Title: Favorite Ball?
Post by: bowler838 on May 18, 2015, 10:35:38 AM: Since the season for everyone is pretty much winding down, what was everyone's favorite ball to throw this past season?

Mine was the Melee as I won my first PBA Regional title with it and the LT-48 has made me look good at tournaments a lot this past season.

Post by: SVstar34 on May 18, 2015, 11:18:12 AM: Columbia 300 Blur Pearl. Shot 299/855 in March and shot pretty consistently with it all year.

The cover has died on it now though even with trying multiple things to bring it back so the Visionary Raven and Storm Ride have quickly risen to my favorites in the short time I've had them

Post by: Josey Wales on May 18, 2015, 11:50:06 AM: Melee Jab. Great piece and worked really well on almost everything. Threw it all but 6 frames in our local round-the-town tournament covering 3 different houses totaling 16 games.

C-System Versa Max is still good option for me as well.

Motiv TAG for me also ... Was the RAGE, but since getting the TAG, it has become my favorite ball.

Post by: tommymo on May 18, 2015, 07:09:51 PM: Brunswick ball. . . . It's a tie between the Mastermind Intellect and Fortera Intrigue. Although, the Jab, Rhino and Cross were awesome for me too.

Post by: billdozer on May 18, 2015, 11:19:00 PM: Wood: freak'n frantic-ended up being very clutch for me this season.

Synthetics: hyroad solid-the fe2 flares really well and gets the ball into a great roll

Overall: Sinister-its got a unique smooth reaction, plus I won the biggest sidepot of my life with it. $1000 bones!

The same for me. This ball saved my season. It's just a great smooth reaction, but still retains the hitting power. I may buy a second one to squirrel away in case they discontinue it.
