I just drilled one of these up. 2 inch pin drilled stacked leverage with a weighthole on PAP. I've only thrown the ball once so far after a league had finished. A slightly broken down house shot. The ball gets easy length through the heads and then makes a strong move when it hits the dry. Not really a flip, but a very strong arc. The ball is really sensitive to the dry boards. I only bowled 3 games with it, but I had to keep moving my feet and target left every few frames. It liked firm speed. If I got just a little soft with it, the ball took off high. Carry was very impressive. Flush and light pocket hits ALL carried. Forget high hits. 4 pin city. Too much entry angle to tolerate high pocket.

I think this ball will be good for high rev lane sprayers like myself. As long as I kept my speed up, the Ego was tolerant of release mistakes. It also carried off hits well, which enabled me to string strikes. A nice ball for bowlers who like to stay aggressive.

I see why it didn't sell well. UGLY! My children say it looks like someone vomited on it.

I have used my EGO the last 3 weeks in league. All of the series have been in the 660's, and I have not been throwing the ball particularly well. The reason for the decent scores is the excellent carry % this ball provides. If I release the ball well it caries. I really have to either tug the ball several boards or neglect to rev the ball to not carry. I feel like if I could just put 12 good shots together in a game instead of the 8 or so good shots I usually make, I would have an easy 300. This ball is making me look like I'm throwing the ball well when I'm really rolling it poorly. This is just what I like in a ball. It covers up minor mistakes and carries. I wonder if it is the cover or the core that makes it so good?
