LOL I really appreciate that. What it actually stems from is a new lighting kit that I'm still trying to get used to, and a haircut that was done for free by a student of the college. Although I'm not complaining about it. Also I filmed this video at 6:00 in the morning. Still wanted to go back to bed 😆
See ...Since joining the GBA movement ....this is why I don't spend $$ on an "unknown ball" until Nick gives me the thumbs up! Thanks for saving us some $$ sir.... Like the video lighting and the new "look" Keep em' coming!
Hey man - big fan of yours- also a filmmaker. New light is sick but might wanna soften those wall shadows with another softer light. The shadow from single light makes things in background feel dramatic in a noirish kinda way. - ps great review!
I love that shirt also. I did think it was weird that it was Adidas when I first saw it. When I first put eyes on it I thought it was vice, Keith I would love for vice to send me some stuff. They have awesome clothes.
Good to see the ball is durable. You could use the same ball many times and keep getting disastrous results. I was going to say no consistency but I would be wrong, looks like it is consistently bad.
At that price and those figures and, I believe, non conforming it wouldn’t get the time of day! Funny you mention Nitro, I bought my wife 4 dozen one year @ £10 ($12-ish) a dozen, pink things (edit to add: I think they were the ultimate distance model!) and she hated them! I think I put 42 into my practice bag, I still have a Clikka tube full that I use for short game practice, reasoning if I can do well with them, good balls elevate my game and NOBODY will steal them!
Dang the iron feel/performance is such a let down after the chipping. $39 is basically a non-starter for a DTC brand now unless you’re Vice. Another good thorough review!
It's like the girl you meet at the bar who has 10 out of 10 looks and is absolutely beautiful. Then you talk to her for 5 seconds and realize she's dumb as a box of rocks and her personality rivals a kardashian.
"That is the most awesome design!! I love it!!" 😊 Unimpressive results, expensive ball, no way to try it except go all in on it.... "Wellllll.... Crap. STILL an awesome looking ball..." *Pouts*
I mean. If you want the ball to perform well it does. I've tested probably 10-15 golf balls in the high 90s compression. Never been able to fully compress any of them and the numbers end up being terrible. Same works with over compression. My buddy swings 110 and loses 15 yards with 60 compression or lower
Never heard of this brand and looks really sketchy... Not on the USGA list and their dimple patterns don't seem legit unless they really used $$$ to develop their own dimple mold. Should be careful and is not performing like a casting ball too
@@GolfBallAddictyou don’t suppose that it’s a refurbished ball being sold as a new ball. Just the way the numbers were and the dimple pattern makes me believe that it could be.
I don't get how any DTC ball would price their ball the same or more than Vice. They're not going to beat them on performance, design, durability, etc. Gotta offer a great price to even consider trying them...
I completely 100% agree with you. It frustrates me to no end when I see director consumer golf balls priced at $50 plus a dozen. It is going to be such a hard sell at that point. Looking at you "clear" (63$ per dozen)
The new camera light & lower voice putting golf UA-cam on notice
Plus the new haircut! Nic is about to take it by storm!

One of the best sounding around the green so maybe save one for the putt putt if you find one on the course 😄
Lol you know that's actually pretty funny. Most mini golf courses near me have a pirate theme. It would actually fit perfectly!

It's two lights. I can probably raise them up.
Thank you sir
@ copy that! Sorry to be that guy but hope I can be helpful. You deserve way more followers 💪🏻 resharing your stuff as much as I can
I totally have that adidas drip shirt awesome keep up the good work
You guys must be doing Vice drip endorsements!
I love that shirt also. I did think it was weird that it was Adidas when I first saw it. When I first put eyes on it I thought it was vice,

Digging the fresh cut

Lol consistently bad. Sound like my golf game😆
As a senior golfer, I would appreciate it if you would talk about the colors that are available during your design segment.
At that price and those figures and, I believe, non conforming it wouldn’t get the time of day!

Lol true that. I reviewed the pulsar 3 piece model and it was like hitting glass
Dang the iron feel/performance is such a let down after the chipping. $39 is basically a non-starter for a DTC brand now unless you’re Vice.
Another good thorough review!
Appreciate it as always. Hopefully the tour model does a little better.
That ball is like the Game of Thrones series…started off amazing and then never meets expectations.
It's like the girl you meet at the bar who has 10 out of 10 looks and is absolutely beautiful. Then you talk to her for 5 seconds and realize she's dumb as a box of rocks and her personality rivals a kardashian.
As always good video and thanks for the review. Glad I don't have to think about this ball because the data shows it just isn't worth it.
Hopefully the tour does a little better. We'll find out! :-)

I'm still holding onto hope for the tour. Maybe it can save Deadspin as a brand. Fingers crossed
Compression has no swing speed requirement

Yeah I agree. That's another kicker in the whole mess. Charging higher prices while not even being conforming? Bold move even for pirates

Would you please define smash factor
The worst ball of the season 4 period.
Nitro and Deadspin about to have a pillow fight to decide that😆
@GolfBallAddict by factoring the cost, Deadspin is the deadmeat of the season.
