Why is my ball so laggy?

So, I have this throwable ball but it’s seems to move fairly choppily at the beginning, does anyone know why?

Its network owner is probably set to the server. You can set it to the player throwing the ball, so it will be smoother for them. But it will still be laggy for other players. There isn’t a simple way to fix that.
