Announced on the Facebook page.

So big things coming soon, but can anyone official confirm that for at least the interim, there won't be any other brand/direct (ball attribute) replacements? I prefer the Nike 81's currently, but there's nothing else that has the exact same specs.

"We've got some B I G things coming soon for you, but in the meantime all Nike balls are being removed from the WGT Pro Shop tomorrow. Get to the Pro Shop now to stock up before they're gone!"

We can only speculate at this point. I did purchase a dozen 81s, just in case there's a delay.

I went to the Volvik's(L-51), if I got to get used to a new ball might as well start now.

Besides its 200 CR cheaper

I have used Volvik on and off for a long while. They are a great ball and you're right, much cheaper.

I switched back from the L48 Nike to the L35 Callaway Hex Chrome then to the L39 Callaway Hex Chrome vapor in yellow almost a year and a half ago and never looked back.

The L51 Volvik balls are great, up there with the best as far as I'm concerned.

I actually played a World Cup game the other day against someone using L90 Nike RZN and I outdrove him more than he did me.

I used to be a massive fan of the L33 Cally ball but they were a disaster with my Cally irons so went looking for an alternative. I didn't want to go for Nike as their days here were already numbered and a club member recommended the Volvik.

I don't think I'll ever change them.
