Fantastic stuff. I've never had a problem with the pellets sticking to the ball. The first year or two are the worst for "pellet spray" but after that, it calms down. It is soft, traction is fantastic, it doesn't freeze like AstroTurf (not a problem for you, Mike) and there is less glare.

The only problem I have found is the heat it generates on a sunny day early in the season. If you look at it straight down, it looks more black than green, and those black rubber things absorb heat like crazy and radiates it back up at you.

Otherwise, very easy on the feet, knees and back.
