What would help you even MORE is getting the Masterpiece and getting a layout that suits for style, your game and your needs; to get the proper layout, the driller really needs to know your game (PAP, ball speed and revs, axis tilt and axis rotation) and then he can recommend a layout that "matches up".
 As I always do, I STRONGLY recommend contacting Galen Gentry at Legends for his input (the aforementioned info will help tremendously) and you can contact him at galen@legendsbowling.com or call 1-888-526-3645 and ask to speak to him directly (leave a voice mail if he's not in ... it's testing season and he's out quite a bit this time of year).
 Good luck !!!

you see i am looking to buy one. but first i would like to see whether it would suit me by seeing it in action. 1 video or 20 videos i dont mind! any video of it will be helpful but if you bowl at about 14 mph on medium oil lanes then that would be perfect. thanks

its not the ball its the bowler
but saying that ive never seen anyone get a 300 with a house ball!!!!

But that's my point. Seeing how one person throws a ball would not help you. The odds that your release is exactly like his/hers, (speed is only one factor; there are many more of significant importance) and that you will bowl on that exact same combination of lane surface plus oil pattern is so remote, as to be of no value whatsoever. In fact, making assumptions about a ball from watching one person use it is likely to, heck, it will create more problems than any it might solve.

When watching videos, the only value besides that of entertainment, is whne the same person throws several different balls on the same lane surface + oil pattern, and when those balls are drilled similarly, then you can see the differences between the ball's reactions. You still cannot tell how that ball will react for you. YOU JUST CANNOT!
