RC5
« on: February 07, 2009, 04:35:45 AM »
Bought an RC5 from Ebay, never tried a rubber ball before...

It has to be the worst smelling compound ever invented.  My Pro Shop still stinks...

I remember that ball and we drilled several back in the day and I was never so glad when Roto came out with the UC2. The RC5 smelled worse than the X2 which was a harder rubber, but rolled really good. Good luck with your RC5, Bruce
