Brunswick quality now being made in Mexico ?
« on: March 04, 2010, 06:46:45 AM »
Well I was set on a diamondback until I just heard a local pro shop guy saying he stopped selling them because 60% of them were returned from being defective.  Such as the core not being filled or there are air pockets inside the ball itself where alot of ppl have found air holes some as big as a pencil when drilling out the finger holes.  

Is this a concern because I'm on my way to order a ball now but don't want to deal with these issues at all

Just getting a sense from the forums of who Mo is I don't think he would have his balls made by a sh!tty company or put up with much nonsense if there were problems..

Products or parts of products have been make in Mexico for
decades.  While I dislike seeing jobs go to Mexico or any foreign
country it is now a way of life.
Most textiles like t-shirts and underwear are sewn and assembled
in Mexico but say made in USA because the cotton was grown here
and the fabric was sent to Mexico.

Quality is all about the specs and equipment given the manufacturer
by the buyer and not the people doing the work.  A bowling ball
made in Mexico should be exactly the same as one made in the USA.

When that email came out from bowlingball.com I order a levrg, ntense, and nsane with coupon it was $181($60 each) shipped to the house.

They all look great. Only drilled the levrg so far. Others will probably wait till next season.
