From Founder Piss Missile Rob:
I didn't set out to start a golf ball company, but instead had a problem I was facing. A scratch golfer buddy of mine gave me the advice to play a consistent brand of golf ball across every round to keep that variable consistent. I'm not a very good golfer, but can do one thing well. Hit the ball really far. With this in mind I set out to find the best distance golf ball on the market to use as my new go to ball.
In researching all the distance golf balls available on the market, I was surprised to see they were all constructed differently. You would think that if they all have the same goal of distance, they would be more similar than different. So instead, I researched all the components of a golf ball and what makes it go farther. Based on this research, I came to the conclusion that a high compression core, a 4-piece construction, and a hard surlyn outer layer would be ideal for pure distance. To my surprise, no one was producing a golf ball of this exact construction! I found a manufacturer that could produce the ball to spec, had samples made, and was thrilled with how they performed. The construction created a hard feel golf ball that produced longer, straighter shots unlike any other golf ball I had played.
I never resonated with the stuffy, uptight vibes of golf. My biggest priority is to have fun, hit some great shots, and hopefully card a decent score. Wanting to get away from the pretentious feel of other brands, the name practically picked itself when I discovered the trademark for Piss Missile was available. The first production run was scheduled with what we thought would be enough inventory to last a year. We launched May 13th of 2024, and were sold out within two weeks. We doubled the production run, and sold out again. We doubled that production run size, and sold out once again. At this point, I went all in and we've been ripping ever since.
