One notable difference with TAP's set is that they have a 21oz ball whereas the PlyoBombs and Plyocare Balls do not. And the latter sets have 70oz balls whereas the TAP set does not.
So, if your throwing program requires a 21oz ball, TAP might be your only option.
And of course, one of the biggest differences is in warranty. PlyoBombs have 365 days warranty while the Plyocare Balls and TAP are both 90 days.
As always, follow up with your own research and good luck!
