I have an echo star boss that i love but after about a week or two it was already starting to get broken in.

I also have two organic wizards and it seems like I take a big chunk out of them every week from hitting the basket.

Just because they're recycled doesnt mean they should break in this fast, I was wondering if anybody knew why

Probably because they are recycled.

Because it is USED!

Know what you throw. . .

Yea but they are all remolded, so they still come from the factory new.

recycled star plastic shouldn't beat in like dx

Cause you hit too many trees per round :-)

haha whatever. I guess my putter hits more chains than anybody else, that's why it wears in so fast lol

Molded plastics contain chemicals which make them more flexible, durable and pliable. They are called "plasticizers," (no kidding) and are typically phosphate or phthalate based. Plasticizers are leached out from the plastc by UV (sunlight) and by heat (re-molding). Unless these compounds are replaced, prior to re-molding, they are present at a lower level than in the original plastic. This may be more than you really wanted to know. MAM

As I said, the plastic is USED, as in all the techno detail above, thuis missing the original formulations! Baring the technical explination, what I said was correct!

Think about it!

So, in actuality, I DID know what I am talking about!

Just sayin'
