I just ordered another batch of the Vice Pro Plus. I get them branded so they end up being about $25/dozen for what I think is a great ball. I think B330s and Pro V1s fly a little further, but the pro + is really good around the greens

How does it "feel" compared to the two balls you mentioned?

I am not a long ball hitter, so I don't really care about distance. I much rather feel/performance from 100 in.

Ditto. Curious how they respond around the greens.

I really like their feel personally. I'd recommend ordering their sample pack and trying for yourself.

I found a Vice Pro+ the other day when playing so I gave it a try. It felt and looked nice. Definitely noticed a difference on spin control on the greens. The Vice did not respond the way a ProV1 responds.

In independent test the Vice ball generates higher wedge spin than Pro V1 FWIW.

eta: Like a lot of things, at the higher end for golf balls, alot of it is probably personal preference.

The word I would use is sticky. I play Pro V1's and Vice Pro + primarily. They definitely have that soft sticky feel that Pro V's have around the green.

I bought a dozen Pro+ in Red because that's what was available. They seem pretty damn pink to me.

I have found a few and wanted to like them but just don’t. They don’t have the same feel (both in your hand and off the club)that premium balls do if you ask me.

Also the colored ones scuff easily

They are probably still a good buy for the price all that said.

Ive been playing the Pro Soft for about 5 months and I love it. I really really love the way it feels off my irons.

I don't notice any more/less spin off the wedges, but it also feels buttery off my putter.

My favorite vice ball by far (I have been playing vice exclusively for over a year).

The shots that I was referring to were 20-40 yd pitch shots that I expected to check up but didn't.

I didn't notice much difference on full wedge shot spin.

It's possible I didn't hit the first pitch with the crispness that I wanted so I continued to play the Vice ball. The 2nd shot felt really well struck and just didn't check at all.... kind of skidded through and rolled out like the first one... I switched back to my ProV1 after that and had no more issues.
