Premium brand pricing is all well and good if you can pull it off. But it is also risky if there is an established market leader in that price range and the Pro V1s have been around a long time and gained the reputation (rightly or wrongly) as being good value, despite the fact they are expensive to buy.
But I suppose the proof is in the pudding, so seeing the feedback would be very interesting. But as far as I am concerned they can make them as cheap as they want.

I accept that the Pro V1 is seen as top quality ball but I don't think it has ever been perceived as good value. Certainly not when there are other quality bals with similar characteristics available at lesser prices.

its only good value when you lose only 1 ball every month, so £40 for a years supply of balls is good value.
But how many of us can do that ? i would say 99.99999999% CAN'T

But does, should or even is it designed to last month!
How many rounds is ball designed to play at its best for?
I suppose it depends on the damage done to the ball. I don't lose many, but they do scuff up if you have hit a few wedge shots with a premium ball. I got a couple of Callaway Hex Black to try and though they were the best Callaway ball I've ever tried, but they did cut up. and thats not taking into account the odd thin or sherman. I would use a new ball for a medal round then get a bounce game or two out of a Pro v, then in the practice bag.

I tend to retire them to the practice bag more often than I lose them but either way, 1 ball doesn't last a month.

Makes you wonder why do people buy them in such quantities then?
Perhaps they are not looking for value! Like I said the Pro V1 is a quality ball but that alone does not make it good value for money.

so we will only know if they arrive at the door or will the winners be notified before hand?
