Volvik Golf is the inventor and promoter of the matte finish golf ball, and they also took the world by storm with the launching of the matte-finish VIVID ball, which sold like fresh baked bread. The company’s stated purpose is to make golf great again, or fun again, whichever you prefer, and they’ve been on the market for almost four decades, i.e. they’re pretty serious about the fun-business.
All jokes aside, Volvik is focused on producing cutting edge 3- and 4-piece multi-layer high performance golf balls, aimed at pleasing golfers of all skill levels, and they have 58 patents under their belt. The point being, Volvik boasts a huge product line, including top performance golf balls like the Vivid Soft, Vivid Lite, plus the old school Vivid and Vivid XT, but the good news for today is their latest trick: enter Marvel x The Hulk Golf Balls, which are part of the company’s partnership with Marvel Worldwide.
If you’re a big fan of the Marvel universe, you probably already know that the recent collaboration between Volvik and Marvel has been a huge success, and we’re talking about the Captain America, Ironman and Spider Man Vivid 4-Ball Sets (we covered those on our website if memory serves). The Marvel x series reported record sales, hence Volvik decided to release a brand new “franchise” of sorts, with the Hulk being the latest addition to the Marvel collection. The president of Volvik USA Don Shin has said about the company’s new release that, let me quote:
“Volvik is pleased to continue our collaboration with Marvel with the introduction of The Hulk golf balls. Demand for all our Marvel character balls has been robust, and we anticipate the same response for The Hulk.”
The Hulk comes in an awesome retail box and it makes for a high performance Vivid based product, featuring a 3 piece construction and a matte finish, boasting the company’s newly designed and oversized energy core. As usual, the Hulk golf ball comes in a 4 ball set, and each set includes a personalized hat-clip ball marker. The 4 ball set can be purchased for $24,99, and if you find the price tag to be quite high, keep in mind that what we’re dealing with here is a collector’s item, i.e. if you hold on to it, it’s very probable that their value will go through the roof, especially considering the fact that the Marvel x The Hulk Golf Balls are a limited edition.
