Sports reviews of Wilson F1100 Official NFL Game Football
Customer Review: NO WONDER THE NFL USES THEM!!!!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
No wonder the NFL uses them. I received my F1100 NFL ball today and was skeptical at first after reading mixed reviews on this item. I took it out of the box and it was slick and hard. I followed the care instructions for cleaning and restoring the tack, and after wiping with a damp cloth and going over it with a shoe brush it is the best feeling ball i have ever had. The ball is official size so it can be big for average hands, but what do you expect, Its meant for professionals.
Bottom Line: I would not recommend this ball for kids, but if you and the fellas are going out for a weekend game of pick up ball I think you will enjoy playing with this ball. My recommendation for this ball is also for high school and up. Not only for the kid looking to elevate his game with and official size ball but also the "Joe the Plumber"{LOL} who only plays on the weekend..
Customer Review: Great Football
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I bought this football about 6 months ago, and it has held up pretty good. I agree, you must have medium-large hands to throw this. It is easy to catch, and you will not drop as many passes. It is somewhate hard to run with though. It holds up very nice, it has no real signs of wear. I recommend it. It takes a while to get used to, but what you do it will be worth it. If you throw right, it will launch a perfect spiral. You can usually hit at least 35 yards, and more if you are stronger. It stays pumped well, and is easy to put air into. However, it is next to impossible to throw if the ball is wet or your hands are sweaty {I was playing a game where it started to rain, I could barely throw it}
Still a good buy.
Customer Review: Worth every penny
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
The moment I opened the box, the leather smell that hit my nose, I instantly knew this ball was made for champions. It has a great grip, feels amazingly sturdy and durable. You haven't played with a football until you play with this one. The box also comes with care instructions on how to bring back the tackiness, if lost. This football is so high quality, that feels like a collectible, instead of an item you play with. Every football fan, collector and enthusiast should get this football, and at $58 it's a steal! And yes, the football feels kinda "hard", but what do you expect? This is no child's toy, this is a 100% Professional level football. And once again, you haven't played with a football until you try this one!Customer Review: The real thing
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
This is THE ACTUAL BALL that the professionals of the NFL use, so how can you give it anything other than five stars. This is like driving Jeff Gordon's stockcar or swinging Barry Bonds' bat -- it may not be the most comfortable for you to use but it's the real deal. If you're buying a ball for a kid, get something easier on the hands. But this is like having the actual ball that Eli Manning threw and which David Tyree caught with his head.Customer Review: Simply Awesome Ball!

I'm from The Netherlands so not really familiar with american football (as of yet) but more with real football we play here. But i can savely say that this ball is simply excellent!!! I recommend this ball to everyone in de US as well as in Holland and the rest of Europe (the whole world even), top quality! The grip, weight and size are just perfect and you can through it really far..like 45-50 meters at least(don't know in yards).
