Title: Total Bedlam
Post by: cheech on December 17, 2009, 04:16:29 AM
just got the email for the Total Bedlam. looks like another "hook monster" i might pick one up instead of a momentum swing.

AKA, Columbia 300's answer for the VG and Mutant Cell.  I will definitely have to give this one a try.

Anyone notice the 500/4000 surface on this?  Seems to me that the VG created something that everyone is trying to get.  This should be a very good ball IMO.

My ball won't hook- Heck who am I kidding--It never does!!

release date said 1/14. and i was thinking the same thing about the sopying the VG and MC. i also found it interesting that instead of 500/4000 it says 500 500 500 4000. maybe its just a typo. i would like to see this ball ocmpared to the full swing and pure swing

i think the bedlam series is taking the place of the momentum series and adding length and overall strength. bedlam is longer and stronger than momentum and total bedlam is longer and stronger than momentum swing

I assume Chris Barnes in the video was bowling on the same pattern when he compared the Bedlam to the Total Bedlam.  If so he was approx. 12-14 boards left at the arrows with the Total Beldam, that is sick!  My Bedlam is strong and is almost too much for most of the centers in my area.  The ball looks sick, but I cannot justify the $$ to drill one of these to use maybe 3-4 times a year at the most without significant cover modifications.

I am disappointed in the video.  Why no show how the ball hooks in oil?

Show the reaction you get on the Shark/Scorpion/Chameleon, not
a short house pattern.  Everything hooks on a short pattern.

And, I would like to see this ball not only compared
to the full swing but also the jigsaw circle.

This ball is amazing, I can not wait to see people throw this ball because I think this could be our "Home Run Ball" I drilled it today and posted a review with a video to follow, had a group of people before league watching me throw it in amazement of how much it hooked. The thing I notice most is the way it goes through the pins, it splits racks, and I mean you can watch the pins get paralyzed as they slide of the deck! Really cool to watch
