Who makes Lane 1 Balls
« on: February 12, 2007, 08:13:30 AM »
I was wondering if lane 1 had another company make their coverstocks like brunswick makes morich's. If not, how do they hold up?

Colombia makes their coverstocks. It use to be Brunswick, but they signed a Contract with colombia sometime in the Summer, now with the whole Ebonite/Colombia deal, no one is for sure on what is going to happen with Lane #1

At the very beginning, Lane #1 and Columbia worked together, but I don't know how many balls they did covers for.  Just about everything up until recently had Brunswick covers on them.  The red XXXL's, Uranium HRG's and G Force's have Columbia covers on them.  Lane #1 might be in limbo right now since Ebonite bought Columbia.  It's hard to say what will happen in the future.  I've not heard any complaints of Lane #1's cover stock life.
