Bill Hoffman still on LM/L staff or a free agent?  Looks like he used a MoRich LevRg at the Worlds.  What does he use now?

i'm almost 100% sure he's still on lane masters.. i think the ball he was using was a masterpiece... he was using it all week i believe. if you go to bowlingdigital.com and look at the pictures theres a  picture of him holding the ball and it says "traction reactive" above the pin.

Thanks Phlapper.  I wondered couldn't really tell with color of ball.  Gotta figure symmetrical LM/L stuff works well on the tough lane patterns that he bowls on.

I see Bill Hoffman has just beaten Jason Belmonte to win the Qubica world Cup in St  Petersburg in Russia. Story in UKtenpin.com

Yep, he was definitely using a MP.

In the video, I thought it might actually be an AP -- I had forgotten that the MP has silver in it, as all the ones I've seen in person were just red/gold. The pic is definitely an MP, though.

Congrats to Hoffman!

On edit: he's still on staff according to the L/L website, and Weber Cup photos confirm it (Legends/Lanemasters patch on chest).

It looked like a heavily sanded Masterpiece thats probably why it was confusing.

when it was rolling down the lane it looked like a absolute power as well, but when he was holding it it looked like there was some red in there.

Spoke to Galen on Thursday ... that MP was the first MP that Billy got from Legends; apparently the ball has 500+ games on it too !!! No surprise since "we" always speak of the durability and longevity of "our" line of equipment.

Bill used this ball last year at Owensboro, KY and he and Rhino Page shot really good! Rhino won by the way and Bill H. finished in the top 4 I believe! Thanks, Bruce
