  I go to purchase the "Halloween" ball via my equipment tab, but it isn't in the Pro Shop to purchase. Why is this? It used to be, during the Halloween season, but isn't available from what I am seeing now. I got one for playing today but would like to buy more.

  Why would you want to buy more? The durability is awful and the higher spin negates the extra distance making it only a decent ball.

  Didn't there used to be a little trick for acquiring balls that weren't in the shop. Either via the 'gift' method at the end of an MP game or using the in-game 'this is your last ball of this type' pop-up.

  I wouldn't want to know what they would cost LOL.
  
  They are basically the L48 Nike ball (distance and spin wise) but have the 2.5 meter speed and the durability of a WGT ball LOL.
  
  
  Had no last ball pop-up in game so that won't work.

  There was that option at one time Scott, but it was ended a while ago.
