Could we please get a remake of The Thing Returns?
« on: September 18, 2006, 09:01:34 AM »
I loved that ball so much and hate myself for ever letting it go. That ball was the best skid/flip ball i've ever thrown. It gave me 40ft of skid and a ridiculous left turn every time. Hit and carry was unreal and I even loved the color combo! So how bout it boyz?!?

You might want to give a 357 Magnum a try...or just hunt down a NIB Thing Returens, they are still out there if you look hard enough.

Crank, it was a great ball I shot many big series with it, it made me $ in brackets as well, if you liked it give the 357 Mag a try, almost as much length and a vicious left turn, stop and go on a dime.

The 357 may be good, but it's not a Soaker ...

maybe not, but from what I personally have seen the 357 as a good a ball as the TR was, and at a more affordable price. Then all one has to do is take the Threshold add 2000 abralon and another very quick turning ball. Choose your weapon.

The 357 may be a great ball and may compare, but thats not what I'm asking for. I would like a remake of the TR. Same core and cover and numbers. Change the color if you want, but keep everything else the same.
