Known for their bright colors and matte-finish golf balls, Volvik has released their new “tour-level” golf balls, the Volvik Condor series. The Condor and Condor X aim to compete with other top-end balls at a more competitive price.
About Volvik
Volvik is a Korean company founded in 1980. “Volvik” stands for “Fly to Victory,” with “Vol” in “volare” meaning “to fly” in Italian, taking “Vi” from “victory” and then combining that with the “K” from Korea to create the mashup name Volvik. They own their own R&D center and two golf ball manufacturing facilities, where they make ionomer-covered golf balls and, soon, urethane balls. It wasn’t until 2012 that Volvik expanded into the U.S. market through a joint venture.
Now they have a wholly owned U.S. division which could be considered a relaunch of the brand in the U.S. Volvik has the second-largest golf ball market share in Korea and exports to more than 50 countries. They hope to gain further traction in the U.S. market with their new balls and matte finish technology.
The Testing Opportunity
We are looking for nine golfers to test, review and keep two dozen golf balls from Volvik’s lineup. We will select three golfers each to test the Condor X, Condor and XT Soft golf balls.
The Volvik Condor is a three-piece, urethane-covered ball that Volvik classifies as high speed and low spin with softer feel and longer distance.

There are dozens upon dozens of channels, each with a different vibe and focus. Whether it’s instruction, travel, architecture, informal competition or something else entirely, golf lovers have a wide variety of options.
In this ranking, I include a little bit of everything and explain why each of these 20 channels should be on your list when perusing YouTube golf’s many rabbit holes.
20. Taco Golf
Let’s give ’em something to Taco-bout.
Taco Golf, led by Tae Koh, is defined by some seriously good golf, rapid-fire editing and New Zealand-style humor. Personalities include the likes of Luke Kwon, Luke Toomey and Harry Na—there are some great vibes to go around here. Kwon is among the best personalities on YouTube and there is a case that his own channel should go on this list, but I would just recommend any collab video where he is involved.
