    hello all

    background (feel free to skip ahead to the question below):
    i play on artificial grass a few times a week. because we buy our game balls collectively, in the past we've always used top of the line ('pro' / match balls). while they do OK on the AG and the texture is great on those balls, they pop more than one would like at $150 per and are somewhat bouncier than i would like. after trying a couple of different options, we've been very happy with the Nike Elite AG ball. when it was in production it was selling for a reasonable price and the sightlier heavier ball works very well on AG making bounces much more natural and comparable to a real grass situation. since that ball is no longer in production, i'm looking for alternatives.

    any AG-friendly recommendations? cost is important because of wear and tear (not so much from the grass but other features of the building: ceiling beams, etc) but so is quality (would especially like to find something that is AG specific to avoid the bounciness problem). thanks
