heck, with that much of an allowance, you can have an entire lane #1 arsenal...since they hit the hardest of course.

for that kind of money, you can buy 6 balls.  take any 6 storm balls, except from their master line because the mid range stuff is just as good, and you will still have money left over.

To heck with limiting myself to just 4 balls... I'd get a new start.  If I had $1000 to blow on bowling equipement this might be my invoice from Buddies.

Granite Gargoyle              85.50
Classic Zone                 102.50
Element AU79                 127.50
Slate Blue Gargoyle           87.50
Shifting color Target Zone    40.00
KR 4 ball Roller             125.00
Ebonite add a bag             13.50
Dexter SST5 LX                92.50

S&H brings the total to $732.68

And at $50 a ball for drilling I'd still be under budget.

It's kinda hard to read the lane if you don't know the language...

Yes, I urinate on my ball...it doesn't give me better reaction or make my hands tougher.  It just makes me feel better.
