Title: Low-end composite ball
Product review: I purchased this ball because I was looking for an affordable replacement for my decade-old "Duke" leather ball; I just don't have the money for another one right now. In my experience, composite footballs come in two varieties: soft-to-the-touch and hard-to-the-touch. The "hard" composite leather feels more like the rubber used for cheap outdoor basketballs, and the "soft" variety feel much more like real leather.This football is the "hard" variety, and I can't say I would recommend it unless that happens to be what you are looking for. To it's credit, it is holding together well and came as described. It throws well, but is relatively difficult to catch because of the poor-quality composite it is made with.Having been spoiled by owning a leather ball for so long, I just couldn't stick with this one. I've already replaced it with one that I hope will be of the "soft" composite variety, and will likely end up donating this one to a local school or something.
