Sure I live in England, not Cuba!
But in England we have something called 'Trading Standards' and if something that states e.g. 25lbs (12.5kgs) then that is what I expect to have.
So for Softballs to state "Max 375lbs" ".44COR" then I expect the same consistency from them.
Is it that balls may be up a Max of 375lbs, so many are a lesser compression, and they can manufacture them at whatever compression they wish to, up to a max of 375?
