Help picking out ball.
« on: January 24, 2007, 01:39:21 PM »
I'm trying to help my sister pick out a new ball. She will not throw a particle ball. Her average is 170, but I think she should be around 180-185. She throws down and in. She throws about 12-14mph. The shot we have is wet in the middle and minium oil on the outside. She currently throws a Ebonite Stinger. Her stinger goes down the lane and just dies (Have had it resurfaced, it is an old ball) . It is time for her to get a  new ball.

So I looked at the site.

Looks like my choices are
WC Reactive
Masterpiece
Big R Bang

I listened to what the guy said about the balls.
Big R Bang - I don't think this would be a good choice cause she doesnt want the ball to go really long and snap, I don't think she should handle that.

I think the Masterpiece would be a good ball for her?

Particle balls eat the lanes up. Particle balls do damage to the lanes.

She runs a bowling alley, so no particle ball.

What more info are u looking for? I thought I posted enough? Not sure what else you need.

Thanks for the help

Based upon the limited info on her that you have provided, I'd say the BUZZ or the World Class reactive (although the Masterpiece COULD work if layed out properly for her and that layout "matches up" well to her style and stats); this is just my humble opinion.
 You could also place a call or send an email to Galen Gentry at Legends to get his recommendations:

Good luck !!!
