Sports reviews of Park & Sun BB-109 Bocce Pro Set
Customer Review: Exactly what I ordered!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
The item was exactly what I ordered and what I wanted. Great buy for your money!Customer Review: Recommended for the price
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
I played bocce at the beach for the first time a couple of months ago, and I was hooked. I went home and immediately did hours of research to find the best one for the price. This set won out in the end. So I played with this one and another Sportcraft (100 mm black / red) one, and the quality was there for both of them, but I am satisfied that I ordered this set because of the 4 colors and the slightly larger (109mm) size. Let me be brief --
Pros:
1) high quality material
2) weighted really nicely, nice size too
3) 4 colors, then each 2 bocce balls of the same color are differentiated by different markings, making it possible for up to 8 different people to play. I have needed 8 balls a couple of times, so this alone has made this set worth it.
4) Great pallino and measuring device
Cons:
1) cheap bag. I've seen better from cheaper sets at the store. The bag will not likely outlast the set.
2) Paint wear pretty quickly.
--Pro: who cares?! It adds character!
I enjoyed my set so much after the first few uses, that I ordered one from Amazon for my father's birthday. He loves it, and he will be able to play it with his grandkids which shows the versatility of this game.
Bonus tip: Free trial of Amazon prime got it to me next day with just a few bucks more. Well worth it!
Customer Review: Really heavy Bocce set
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
I am an amateur Bocce player. These Bocce balls are REALLY heavy -- too heavy for my comfort, as a strictly-for-fun player. For me, they are too heavy to carry around and too heavy to throw. Perhaps they are more suited to more serious players.Customer Review: Nice set but no rules included!
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
The set itself is of really high quality. I like the carrying case, makes taking it down to the beach easy. On the downside there are no 'rules of the game' included, so unless you know the rules you just have to make up your own!Customer Review: Heavy & big
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
I didn't realize just how heavy & big this set is. Had I done so, I probably would have bought a smaller size ball. That said, of course the quality, etc. is excellent.
