What $288.75 can get you....
« on: July 03, 2006, 11:03:38 AM »
After a little shopping today I'd like to share the awesome bargain I got.  All balls were New In Box and 16lbs(which I throw).

V2 Strong
V2 Sweet
V2 Clean
Primetime


....yummy yummy good stuff!  I may just drill the Primetime and V2 clean for now to combat my thursday night league, but I'll let you guys know how they roll.  

p.s. We just got all 5 new releases.  The Whirlwind is one of the best looking balls ever!

15 & change.  It's you prettyboy 15lb throwers that end up with the heavy side of 14lbs.  I'd rather have $15.80 cent in my pocket than $14.75

You're making me cry .., old balls(last year's) are still so expensive over here.  And with the new preferences of bowlers being 15 lbs.  I'm seriously thinking of redrilling my equipment as I get an additional 2-3mph with the lighter balls.

Nice analogy.

Sometimes $15.80 will still only get you 90% of what want though, same with $14.75, $13.75, etc. It is a matter of knowing how to put it in your pocket and remember any time there is $ in the pocket you can get mugged.
