    Default Forza Redline, Holy chemical smell Batman!

    Went by the pro-shop today to get a quote on some equipment, while there He showed me a Motiv Forza Redline "Demo" (actually has demo stamped on it) ball they just sent him.

    He opened the box and pulled that thing out of the plastic bag, OMG It smelled like a bucket of paint. It was like it just came out of the mold.

    Hope the rest of them don't smell like that!

    I was at my pro shop tonight getting a new roto grip haywire drilled and he had one of those balls there and had me take a wiff. What strong paint or thinner smell. Steve

    Maybe storm should start getting other brands on board the whole scent thing. I'd love fresh baking smell.

    I think that all of you should quit smelling your balls and concentrate on throwing strikes with them! LOL

    Kinda hard not to smell them when you open your bag and the smell is overwhelming. My IQ Tour Fusion is actually my car air freshener, it is that strong.
