Hey guys & gals,

I am starting to see Ebonite's The One pop up everywhere.
Last night, I saw a local regional pro in our league who is a Brunswick
Loyalist throwing one! I ribbed him and he chuckled saying, "eh, just experimenting hehe."

Depending on what part of the country you are from, I am curious to know
how many of these balls are popping up in your league, center, and/or
tournaments. This ball is creating quite a buzz in our area.

Any input would be great!
Thanks,
Ramtart

I haven't seen one live yet... but that's for Germany. But, in fcat, I am surprised that this ball does not show up more often? Most new stuff is Brunswick around here, followed by Storm with a big distance. Ebonite is quite rare (or has become a not-so-frequent sight).

There's one that I know of.  There's another Ebonite guy, he might have one but I haven't seen him this year because we don't bowl in the same leagues anymore.  They're the only two Ebonite people at this house.

Like 4 or 5 between the 2 leagues I bowl in.  That is actually pretty unusual for my area too, it is only a 10 lane house.

I bowled a tournament in Toledo, Ohio this weekend, and there was at least one on every pair. In my friday mens league I have noticed 6. Tuesday in a 16 team league that I bowl in there are 3 that I've noticed. The number are growing everyday. There are also a lot Raw Dooms. I have one myself. Those two seem to be the most popular two along with the TSA in Northeast Ohio.

Two weeks ago, our pair alone had SIX Ones's and one BIG ONE.  Seven out of ten guys were throwing one or the other.  We have a 23 team league, and its hard to find a pair when there isn't at least one of them on the ball return.  It doesn;t hurt that its a very good ball, and the Pro Shop ran a special on both of them the past few weeks.

There's probably 3 in my league.  In the PJBT's I bowl, you'll likely see one or more on each ball rack.
