I need help with a ball!!!
« on: September 06, 2011, 03:53:39 AM »
  My favorite ball a jigsaw trap has cracked all around and I want to know if someone knows how it can be fixed.  The ball started cracking from the thumb and has gone completely around and back to the span center.  I have a300 game on this ball and really want to fix it.  Any ideas?

My email address has no space the space is the underscore key...

2nd 300 with WILD THING!!
3rd 300 game shot with JIGSAW TRAP!!

Beans posted here in the last year or so that he had fixed a ball that did that. As I recall, he didn't seem to think it was worth the cost, but if you contact him, he can give you the details.

His screen name here is BeansProShop

No way to properly fix a ball that is cracked all the way around. It will eventually just crack in half. I had a ball do that same thing just sitting on the floor during the summer. I found it last week, I should have known better as this as happened to me a couple times before.
 
If you like the ball, just find another one and lay it out just like the one you have now..

I had a Rhino Pro Tour Edition in the shop that cracked completely around the ball.  I took a small hand drill bit and drilled into the crack 1/4" completely around the ball and plugged it normally.  It was extremely time consuming and messy but I did end up shooting a 780 with that ball.  It rolled just fine.
