Title says it all. Is this a plastic or rubber ball? Cant find any info on it.

The U Dot line was the line for awhile when it came out. From what I recall the two best were the Slate and Wine U Dot. I am willing to say some of the best Urethane balls of all times.

I think the Black U-Dot was the best of all.  This was a benchmark ball that everyone had in their bag.  Pete McCordic and Bob Benoit shot televised 300's with it.

Agreed.  It's maybe once in a blue moon that I see a Wine or Slate on the ball return, but I know quite a few people who still throw the Black.

Shot my only PBA 300 in 88 with a wine U-dot. Black U-dot one one of the best balls of its time.
