Rugby style tennis balls? (Read 1436 times)

Ptolemy Tiro Offline Slinging tennis balls! Posts: 39 England Gender:	Rugby style tennis balls? May 27^th, 2013 at 1:32pm I know I've seen a picture of one somewhere, and I was wondering if anyone knows what they're actually called? Because of their shape similarity to glandes, I want to get a few and see how they perform.

Reply #1 - May 27^th, 2013 at 1:45pm I know about rugby ball shaped golf balls from CHOT, but not tennis balls. I have already tried the mini American footballs but they always wobble when they are slung. I think they are too large.

Reply #2 - May 27^th, 2013 at 3:32pm never seen ovoid tennis balls. Not even in a pound shop ! The ovoid golf balls were originally invented for cross golf, a golf variant that originated in new zealand and never really seemd to take off.

Reply #3 - May 27^th, 2013 at 7:09pm The only thing I can find is a kong dog toy: But I know that Kong squeaker toys are far too light for slinging and I'm sure I've seen a proper tennis ball style construction but I can't for the life of me remember where is was.

I would just post the pic, but it won't let me download and post it.
