A few friends said my Rival was ugly until they saw it make effortless moves to the pocket and strike.

I can honestly say I've gotten no derogatory comments on mine. Mostly just comments about what a good ball it is. After how some on this site have said it's ugly, I would have expected some of the same but actually mine looks pretty sharp.

Key thing is it is your wifes. I can imagine a woman would like how it looks. Me personally, I want to drill it so bad just can't bring myself to do it cause it is fugly.

Had someone tell me that it was extremely ugly, so I went in and shined the crap out of it, now they are like WOW that ball is good looking. And it looks like you are putting no effort in it at all and that thing hooks

So I told him he could borrow it, and see how it works for him.

Sure need to get that ball back

Good luck dale you can forget about seeing that ball again.  I love the look it has going downlane sanded or polished.

Yea i have to agree really that the color of this ball hurts its shelf appeal hughly. It really is one of the most colorwise unappealing balls in a long time.

Since so many think this ball is ugly. How does the Hammer Toxic or Visionary New Breed solid compare?

Maybe it's just me because I love the look on the Toxic, and Psycho.  The New Breed I'm still iffy on though.

Just saw one yesterday.  Actually, not that ugly.  There are numerous bowling balls uglier than it.
