My pro shop always said that a bridge crack is no problem. Don't bother to get it fixed, it will not hurt anything.

That's the weakest part of the ball so it's fairly common. I'd wait until it gets worse then have your pro shop fix it. The reason I say wait is because sometimes they don't get worse and you've saved your money.

the quick fix, is to pull your grips out and take some super glue and run it down and into the crack.. let it dry and do it again.. when it has fully dried put your grips back in.. this is just a quick fix, you might get a couple games out of it or you might get another season depending on how bad it is cracked.. the correct way to fix it would be to take it to a shop and get the holes drilled out and plugged, then drill it again.. hope this helps..  slashrr69
