When do you buy new balls?
« on: June 20, 2005, 05:36:00 AM »
How often do you buy a new ball?  What was the last you've bought?  When do you know it's time?

I bought my first ball two years ago: Target Zone
I bought my second ball last year: Power Groove

That's all I have or need right now, but what/why/how do you do it?

The only balls in my hands are Brunswicks.

I'm one of the extremes.  I've bought 11 balls in the last 5 months from this website.  Just bought a power groove dry/r today.  Trying to sell some of them right now, but I'm going to buy the new inferno when it comes out next month too.

It just seriously depends on what i want the ball to do and what's out there.

Right now since I have HUGE gaps between my balls I buy a new one when ever I get money. They don't actually have to be the newest ball. For example, I am going to but an Original Inferno and Blazing Inferno while I buy a Strike Zone and the Smoking Inferno.

I have bought over 25 balls used from members on this site in the last year as well as sold some. I have bought several new ones online in that same time.

i usually buy a new arsenal at the end of july just before fall leagues start. this year was an exception: i bought a nemesis to use over the summer and i bought an absolute inferno and have tried it out. it'll go back in the bag till fall.
