If I hear one more person claim their ball is "just as good as a Titleist" I'll scream, then run out and get a box of ProV's. Why bother with something that's "just as good" when I can get the real thing?

Yeah, thats my point. If it's almost like a ProV.. why don't I just got buy a box of those?

Those balls look like crap, and so does the website. Unless they are $7 a dozen, I'll pass on them, and continue to play the same rotation of Bridgestone, TM, and Callaway

Okay... so what did you clear up that you mentioned before other than your a pro at some club?

If your trying some prototype ball, how on earth would anyone get to try them, or for that matter, go the extra mile to try some new unknown non major OEM ball?

See where everyone is coming from?

Hippie balls...

I would play them if they are cheap....but guessing from everything else that claims to be 'green' i highly doubt it. Probably be on the same price point as the prov1 or higher...

So which model is it that you're testing? Wind or Fire?



Not that I could afford these, anyway, at $40/doz...

They also mislead on the distance 300 million golfballs lined up end to end would be.


It is estimated that over 300 million golf balls are discarded in the United States each year. That is enough golf balls to make a solid line of golf balls from LA to London and back!

I did the math & at 1.68" per ball the distance for 300 million of them is 7954 miles, whereas it's 10,902 miles rd trip. Picky yes, but I am sure their mileage claims are as accurate as their balls are.

Maybe they meant Louisiana to London and back?...LOL

Now if they were bio-degradable....that would actually help this problem...

Being recyclable...meh...its ok i guess

Since the balls are recycliable, they should do a program that you can send in your used balls for a rebate off of a new box of their balls...but then i fear these people would look even longer in the woods for lost balls since they are now worth even more than they were when they bought them.

Recycleable balls is a stupid idea, who is going to go thru the hassle of dealing with that? And the way a lot of us lose balls it's a moot point anyways. Like Clark stated, they should be biodegradeable.
