Is there a difference between all of the Made in China 40+ balls? Someone told me that they are all made in 1 factory. Is that true?

I believe there are 2 factories, one owned by DHS, the other one owned by Double Fish. And they brand label for many other brands. But even if they are from the same 2 factories, it doesn't make them "all the same". Different brands will have different quality standards, or may want the balls to be slightly different. Of course competition balls have to be within competition specs

No particular difference at all. They all are being made of the same material, ABS plastics.

Exactly right. There is quite a difference between the different brand balls, all feel a little different, some a lot different. Especially the Double Fish balls feel totally different and have a different surface texture.

I think I am becoming immune to ball differences. As long as the same ball is used at a tournament, I am happy.
