I am a righty that has speed between 15 and 17mph with better than average revs.  I have had this ball for a couple of months now.  The ball is drilled 3 3/8 stacked with a 9 inch weight hole and the pin to the right of my ring finger and the cg kicked out a tad.  I bowl in all synthetic houses ranging from 10 to 10 block to the christmas tree pattern.  This ball is your proto-typical skid/snap reaction.  The ball does indeed go long and does snap hard off the dry.  I stand on 20 and lay the ball on the 12 out to 7 and it hit very hard.  When the lanes break down i can move in deeper and continue to strike.

I'm what you would call a power stroker. This Ball clears the heads so well that when others have move in deep, I can usually stay just outside of everybody. The ball skids/recovers better than alot of your so called big name balls. I didn't even mention that it may be the hardest hitting ball I've ever thrown.

This is only the best ball I've ever thrown!  That's saying something too.  This ball absolutely does anything I want it to do, and I don't even have to change the way I throw it too much.  I had it drilled with the cg about 3 inches away from my palm, and pin at a 45 degree angle toward the fingers.  It's about a 1 1/2" to 2" pin.  The ball recovers when none of my other bowling balls will, and goes straight when everything is overreacting for me.  This ball is magical!!!  I will buy another one of these for the upcoming season.  A great sport shot and tournament ball!!  An A+ 100%

This is a rereview of my Silver Diamond....gave it another shot since I am learning how to throw a bowling ball like a bowler...(timing and relase has improved after a Dartfish lesson) Took it down to my league lanes which are a Med condition with more oil outside of the 10 boards then the past. This condition has givin me fits and for the most part many others as averages are down about 10 pins. I gave the ball I nice hand hit of Balck Magic as it never has had much a shine on it. It seemed to me that this ball like to move really hard late and I had some luck playing it about 3 boards deeper than normal starting point. I also had some tuff times with the old ten pin with it before.
Well, today it was a monster that I did not know I had. I could throw down the 10 board and watch it search for the dry and make a powerfull move to the pocket. Many buried hits, plus many light and high hits with plenty of pin action...very few ten pins. It did get a bit strong on me late, but it was on fire.....4 games over 230 with it....For me....that was awesome. It was a pleasure to watch this ball rev up and turn hard and sread the pins today. Glad I got home and took it off EBAY before someone bought it! Excellent ball!

Based on research and recommendations I got one of these Silver Diamonds drilled up for medium oil conditions.

I had an old purple buzzsaw from about 5 years ago and liked the way the ball rolled and hit. Plus I was looking for a ball that would give me what the old Gold Rhino Brunswick gave me (the ball I had the most success with).

This ball is a monster. I am still working on some mechanical issues with my delivery but when I pulled this out I found I could play down and in (straight up 10) or from a wide angle (outside 5) and could also open the lanes up with this ball. While I can usually get most of my equipment to the pocket when I make drastic line adjustments, the carry usually goes down.

After moving over to our towns toughest house this summer I had shot 2 low 500s and 1 high 400 set...needless to say I was struggling.

Last night I shot 100 pins better than my previous high in the first 3 weeks (my previous high was 519, I shot a 629). This house is demanding and with 16 teams no one shot anything over a 670 (I believe one guy hit a 663). Thing is, I had a shot at league high last night, but I simply lost it for about 4 frames in the 3rd game on one lane (had opens in all 4 frames by being stupid).

What I learned is this is one amazing ball. When I hit the pocket I carried and there was none of this over/under reaction where you leave a solid 9 on one hit and the next time barely knock out the 5 pin. The roll, arc and consistency was uncanny. When I hit the pocket I had complete and total confidence I would strike. The only reason I didn't shoot a 700 is I missed 2 single pin spares and had several splits that cost me, completely my fault.

I don't remember a single ball I threw that I felt like I got tapped. When I left something it was clearly obvious why I left it and when I executed my shot it was a strike.

This ball is so damn good I have been having the itch today to go back out and practice, but held true to taking the day off.

This ball is amazing...Depending on your drilling it is a ball that I believe could work on dry or in oil and still deliver consistent results. Depending on how the rest of the league season goes, I will possible be drilling up another one of these balls for a more aggresive reacton.

I love this ball...It reminds me of the incredible Gold Rhino by Brunswick, but is BETTER.

Update on the Silver Diamond

Started year with 572 and 500 w/ Icon 2.

Didn't think the Diamond would play well at this oilier house. After the 500 I went for change. First night out...609, then 575, 562, 675, 661 and 640
(right at 200). Averaging 206 w/ the Buzzsaw. This is terrain I have never been in before.

It would be higher but my spare game let me down in the 500 sets and even the 640 set (chopped two mini buckets and missed two single pins).

I plan on staying w this liine

Ya ball looks real good (CHOKE)  lAMEONE has another looser here!

But hell were used to that aren't we Lameone freaks!!!

Buy a scout or a gyro pro it hooks just as much.

Oh yes we have lots of junk balls on the market so why buy this one?

Target Zone are nice they don't hook and hit flat like this one.
