MOTIV starts Jackal Replacement program

[epiepenburg]

I guess i'm new to this story but why is motiv doing this?

Two Motiv balls were ruled to be illegal for play by the USBC, they were not within spec and weren't the spec Motiv said they were.

Why have a lawsuit though? Also hasn't the Jackal been out for a long while.

At this point I think the lawsuit is all conjecture.

Both balls have been out for awhile, but something changed between when they were released (in spec) and a few weeks ago when the USBC tested them (they were out of spec). So, the USBC pulled their approval and the balls can no longer be used. Motiv is working on fixing the issue and/or has begun replacing balls for owners who now can't use them in USBC play.
