Taking a quick look at Ebonite's middle priced balls just now, I am reminded that they have produced some great and highly ignored balls. People seem so focused, even here at Ballreviews where we expect people to know better, on the latest mutha-hooking balls for the revless!

From the:
Vortex II Sanded
Nitro/R
Big Time (solid)
Big Time Pearl
Show Time Pearl
Puma
Black Ice
Ice

You have a PROVEN bunch of price leader balls that can handle almost any condition for any type of bowler, very well.
 
Why Ebonite and its reps do not push these ball more, why the EBonite aficionados (fans) do not discuss these GREAT balls more here, just amazes, confuses and disappoints me.

These balls are the bread and butter of the Ebonite family. When these don't sell, Ebonite does not make money.

I haven't used many Ebonite balls since the Apex and the Cougar badly disappointed me; loved the Tornado Sea Foam Blue (the solid; still have it; may dig it out again; I can trust it.).

Life: Deal with what is.

I picked up the Ebonite Game Time at the TAT megabuck event this past February and that ball was awesome. It is a light load particle and served as my benchmark ball for awhile. Read my review on it in the Reviews section for more info.

Charlest, I agree, those balls below could be had for as little as $80 on some internet sites.
