Overview
The Vice Pro Plus golf ball is designed for advanced players with swing speeds above 110 MPH. The ionomer Cover and four-layer construction provide superior feel and control, while the additional outer mantle made of HPF1000 polymer with magnesium produces an extra soft feel and added speed from its resiliency.
Design
The Vice Pro Plus has a 4-Piece construction with 336 dimples, which is optimized for speed and a lower trajectory. The core is lightweight and speed core for optimizing energy transfer at faster swing speeds, while the Surlyn ionomer mantle reduces spin on the driver and Tour models.
Feel
The Vice Pro Plus has a great premium feel off the club, similar to a Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x. The cover is softer and urethane, providing good spin and control around the green. The firmer feel is noticeable when the ball is struck at higher swing speeds.
Performance
The Vice Pro Plus performance is competitive with other top-tier balls. The distance is very comparable to a Titleist ball, but the Plus is better suited for slower swing speeds and has less spin on the long shots. The lower trajectory makes it easier to hit fairways and putts.
Fitting
Vice's new partnership with HIO Labs provides a broader data set for the online ball-fitting algorithms, which aligns a golfer's performance characteristics with the attributes of a particular ball. A new online tool will use the HIO's research to better align a golfer's performance characteristics with the attributes of a particular ball.
