    The Volvik Vista iS specially designed and built for offering unparalleled playability for tour-golfers, together with increased green-side spin and a softer feel than ever before. Volvik brags about the Volvik Vista iS as being the perfect feeling ball for advanced golfers. In order to achieve that goal, Volvik packed this baby with their best technologies and no less than thirteen patents, making for a state of the art golf ball, deadly accurate and featuring explosive distance, great putting feel and optimal spin rates. In terms of green-side spin and feel, the Volvik Vista iS is superior even when compared to the Vista iV, which was already great in this department. Just like the Vista iV, the iS features the same world's first patented dual core built, i.e. a hard inner core and a soft outer layer, in which the company added an exotic metal called bismuth for added elasticity and explosiveness.

    Also, the Volvik Vista iS comes with a higher 95 compression for more control and boasts the same cover-coating, the extremely tough and durable Zirconium HZ. But the main thing about the iS is the improved distance and the enhanced durability, without sacrificing spin in the process. The dimple pattern of the ball is Volvik's patented 392 Cube Octahedron, and it works together with the four layer built, for providing you with more distance off the tee than any other ball in the company's portfolio. Also, you'll definitely enjoy the softer feel (compared to the Vista iV of course) of the Volvik Vista iS if that's your cup of tea, Bottom line, if you're seeking for a premium golf ball with great feel, accuracy, spin and distance, you've just hit jackpot!
