what is the difference between this herding ball and other varsity balls?

Do like the fact that this is well made and will not puncture. Have had some that have eventually punctured or cracked.

Not sure about other specific herding balls, my suspicion is that any hard plastic ball could potentially damage teeth. My dog was definitely ocd with this one and constantly abraded her canines against the surface. Hope this helps.

It is actually like a standard basketball - rubber. It's not foamy at all and makes a good amount of noise when bounced on linoleum. You could purchase a foam ball to use in place of the included ball. My son uses a variety of different balls.

Yes, these are those balls. I picked up the baseball sized ones. I have been working out with them with my two boys and one of there cousins. We have access to a gym and our work outs are very intense. I have noticed a great deal difference in the swing of all three boys since using the TC Balls. Their contact is much more solid, bat speed extremely quicker, and the ball just jumps off their bats. If used properly and regularly the returns on your investment will pay off in folds.

I have no idea what a bosu ball is. It would be best to call Coleman for your answer.

Yes this claw ball pick up is different from the other four. I have one of these and it works well. I had misunderstood the question and answered before seeing the other four

Baden Elite is the official High School Basketball for State competition for many states and is a great ball. The Evolution is also a good ball. Both have good tack/grip, the Evolution is sometimes much softer than the Baden Elite. Our High School Team and my AAU Teams prefer Baden. Can't miss with either ball.

I don't recommend it for varsity level softball. The machine throws with an overhand motion, opposite of what she'd face in competition. The compromise is OK for beginning softball players, but not high school level.

It's a very hard plastic ball which is too large for your dog to bite that they play with in your yard. If they push the ball around with their teeth, as in biting at it as it rolls, it will wear their teeth down. 3 of my dogs have severely worn down teeth because of this ball. Had I known this I would have NEVER bought it. I posted pictures on one of the Varsity Ball postings.

Some of the smaller balls are made from a different material. We have a 6" and 3 10" tug and tosses, I'm not sure if the 8" is the squishy like the 10" or harder like the 4" and 6". The 6" and 8" bounce and play are made from the squishy materiel like the 10" tug and toss. My dogs are both German shepherds, the female sometimes gets the 8" one stuck in her jaws and has to use her foot to get it out. The 6" one doesn't give her a problem. The dogs like the squishier ones better - they make more of a woosh than a popping sound like the harder jollyballs.

The ball is a regular sized basketball. My son loves it although does not play with it a lot on outdoor courts because he does not want to wear off the cool bulls logo.Go Bulls!

No! It is lighter. It also looks smaller than the wire ones but fits the same number of balls.

The Varsity ball is very heavy. I paid $50 for it and it is just sitting out in the yard. They certainly can't pop it but my 56 lb. Aussie does not play with it. Bad purchase.

no, each will differ slightly based on the weight. The 12 is as big as a basketball, 10 a little bigger than a soccerball.

I own both balls. I prefer the feel of the evolution when new as it's nice and soft. It's also a bit lighter; not a lot, but noticeable. But after a short time the tackiness of my evolution wore off and got rather slippery. The solution isn't as soft and a bit more "harsh" but maintains the feel for much longer. I'd recommend giving both a feel.

Laney, I really don't know about the construction. I suppose the boxes would tell you all you need to know. I've been a real fan of this ball, but recently switched to the Wilson Staff that is 50 compression. They definitely stop on the green but seem to be longer.

I purchased this because of the connection to the movie. However limited my experience with volleyballs might be, I suppose I would describe this as "softer" than other volleyballs. It is NOT a novelty ball like Nerf, however.

I like that the ball is on the side and it is wireless. They are the same thing ( make and model ) from what I saw.
