It would be nice if the boule bags and magnetic lifters are available
more than happy with them
Clear description and advice on how to choose the appropriate size Easy ordering system and amazing delivery particularly as it was the Xmas season and my purchase arrived on exactly the date stated.
Excellent product which I have used approximately 5 times now. No scratches like cheaper products. Arrived 2 days after I ordered them. Excellent service and highly recommended.
The boules are very good to use as both pointer and shooter. The smooth finish is now gaining some battle scars as all boules do. They are well weighted and comfortable in the hand. The coche being yellow polyurethane plastic doesn't suffer from the problems others with only a surface colour do, that is chipping and wear making some difficult to see after a lot of use. I expect this set will last a lifetime ands far I've enjoyed using them.
The boiled I bought are a joy to use.
Satisfied with boules, however it is a shame there are no smaller diameter boules. My hands are small so a 630 or 650 would have been perfect
Great to play with good value
I'm only a novice player [3 months] and this is my first set of proper boules. They feel well made and I think they will give many years of service. They were well packaged and the coche is good as well.
Really pleased with these boules. Great price for starters. Haven't had long enough to give review on durability. Absolutely perfect for beginners . Lets you see if you are going to like the sport without spending alot.
Great job
very good
Great value for novice boules persons.
Sent the wrong size. Why?
Bought a set of these 2 weeks ago. really happy with them - used them allot in that time on a variety of surfaces. great finish - wears well, roll well, good choice of size and weight. I've only marked them down as they do not come with a bag.

How to choose the right petanque boule
Your choice of petanque boule should be based on several factors.Your playing style (pointer, shooter, all-rounder) will determine:- the required bounce quality (hard, semi-soft, soft, or very soft) - the weight of your boule (heavier for pointers and lighter for shooters) The size of your hand will determine the diameter of the boule.
What does hardness mean for a petanque boule?
The boule's hardness is expressed in the ROCKWELL ”HRC” unit or in kg/mm².For example, 45 HRC corresponds to 321.9 lbs/mm². The higher the number, the harder the boule. The harder the boule, the less likely it is to get damaged, and the higher its elasticity, and vice versa.
How are competition-approved geologic boules made
Our competition petanque boules are hollow. These are the steps of our manufacturing process: - A lump of steel heated to +/- 1832°F is flattened and then stamped or forged into a hemisphere - These hemispheres are machined inside, welded together, and rotated until they are spherical. - The boule is then engraved, baked, and dipped into water, which will determine its hardness. - Finally, they are polished or varnished and then inspected.
How to clean your petanque boules?
After each match, wipe off dust with a clean cloth. Once a month, oil your petanque boules to prevent them from rusting. Cleaning regularly lengthens the lifespan of your petanque boules while also ensuring the quality of your match.
Product testing
The petanque boules are both tested in our labs and durably on practice pistes by our community of enthusiasts.
