Does the lack of grip on the painted NBA logo and word bother you? I'd like some opinions before opening and using this ball.

Sorry I can't say The ball leaked air. Only played with it once and couldn't get a feel for it

The logo really has not bothered me in my use. I do agree it appears a lil large but it really doesn't detract from the look. I've gotten a lot of compliments about mine.

Personally when you're setting up the rim you can adjust the breakaway spring before enclosing it. I tightened the hell out of it. Also, I have an additional amount of 150 pounds sitting on the base, sandbags/cinder blocks. It sounds good and doesn't shake like it's going to fall apart. I own 5 basketballs and even with multiple shots still smooth and consistent. Like I said it depends who's setting it up and to what liking, I don't play when it comes down to building things the correct way. Good luck.

M. Gabriele. Your question about stock and grip removal. To the best of my knowledge no. But I haven't tried to. It looks to me that stock is molded into the frame. Great gun to shot. Have fun and shot wisely. Dean.

I have had mine for 4 months and have had NO problems..It sound like you need to add a lot more air to your ball.

I haven't had a problem with the grip. It's made of rubber and plastic, and the rubber is surprisingly not grippy, but it doesn't seem to slide around much. I like the feel of the rubber though

I found that a bit disconcerting, since I owned three of the earlier models - and was almost afraid that it was going to come off in my hand. Been using it for going on two years and it has never caused a problem, though. You are right, it does FEEL weird!

I'm not exactly a pro bowler and nearly had a stroke when I saw the price tags on the bowling balls in the pro shop. I really like this ball because the price was extremely reasonable and (to me) it has a good "feel" to it. I felt it was a good purchase. Hope this helps.

I have the kids version that is yellow. And yes it works great. Its been dropped from the bball stands at a game and I knew it would be broken but it was fine not a scratch.

What's the damage? If it's to the squishy grip, there's probably not much they can do because it would require disassembly of all the parts that are riveted onto the bar through the grip material. However, if that's your issue, I did a pretty nice looking repair of my single BOB where the grip got torn using tennis racquet grip. (You can pick up raquet grip at just about any sporting goods store.) I just wrapped the whole thing. It looks nice, and is less prone to tears compared to the original material.

smooth. One of my favorite picks. I dont have any problems holding them. You can always take a paper hole punch to help to grip it better is its such a big problem

This picture is a bit odd. All I know is the ball on mine is almost identical to the picture but there is only the emblem on the top. A closer look at this picture shows the word HURST wrapped around it. Mine had no such lettering, just the emblem on the top. Black, silver, and red; same as the official emblem.

I actually hate it when the ball gets bigger as the weight gets higher. It makes it so much harder to hold if you're doing things like Russian twists, etc. keeping them the same size increases the weight effectively but also makes it easier to use because its easier to hold

I'd return it as defective. Once you have it flush with the ball it should lock in place and be very difficult to remove.

dear friend, I do use the ball once in a while, still is working but I have no idea how long it will last. This bold is still the coolest thing since sliced bread.

Yes, the Uni-Ball pen does have a nice grip, for my hand... Obviously, everyone's grip is different. All I can say is buy one pack and if you feel comfortable working with the Uni-Ball, then purchase additional packs. I hope this helps your decision. Rick
