I ordered these balls 8 days ago. So far I've received 15 charges to my card totaling $80.89, but NO BALLS. The smallest charge was $.06 - not sure WTH they're doing. I just called to cancel and they said they have sent 3 dozen balls and I will have to pay the shipping to return them. At this point, I don't know whether I'll keep them or return them, but this is a total SCAM in my book!

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

I ordered a dozen and they arrived yesterday. (order took 3 weeks)

I was billed a total of 99 cents, over five separate charges. (no clue to there billing policy)

It is my understanding they can be returned and stop the monthly order/purchases, if I call to cancel.

I'll be whacking them around Saturday, I did play a couple rounds last summer with them.

I was impressed and liked the playability and mentioned them to a friend.

He purchased a dozen and gave me a sleeve which I turned around and gave two of the balls to others friends.

Like comments from above, these are premium class golf ball. (I do not care for the Graphics/Lines)

Sounds like shady business practices. Won't be buying them.

That's exactly how I feel. The problem is the ball is amazing. If money was no object I would only play Kick X.

That's why I don't buy them through the "special TV offer," but rather just buy them normally through golfshopcentral.com.

Because they sell 500 dozen every time they show the ad a few times in one day on Golf Channel.

Well, I guess they don't want to make money then, cuz they'd sell 502 if they put 'em in stores by me.

Can you say cha-ching?  Apparently Kick X cannot. :-P

So what's the "deal" on these then?  You get 1 dozen for .99 cents but then they keep sending them to you every month and they charge your credit card ???

I'm not liking that very much.

What if you don't like the ball after the first dozen?  Can you cancel with no penalty / extra charge?

Apparently you can pay to return them and you'll spend a few weeks in customer service hell because the time for returns has passed and they already sent you more balls.

I also don't know how you return balls you lost in the woods or a pond. Whole thing is sketchy.

Apropos of the "widely available" in the thread title, has anyone seen them in stores?


I was at a local golf store the other day and they had them in stock.

Interesting, I'll keep an eye out.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

From what I'm hearing the first purchase is .99 cents - correct?  Beat them at their own game. Just go to the local drug store or grocery and buy a pre-paid credit card.  Put $2.00 on it and make your purchase.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure they know when someone is using a prepaid card because of the  number sequence. I doubt it will work.

Lol I feel like the guy just hit his shot into the woods at the beginning. @iacas are you on staff with them or have any advertising deal with them or do you use them by preference?

You can still get prior generation Pro-V1x's cheaper than the Kick-X Tour Z balls. So it's hard for me to give up my Pro-V1x's to try a new ball.

Dang- how much are these things? Why is no  one on tour using them?
