Title: Perfect, Perfect, Almost Perfect League Ball
Post by: J_L_B on August 11, 2005, 06:40:56 PM
300-300-267  (867)

Thanks to Columbia and my new U-Turn Pearl

This was my first time using this ball in league. It's amazing how much energy this ball saves for the backend. I seemed to carry all night from 5th arrow out to around 10 board. Ball turns the corner with some serious pop.

Thanks again Columbia, bring on the EPX T1........

Awesome, I just traded for a hardly used U Turn Pearl, and it's in the shop right now getting plugged and drilled.  Love to see stuff like this about a ball I'm about to start throwing!

Oh, and great bowling.  I'm still at the point where a 267 would be thrilling by itself for me!

Thanks for all your support. I left a ringing 10 pin the 9th frame of the 3rd game. I was truly in awe of my carry that night. Felt like a once in a lifetime opportunity to obtain perfection, but I'm happy just hitting the pocket that many frames in a row I'll have a picture of the ball up soon.

Everybody knows that Sport Bowling nationwide high average awards and Team USA mean nothing
