I was having a discussion about which cue ball will be used at the BCA this year... and I couldn't remember what we played with last year?!

Will it be the green logo aramith ball or a red circle cue ball?
Thank you :)

Okay... so far 15 visits to this thread, and no one can offer up an answer(???) Come on people... help me out here :P
 
last year was the plain white cue ball with the little logo on, for me that ball was heavier that the spotted pro cup cue ball that we use over here in the uk

i read on the bca leaflet what is on the press release that the spotted white will be used,
 
Thanks for the responses guys :)
Much appreciated!

Craig: I think if they used the spotted (polka dotted) ball... it will only be in the pro event.
Don't quote me on it, but they have never used the "spotted" ball on the bar boxes at the BCA in the past. At least the past 7 years that I've been there.
It's either the green logo aramith ball ( logo looks like a green clover ) or the red circle cue ball ( a small hollow red circle ).

:) Either way, I can't wait to play! :)
 
Red circle.
