I would like to leave some feed back for the lm widowmaker but there isn't a choice yet because its not an option of choice...So i will just write that this ball is another great ball for lm.....It keeps the pins very low and pins fly side to side...If anyone has any opinions on the widowmaker,would love to here them....

I have one.  Yes, it's a great ball.  But, I have trouble on some lane conditions.  On a flat pattern, it gets too much length, and the back end is iffy.  I have adjusted the surface, unsuccessfully.  So, I took it back to factory finish, and use it selectively.  I bowl on a 44', heavy viscosity shot, called a House Tournament Shot.  So, heavy oil balls are on the menu.  But, it is just too strong after 5-6 frames, where my Terminator takes its place.

 

It's strange, but I usually start with this ball, but generally come back to it later in the match as the Terminator will start to roll out.  It handles the spent lanes better then other balls I have.  I can generally salvage a 250-260 game when I struggled to hit average for the first 2 games.  Once, I find a line, it stays there.

 

Don't really understand the Hybrid cover and how to adjust it.  I"d like to use it more on a THS, but I rev too much for it on that condition.
