Please stop placing the pins straight up on the Maxims, you're making them hard to drill over the label.

Thanks

I know, but we have a full stock of Maxims.

Zones cost a few bucks less too, but its hard to phase out stuff like that.

I think one color at a time, I'll put them on special and bring in a similar colored Zone.

Another gripe I have with Ebonite is their core material. Even with razor sharp bits, you get chatter and it is a NIGHTMARE to punch!

Ebonite polyester balls smell awful too, just a peculiar scent.

When they discontinued their ENTIRE ball line (cat series and all), my boss had about enough of it. Didn't renew Striking FX, but we did manage to renew our Brunswick Pro Source. LOL

Can't compete with the sales of the Classic Zone, BVP and Grooves!

lol so true about the power grooves, our distributor was constantly running out. no one was touching the tornados with those ugly colors.

the color shifting zones have gone on sale at the distributors, for some reason they didn't sell, but they look goregous! we just bought a few cases to use as low weight house balls.
