Anyone have any experience with these golf balls?

There is a 4-piece and a 3-piece cast urethane cover 

$29.99 for the 3 piece ball 

Also can order from Amazon if you are a prime member and get free shipping

No, but I'd be willing to buy some except for the racing stripe around it.

I kinda like the coal gray color option. They are definitely different but might be worth a try.

Looks to be a company just buying balls from one of the overseas manufacturers using an existing design without anything truly new or different about them.  More of a "brand" than a golf ball company.  Currently, only the white versions of their balls are on the conforming list.

Any idea what ball it is?

Or what other company uses this design?

I was hoping it was a ball I tried already so I don't have to try these

No clue.  I'm sure that if they get big enough to get on more people's radar that word will get out on who makes their balls. Maybe there is a "country of origin" listed on the packaging or on the website.  That could narrow it down somewhat.  The dimple count, 332, is very common.

I tried to do a little research (Google) and I couldn't find anything

I might take the plunge and see what they are about

I still have some Snell Blacks hanging around so I might order some in a few weeks

Will report back if I do

I played with the grey ones last year and I can say for sure that if it is even slightly overcast, you will loose that ball. Even on the fairway, it is extremely hard to see. But it does give you a certain feeling of class and elitism to look at it. I love the grey ball idea, but I wish they were less dark.

I went an ordered a dozen (white)

Will be here Monday

Will let you know how they work when I get a chance

If I like them I will go with the Purple

 

Ordered on Amazon

The website Uncommon wanted to charge me $9.99 for shipping

Just got these in yesterday afternoon

Will take them out later in the week as the weather here is going to bad for the next day

So far they are very glossy and feel a little sticky

I do like the packaging, and the bag is a good idea

Also like the dice as numbers

So I gave these a try during the week and I wasn't playing very well so I really can't give a fair assessment of these balls.

I will say they feel hard off of the putter and my irons.

Definitely a different feel than the Snell Black I was comparing it to.

There was also a good 10-15mph wind blowing and for the shots I hit good this ball was noticeably shorter than the Snell both off of the driver and the irons.

There only a few good shots I hit that day, so I want to give them another round or 2 and give these balls a fair shake.

I do like the line when putting.

So I was able to give these balls another go

Was playing better than last time

 

I will say this ball is shorter off the tee and my irons than my gamer (Snell Black)

Not much shorter but it was noticeable 

 

Ball still felt hard

I wouldn't say firm but hard like a rock

Different feel when hit with my irons.

I have a PXG putter that dings when I hit it good and these balls would produce the loudest sound from my putter when hit well.

They did not bite into the greens or out of the sand as well as the Snell Black

Definitely got some roll out.

 

I do like the line on the ball when putting, but I am a big fan of the Truvis so it may be a personal preference

 

Overall there is just nothing that stands out about this ball besides the line.

When I tested the OnCore Elixr, I remember the ball being short off of my irons, but it was my favorite ball to putt

The Uncommon is just a mediocre ball

It does everything ok but nothing great or really noticeable

 

I would say this ball is Common not Uncommon (LOL)

 

PS

As always your results may very

This is just my experience
