Talked to a buddy of mine in the Midewest Region who is on staff with them and he is absolutely in love with the ball. We will be stocking them in the shop more than ever this upcoming season looks like. Dynothane sales are picking up in our area slowly but surely.

lefty left a 10 pin, more than likely too much ball for the pattern, Phil you gotta quit turning it so much, give the pins a break.

you guys have fun with Phil? I've tried to go down to see them twice, everytime I make plans they leave town. You'd think I had B.O.,I bathe twice a month in my own sweat, I don't understand it

Well I got the throw this little pill last night and DHAMN!  We had our lane guy put out a special longer pattern for us (5ft longer) for our practice session last night.  John and I both drilled our Thresholds fairly similar though I went with a high pin as compared to his low pin just because of our styles.  Since I have most of my agressive equipment at the house for the summer (short sport shot) I only had my Agent to compare against.  Well the Agent at full speed needed to be squared off or I had to slow way down if I wanted to move in a bit.  If I got fast or tugged the Agent it would litterly back up.  Well I had messed with the surface of my Threshold and took it to 4000 prior to bowling.  With this surface the ball didn't want to read correctly and it was a bit lazy around the corner.  Trip to the spinner to take the surface down to 2000 and the beast came alive on this shot.  Ball picked up nicely and really made a hard charge through the oil.  Both John and I were really impressed on the balls abilities on the fresh oil compared to our other equipment.  Ball hits incredibly hard and was very forgiving on the tweeked shot we were bowling on.  I really want to compare this ball against my Sniper and Pure Energy...but that will have to wait till next week.

So far a winner and I can see why everyone was excited about its release.

Me personally...yes, it would be way to much ball for me at 800!!!

However, John utilized his in box finish and was able to play the lanes very similar to my line.
