off the putter and wedges, you'll find this clicky and a bit hard. It's genuinely built for 110mph-plus swing speeds, so slower swingers won't compress it properly or see the distance benefit. Golf Monthly also flagged the odd iron shot coming out with unexpectedly low spin and flying long, and Vice's quality control has historically been less bulletproof than Titleist's. It's also direct-order, so no popping into a shop for a sleeve.
The verdict
If you've got the swing speed and want tour performance without the tour price, I rate it, the Pro Plus is a smart, honest buy. If you swing slower or love a soft feel, I'd avoid it and look at the standard Pro instead.
What reviewers say
Owners rate the spin and value highly and reorder often; the trade-offs are online-only buying and a firm feel some find clicky.
