Title: B/Widow Reaction.
Post by: phoenixheat on March 07, 2007, 08:51:49 AM

Hey guys,  Just wanted some input about my ball reaction on my Black Widow. I throw the ball with Average revs and average speed.  I usually swing the ball out around 5-6 and typically in some oil the ball gets back to the pocket ok.  well the other week I did an oil extraction and finally threw the ball the other night, reaction was very strange, the ball seemed as if it was starting to read a little early, then looked like it was going to stop hooking and miss pocket but on the back end it picked up the hook again and cruised in for a decent hit.  it was doing this all night long... it was rather strange b/c the ball would slide, hook, slide again and then catch hook again on the back end.  anyone seen this out of there ball?

After 3 months of use, cleaning after each set, oil extraction and sanding, now I'm getting Slide-Small hook - Slide - no grab, no hook - it looks dead.  Either burns up too fast or won't finish.....Looks like this Black Widow stung itself.

I have my BW at 2000grit with a slight shine. I bowled well over 50 games with her the ball hits as hard as the first day I bowled with her. I clean the ball from day one with Lane Masters ball cleaner this cleaner goes deep into the pores and gets out all the oil and grime in the BW coverstock.
