| Review: |
This is really, really good paint. I got my wife to pick up two cases of this before I left on vacation. I only noticed one small flat spot in a bag. The size was very consistent and very round. The only flyer I've had out of the first case was the second ball I shot when I first got it. All the rest have flown straight as an arrow. The day after I arrived at my mom's house, I shot a hopperful at reeds on the other side of a pond located behind her house. I was consistently hitting reeds the size of a fat kindergarten pencil at a distance of about 75' at least once every five shots.
When I got to use it on the field, the accuracy was just as good. I was hitting barrel tips poking around bunkers from the fifty. I even broke one on a harness flap that was sticking out. Everyone has a time where an opponent has left something sticking out, and try as you might, you can't hit it to save your life. I did not have this problem all day long. Walking the trigger this paint comes out in a straight line and maintains a tight grouping downfield.
It also breaks every single time. And I mean everytime. I dropped tested four of them from six foot on a concrete floor. One broke on the first drop, the other three broke about the third drop. Like I said, I broke one on a harness flap. The fill is super bright pink. If you try wiping it , the break just smears and gets bigger. You can see this stuff break from across the field. The fil is so bright you can see it through the shell, which gives the ball kind of a pearlescent effect.
I'd also like to note that the day i played with it was extremely humid. The humidity did not seem to affect it.

| Conclusion: |
Reading back over my review I make this paint sound like the wonder ball. But that's how it performed. If you can get it, I'd say do so. Even for rec ball I've always believed it to be more economical to buy a more expensive paint, because you use less paint in the end. Use this stuff and I think you'll agree. You'll hit what your aiming at, it'll break the first time, and there's no wiping it. |
