Really? I've had exactly one underinflated ball in the 11 years I've officiated in my current location.

Agree....they're just not common. I carry a needle and use it a few times a year.

Hmmm.... you're not alone here, either. Could be me.

Drop test that I've been doing: Drop the ball from eye level. On its way down, flex your arm. It the ball bounces high enough to touch your arm, it's inflated enough.
