Who are these competition boules for?

Some good reasons to choose this triplet of boules

All Boulenciel boules, whether made of carbon steel or stainless steel, benefit from excellent balance. Boulenciel is a former professional in the aerospace industry, which has provided the company with machines capable of achieving exceptional precision and extreme quality. Using this advanced equipment, the manufacturer turns both the inner and outer surfaces of each boule, followed by a final adjustment, which is unique to Boulenciel.

All of these manufacturing steps are exclusive to Boulenciel, and they are applied to all their boules, including Venus Carbone, Venus Inox, Mars Inox, Saturne Carbone, Saturne Inox, and the Mercure range in both carbon steel and stainless steel. It’s also important to note that these boules have a minimal recoil, which allows for both a point plombé and an exceptional carreau shot.

Maintenance tips for this competition boule

The Boulenciel Mars Carbone boules come with a polishing cloth and a jack for free. This cloth will be essential since carbon steel boules require constant maintenance. They oxidize easily, so it’s important to clean the boules after each use. Additionally, be sure to polish them with gun oil or vaseline to ensure their durability.
