Volvik are best known for their colourful golf balls, but with the Condor they’ve taken a more traditional approach. This is a white, tour-inspired design that aims to give the average club golfer the sort of all-round performance usually associated with the heavy hitters in the golf market.
Targeted at players with moderate swing speeds, this Volvik golf ball promises low driver spin for distance while still providing urethane cover feel and wedge spin around the greens. Find out how we found it in our full Volvik Condor golf ball review…

NCG Summary
NCG SUMMARY
The Volvik Condor is a three-piece urethane-covered golf ball designed for moderate swing speeds. It delivers premium-level feel and spin performance at a mid-market price point. I found it to be long off the tee, consistent through the bag, and excellent around the greens.
PROS
- Long and consistent off the tee
- Strong wedge spin performance
- Simple, traditional look
CONS
- Iron spin slightly lower than ideal for stronger players
First Impressions
I was surprised to find the Condor look simple and classic. There’s none of Volvik’s trademark colour branding here, just a clean, traditional white finish. I like it. At address it inspires confidence, and the soft cover immediately feels a bit more premium than what I have experienced before from Volvik.
On the course and during my testing, this was clear. Off the putter face the Condor was buttery soft, giving a feel almost indistinguishable from the likes of the Pro V1 or TP5. Wedge shots generated consistent, high spin, while iron strikes launched with a predictable trajectory.
NCG Review
In terms of performance, I was impressed with this ball around the greens. With a wedge in hand, the Condor averaged around 7,500 rpm of spin, which is very close to the 8,000 to 8,500 rpm I get from the very best tour performance golf balls. This gave excellent stopping power and control around the greens.
With a 7-iron, I was able to carry the Condor carried 161 yards and finished at an average of 173 yards total. However, the spin was slightly lower than what I would want. I averaged 5,300 rpm compared to a more desirable 6,000 rpm, but it was consistent and reliable.
Off the driver, the Condor was particularly impressive. My ball speeds peaked at 154 miles per hour, carrying 267 yards and finishing close to 290 yards total. The driver spin averaged only 2,100 rpm, which is very low, but that low spin translated into longer and straighter drives. For club golfers looking for extra distance without sacrificing feel, this is an excellent combination.

NCG Verdict
Overall, I think the Volvik Condor is a very strong all-rounder that delivers performance well above its price bracket. It does not quite produce the same spin rates with irons as the very top models, but for most club golfers this is a worthwhile trade-off. The Condor offers long and consistent drives, a soft and premium feel, and plenty of spin around the greens.
