I just picked up a C300 Benchmark and threw it just a couple quick games to see how it rolled. The lanes were all sloppy and was not oiled since the day before, and I had a hard time getting a good read, but when I could find the pocket, the hitting power of the ball was incredible. Very nice rolling and the colors looked good going down the lane. Not flashy, but I could watch the swirling to see how the ball was rolling.

I haven't been able to find too many reviews and videos of the Benchmark, and was curious if bowlers out there had more feedback on this ball. Hopefully I get a chance to throw it on some clean lanes today or tomorrow.



I know it sounds like I'm in denial, but I'm not.

 I got out to a different center today and threw a few more games with the Benchmark. Not fresh oil, actually leftover from the night before, synthetic lanes, but the backend was pretty clean.

All I can say is that this ball is a great ball!  Gets through the heads very clean, reads the dry, and makes a nice arc to the pins. Awesome continuation through the pins and a very consistent roll.

This is actually my very first C300 ball, and I love it so far!
