Black widow venom coverstock cracking
« on: March 22, 2009, 01:10:58 PM »
Any body out there experiance the same-
black window venom cracking
our shop has drilled 2 venoms, superbowl weekend, so the balls are not soo old, for once to two time a week bowlers, we have noticed as they bring the balls in for cleaning, cracking in the same spots , about 1/2 from the thumb hole about a 1" long, both balls have slugs and were glued with turbo 2 in 1 zip plus-45 glue,
the crazy thing is another guy on my team, has the same issues with his venom, purchased jan 26th, but drilled by a completely different pro shop using the same thumb insert glue,

so is this a typical issue with that coverstock formula?

Do you know if all 3 track very close to the thumbhole?

I have seen this problem with balltracks that are very near the thumbhole with a thumbslug.  I don't have a cure, but I have seen it and they were not hammer balls.

the cracking is the opposite side to the track, they are all right handed, so it is the right side
