I played the lottery and ordered 3 of them for my shop.  Received 2 black and 1 red.  I know a C300 staffer that's killing it with that ball and it looks really good.

Waiting for mine to get in. and to be honest, I'm hoping for Black. From what I've heard from my PSO, Black is supposed to be the better of the three balls, albeit slightly, due to the pigmentation in Red and Gold.

That being said, if I did get gold, I would definitely punch up Black. And IMHO, I think the big loser in this is Red; If you get the other two colours, you're guaranteed Black. Red leaves you one out.

So on the unknown you order a ball and they send out random colors. If you get the gold ball do you get anything extra? I am asking simply because I do not know and I am a new bowler.

I would have better luck winning the Mega Million with those odds LMAO. By my calculations its 80 gold balls out there. Subtract the ones that people already has open. Subtract the ones that are on ebay that has not been opened and selling for 200.00+. I have to give it to Ebonite. That is one hell of an idea. I wonder if every other company is going to do this.

Retail purchases that's close to the number (without drilling), but Ebonite isn't making nearly that much on them.
