I'm mildly disgruntled with Lane 1 . .
« on: February 13, 2004, 11:46:53 PM »
Lane 1 balls I've had:

Carbide LRG
Emerald
Blueberry
Cranberry
Pearl Viper
Cherry Bomb

While the Carbide LRG was the best ball I've ever thrown, the Cherry Bomb was marginal, the Blueberry was alright, but the other three flat out suck.  They all want to roll at your feet, roll out, and believe me, I've had half a dozen different layouts on them.  I drilled the Carbide twice, drilled the Emerald twice, drilled the Viper twice, and drilled the Cherry Bomb twice.  The only two 5-7-10's I've ever left in my life came in the same week with the Emerald.  Until today.  Back to back shots on the same lane, TWO MORE 5-7-10's with that stupid Viper.  I've barely left 5-7's with anything else.  You can't say I haven't given them a shot.  Just fed up with them.

Hahaha, it's funny, because I actually don't like Lane 1, if you saw some of my posts, you'd know that.  

And my point is, is that you posted, someone responded, it was settled, then out of the blue you come back with more.  And what I said, is great you don't like them, that's nice, but stop bringing up arguments that only you want to have.

Almost missed this, e-mail me for the address to send the check too.  Be glad to come down and bowl, especially on your dime.

I believe alot deals with the way you drill it,pin placement and mph/revs.I had a blueberry w/3-4 pin that didn't work for me with my high revs.Sold it to a friend of mine with lower speed and revs and his avg has gone up 11 pins this year since he has bought it.So I don't think it matters if you have high revs or low.The best thing to do is call up Ritchie or anyone else at Lane #1 and ask them what would work for you.I have the advantage of living 15 min from the office and gets to talk face to face with the staff to figure out what will work for me.So try giving them a call.
