Title: I need help with a ball!!!
Post by: pbaexp12 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?

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.
