Nice vid.  I couldn't see a huge amount of difference between the balls but I can tell that:

-Blast Zone Pin High: Quick spin up, tons of revs in the midlane and control off the spot.  The Sauce seemed to delay the burn of energy and made it more continuous.

-Blast Zone Rico:  Even quicker revs in the midlane(I like alot!), seemed like more flare down the lane for a stronger motion in back.

-The Red Zone:  Skid past the spot that both Blast Zones revved up at and rolled more forward and weaker at the breakpoint.

-Classic Zone:  Skid the longest and saved more energy to make the move down lane.

Here's the million dollar question though.  Say you were at the start of a tournament on that pattern you're on, which of the 4 balls would you start out with and what did you see out of it that gave it the edge over the others on the fresh shot?

I'd more than likely start with the strongest and smoothest, which would be the Rico Blast Zone. It all really depends on the volume! Sometimes the Classic Zone is enough ball to start, but if not, I've used the Rico Inferno.

Did you stand in the same spot when comparing balls? How much, if any, did you move around to make the balls get to the pocket? All four balls were in the pocket and were close to the same target on the lanes. More info please.

Other than that, your game looks good from the fouline on. I see that your slide foot is more solid now. Good stuff. Your ball roll looks good also. No wonder you're having some success lately in the Regionals. Now go win.

By the way, Brunswick sells a pretty good polish also.....Rough Buff. I save the High Gloss for the plastics.

Why does it look like every ball your throw has the same reaction ?

I was looking threw some of the vids and it looks like they all have the same reaction. I'm guessing that since your bowling of a THS they look the same ?


...but the vids are of nice quality

Nice vid Nick..

So what are Ur overall thoughts on the Blast Zone?

Can U compare the OOB BZ to Ur Strike Zone?
And what do U think of the OOB BZ compared to the polished/Sauced one?

How bout Blast Zone vs Total Inferno?
