Has anyone ever bowled well with a blue dot? Im thinking of getting one, heard they go pretty straight.

It still depends on how you throw it, but all in all it's a straighter rolling ball because of the ultra-low friction polyester cover.

When I used one, on very dry lanes, it had surprising hitting power, but then dry lanes tend to do that. I've never compared them to other polyester balls.

I can turn my white dot more so it is different; same harness, just a different cover formula.

Blue Dots generally are harder than most any other poly ball out there especially the older ones.  I have a 2003 that is 85 hardness.  Lots of poly balls are softer than that.

They do have good hitting power on a dry-dry condition.

u should get a blue dot. in my oppinion they r the best spare balls. ya i know there r people who say plastic is plastic, but i like the blue dot. also like scotts33 said the have good hitting power on super dry conditions. on time my lanes were so dry i played the 3rd arrow to the 5 board with a blue dot and i hit just like my strike balls do.
