Pickleball Durability


Looking at the broken ball basket at Robron, its obvious that Franklin X-40 balls, even though more popular to play with, are far less durable than Selkirk Onyx outdoor balls. The new Lifetime brand outdoor balls have really good reviews for durability and playability. I'm wondering if anyone here has given them a try....Might be time to switch.

Even though I am not outside there very much ( everyone knows why ) . Ever since the courts opened I have used the Cities recommended Pickleball the ONIX G-2 Fuse Outdoor Pickleball . Yes , they are a little slower ( which this old fart likes ) and they are rated for 4.5 and under players and I have only seen a few break , most over time just go soft and then I give them to my neighbours dog to play with and chew LOL . Plus , they are allot quieter ball then the Franklin 40 and the Onix Dura 40 Pickleballs . This may have to be considered in the future . Who knows ??
