Throwback of a ball. Back to the days when Urethane set the standards for years to come. Black and Grey with a sheen finish this ball is truly a throwback to the Early/Mid 80's. For that consistent confident feel when nothing else works especially in the transitions, OLD SCHOOL is the ball to have in your hand.

This ball is amazing and a blessing for me.  I have needed a spare ball for years and this gives me many options.
Little about me:
I am a current Lane Master/Lord Field Area Staffer
Left Handed (220+ avg)
Drilled in Adrian, MI at Lenawee Recreation Bowling Alley by Ryan Downard in Centerline Proshop

Old School Layout: 55x4.5x30
3-4 inch pin above my fingers to give me the length I need for spares and short oil patterns.

Hook Potential: 3/10
Reading Mid-lane: 8/10
Pin Carry:8/10
Factory Surface: 500 Abralon Sanded (URATHANE)

I use this ball for my single pin spares on any pattern   
This ball is pretty controllable as the hook potential is not very high being a Urathane ball.  This ball has a very specific purpose for me and it does very well on my spares and super short patterns.

Overall I have to give this a grade of: B+
