The lesson...

    Effects of Bowl Damage

    Hi, How much of an effect would a hole/scratch, around 2mm deep and 5mm diameter (probably by a loose screw or something), have on the ball? it is pretty close to my track... ps. would this increase absorption of oil into the pourus material of the ball? is that a problem?
