Our review. This boule used to be called the Rolls Royce of boules but I think that may have been a slight copyright infringement. When you look at the F.I.P.J.P rules it becomes clear the boule need to be round, made of metal and have weight and size limitations. If you had no limit to making the very best boule to fill this criteria my guess is you would come up with the ATX. Everything about this boule harnesses cutting edge technology, engineering and performance. I think Rolls Royce would say the same about their products. Once you have played with this boule it is going to be a difficult decision to move to any other boule. It does everything you want it to. The balance is amazing and the carreau rate is good. The wear of the boule stands up to a lot of play. Maybe you would move to a softer boule for shooting but you may end up buying a set every year. Told you it was a difficult decision. The pinnacle of Obut's range.
