EPX question
« on: May 02, 2007, 03:50:09 PM »
I have one of these "AMAZING" balls.  HAHAHA.  i have given it 2 hot baths since i have had it. I havent thrown it much and have also gotten it re drilled once because i thought that the way it was drilled was the original problem as to why it wouldnt hook.  I was thinking of putting a polish on it and i was wondering if it was a good idea and if any one has done this to their epx let me know if its worth it. Let me know.  thanks.

the epx only works when there is a TRUE FLOOD...otherwise strap a rocket to it and use it as a spare ball

HAS ANYONE DRILLED THIS BALL 3 3/8 X 1 INSTEAD OF 3 3/8 X 3 3/8.  WHICH ONE HOOKS THE MOST THOUGH.  THE 3 3/8 X 3 3/8 IS THE ONE CONSIDERED AS THE STACK LEVERAGE RIGHT?  SORRY I'M JUST A DUMMY WHEN IT COMES TO WHICH DRILL IS WHICH.

Don't throw the ball on league patterns or light patterns it works when the lane is flooded NOT when  the lane is dry. Use it at Nationals or a Tournement if you can find one with enough oil. Have you ever heard of ''burnout?'' that is why it is not hooking, the balls energy is gone.
