Title: Series of my life /w Red Zone
Post by: D Scott Johnson on February 15, 2007, 04:08:20 AM: I don't do this usually but I just thought I would do a little brag. Last night in league I shot the series of my life.

289-269-300 = 858

Three 10 pins is all I shot last night. 32 of 35 strikes, including the last 18 in a row.

Last two weeks since I got my Red Zone I've had 795 & 858 in my Wednesday night league. To say the ball matches up to my game pretty well for me is an understatement. It is one of the most predictable balls I have ever thrown, keeps the pins low, and carries very well.

Didn't BrunsNick break a series record with it or something a while back?

Awesome shooting, DSJ! I've been eyeing a Red Zone for awhile. But like fins said, "the user can't completely suck too." Great job!

Congratulations!

Post by: fabes on February 15, 2007, 02:24:25 PM: Great series. That one is definitely worth tooting your horn about. Interested too, how is the ball drilled?

Do not have one, but I am trying to decide if I want that one, or the Total. (Two different balls I know)

Great series. Always nice to see an old fart like me shoot some numbers and that there is a number!

Post by: D Scott Johnson on February 15, 2007, 08:10:18 PM: Thanks guys.

My Red Zone is drilled with the pin above the ring and the mass bias is located about 1" right of the thumb. Not necessarily a very aggressive drilling. The ball just seems to roll all the way through the pin deck.

Post by: Matt Fortney on February 16, 2007, 03:39:10 AM: Great shootin! I've had my red zone about a week and a half, drilled pin above the bridge mb kicked out about 3 inches from my thumb. also very happy with it, great carry, consisiten roll...i did change the surface on it, it was a little touchy with the 400+ polish, changed mine to 600 with black magic. Yours still in OOB condition?

Post by: BT808 on February 17, 2007, 09:15:39 PM: I had the pleasure of having this set shot against me. I shot 739 and it didnt feel like much .

On my behalf, I would like to note that although Scott shot 858, they didnt win a game. We shot 3557 with one guy shooting 600 even. Having that 858 in place of that would have been nice!

Congratualtions Scott.
