I have finally used this ball in a tournament situation. Bowling in local association tournament this past weekend. Get to the final 3 game set. Condition is toast. Pulled out my highly polished Urethane Ball (Columbia300 Scout High-Flare) and it went left as soon as it hit the lane. So I went to my last option, the Lane#1 XXXL.
Took a while to line up, but once I did, this ball was the right choice for me. I was able to play my A game. I had one bowler on my pair commenting that it looked like I was throwing a reactive ball.
Usually when the lanes are toast, I am trying to throw faster which causes many problems. Bad timing, poor release, and most of all a sore left leg after I am done.
Well with this ball I was able to play at my comfortable pace. Make quality shots, focus and adjust. Best thing of all, my left leg felt great the rest of day.
Thank you Lane#1 for making this rare gem of a ball.
