Scored a Comet Pro!
« on: January 12, 2008, 10:29:09 AM »
Hey gang,
I finally scored a Comet Pro (thanks Ryan if you are reading!). As if that wasn't good enough, the span is perfect. I slugged it, changed the grips, and went to town on the spinner (hey, she's old and needs a little freshening up, you know?!).

 I watched Mike's video on the Lane #1 site, and my ball is drilled the same. I will not be able to throw it for a couple days, but I am anxious to see how it will roll. Anyone else still have one? Are there any recent Lane #1 balls that are similar?

The collection is growing, but I am still in search of the following (new or used):

Black Raspberry
Silver Diamond
Pearl Carbide
Pearl Carbide Bomb
Viper
Pearl Viper

Actually use it quite a bit for drier shots.  Haven't used it much this year but shot two 279's with it in 2007..

Hey, your Comet Pro is pretty dark, too.
I was thinking mine was soaked because it is a very dark blue.
I have never seen one before, so I was not sure on the color. The pic on Lane #1's site (under retired balls) looks more like a medium blue.

When I drilled it was new, and it's always been dark...  lol
