Just saw the commercial for these the other day. I also found out that the first weekend they were available, they sold 5,000 dozen.

GREAT ball. I play this ball over the Pro V1x.

Yep, guaranteed I won't buy any more due the shadiness of it all, regardless of how much I might like them.

I just played with these over the weekend and I loved how they felt. They seemed longer than the B 330's and have just as much feel around the greens. I love how they feel off the putter which is important to me. If they have any promotion make sure you put a link on here. I won't be needing anymore golf balls this season but I would like to pick up a few dozen more for next spring.

I need to call and see where my order is. I signed up for the free balls, you pay for shipping. They charged my card full price for a dozen balls plus shipping a month ago and nothing showed up. I'd like to try these balls but no luck getting them.

I was charged as well a few weeks after I got my balls. Make sure you call them. They will send you a dozen a month and charge you for them. You have to call and cancel which I what I did.

Damn, I should have read the thread before I signed up for the "free" balls I guess! :-X

It's on the site lol. I was going to check these out but if I read it correctly the "free" balls aren't even free. They charge your card 7 days after you sign up and I would guess you are lucky to even have the "free" balls by then. I've never played them obviously but for $39.99 with an auto subscription you can darn near go buy ProVs. Not sure who their target is but it appears to be people who don't click the policy button (or whatever it said similar to that) on the bottom of the site.

$39.99 is a little steep for me especially since I tend to misplace golf balls fairy often. But to me they are better than proV's. I think they do all the things a proV does around the greens and are longer off the tee. If I was going to spend this amount of money it would be on Kick X every time.

I saw the offer too. I'm assuming you can sign up for the free balls and cancel the recurring payment immediately?

Well I play ProVs but I don't think they are that special. If you don't put spin with your shot it won't spin. And I bump and run chips so they don't check anyway. I only play them because I don't lose a lot of balls and they Re the "premium" I can go 10 rounds on a dozen and about 30% of them I put out of play because of scuffs and let my wife hit them which she enjoys. That said for $8 more I will continue to buy ProVs. The price difference to me isn't worth taking a chance of throwing away $40 to try them. If they are that good I am sure they will be all over the pga tour soon then I might check them out.

I would guess you would have to let them ship them first and it would be easy for them to take the 7 days. Give it a shot though and let us know if it works.

I never was very good about reading the fine print...

I hate the way so many internet companies are resorting to this kind of tricky marketing. It might not be dishonest but I don't like feeling that I've been duped.

These "Free" golf balls are not free.  Seems dishonest to me.

The first dozen is free. You only have to pay $0.99 S&H.; Nothing dishonest going on there. The terms are explicitly and conspicuously stated on the order form.

So when they charge you after 7 days they send another dozen? Per their site: "Pay nothing plus $0.99 S&H; today for today's shipment and then you will be billed $39.95 in 7 days to your credit card. Thereafter, each dozen balls is $39.95 with free S&H; charged to your same card."

That has nothing to do with the free dozen. The terms are plainly there, it's not like they hid them at all. You can cancel anytime by calling.

Well I edited and posted after you so you tell me what that means? What's the charge after 7 days for?

      Fantastic selection! And very little driving between them. Fingers crossed the weather is good to you.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By ConorHealy · Posted

      Day 20: 2026.01.22 Hit about twenty balls at the range. Quietly pleased with how the changes are bedding in, surprsingly consistent ball flight. Hoping to film over the weekend to capture new movement.

      Looking for a Possible Equipment Switch

      By WUTiger · Posted

      You might also consider a tune-up lesson. Check and see if anything in your set-up or basic swing is holding you back. I have been playing for more than five decades, but on occasion I've had to make swing tweaks due to age, loss of flexibility, etc. You don't have to reinvent your swing. A couple of static set-up changes might really help out.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
