I bought this ball two months ago.I had it drilled 3 3/8 x3 3/8 no x hole.I was having problems on a medium condition shot ,tried polishing but that made the backends to strong,scuffed lightly with burgandy pad not much help.Then i gave it a harder scuff with the burgandy pad.This ball has turned into the best medium shot ball i have ever had.Evindently the conditions  needed the ball to burn up more in the front to be effective.

I now can use the BRB on a sport shot as long as i maintain good speed.When this ball hits the pocket or gets close it destroys the pins.I have used a lot of bowling balls in past years but nothing hits like the BRB.

L/LM makes quality balls,if they had not sent the pads and cleaner i probably would have sold the BRB,a tweaking of the cover made this ball great.

I would suggest to get a tamer drill on L/LM equipment if you throw with a lot of revs.these balls fool you with there hooking ability.
