I'll say that I've tried just about every comapny out there with the exception of the new ones like Circle and Visionary,neither of which I'd heard about before joining this website.
I've had balls from the major players and have thrown 300 games with most of them---Brunswick,Faball and Columbia to be exact. I hadn't heard of Lane#1 before coming here. I found one on eBay and decided to try it. To me I have heard a difference in the sound of the ball going into the poacket. And having spent a good majority of my early life in music training I know pitch and tone and can easily tell the difference.
The second thing I noticed is an improvement in 10 pin carry. I'm not well versed enough in the physics of the weight blocks in today's equipment to say why it carries better for me but it does.
Having said all this, I will say unequivocally that there are some very good balls out there from the major companies. Nor will I sit here and down play them. Whatever ball matches up for your game is what you should use.
For me it's Lane#1...............
