NVD
« on: October 07, 2008, 10:56:31 AM »
This ball is a pure beast.. I got it drilled Fri and put the #1 drilling on it with the MB about a inch right of my thumb and CG about 2 inches from the centerline but im not sure..  I used it at a house which had a decent amount of oil on the lanes and it did a decent job but because of the 4000 finish, it didnt pick up like it should.  I changed the surface to a 1000 and bowled my sunday league where we usually get alot of carrydown from open play.  It made a huge difference as it went threw the carrydown like it wasnt nothing.  First game I went the front 10 and tugged the 11th shot and shot 288, second game started with the front 4 and then operator error and lack of concentration set in and only shot 196, third game started with front four and tap the 5th, 8th, and second ball in 10th frame and shot 247 for a nice 731.. Then next night i started with the Dimension for the first game and it was having a problem carrying. So I decided to switch to my NVD and shot 266, which should have been a 290 if i didnt slow the ball down, and 258 for the third game. This ball is actually strong as far as overall movement than my Dimension. Gives me good length and a strong backend reaction. I actually want to see what this baby will do polish..  This is my first purchase from Ebonite and it wont be my last!!!!!


Anyone else having success with NVD

So far in the minimal games i have on my NVD i am liking it.  My NVD that i bought at Buddies Proshop Demo day is driled as follows:

The MB was drilled out and is where the thumb is.  

I wanted this ball to be a little earlier and have a strong, continous backend and this is what this ball does.  While it not as early as i would have thought its still earlier than most of my other stuff.
