Ball of the Year so far???
« on: January 21, 2006, 08:56:08 AM »
I wondered what everyone's vote would be in various categories for ball of the year (so far)?

I am hearing a lot about Ebonite's The One...At my shop the Vertigo and Absolute continue to be at or near the top in the high preformance.  

We have sold a ton of Black Ice balls as well as Track Solutions (both the pearl and solid)

The Classic Zone is also still selling well for us and the Paradigm is getting hot too...anyway there are some thoughts, what are your votes???

From the TV show, I'd say The One seems to be very successful.  There's one guy here with one, he does alright with it.  The ball business in this area is pretty slow, so there's nothing like a big seller.

For many of us "year" means "season", which runs from August or so through May.  We're a little more than halfway through the year, in that case.

wtf it's January?  okay Brian let's go through this nice and slow for ya okay?  Let me know if you can follow this:

The bowling season starts in September right?  right.  Okay now this is mid to late January right? right.  The bowling season ends around what late April or early to mid May?

Okay keep up Brian...I know this is tough for ya...

So we are now into the 5th month of a season that ends in the 8th or 9th month.  So, I asked for opinions on ball of the year SO FAR right?  right.  

It's losers like you who have driven people away from this site and bring down bowling as a whole.  Do everyone a favor and stick to stock car racing or whatever it is that you do as a good ol red neck boy okay?

I vote for the Tsunami lane1 this is by far the best ball I have purchased and its the first lane1 product that I have purchased its quite a bit higher than other balls but to me its worth it

Toss up in my area. Tsunami H2O, Vapor Zone, The One, Rampage, Punisher, Paradigm, and Treak Heat are all big sellers in my area. Starting to see some Track Rule Delta 1's emerge.

My vote, Vapor Zone.

original poster seems to be looking for the most popular ball we see at the lanes, that pro shops have sold; yet people keep chiming in with balls they personally like the most.

Which is it, folks?

most popular balls by me are Absolute Inferno and The One.

So I guess according to Brian, the first half of the PBA season is completely irrelevant for the Player of the Year race, since the award will be for 2006 only since that is the year in which the award will be given next, obviously.

Ebonite Big One. I'm about to retire it though cause I have over a 1000 games on it. It was a good ball when it came out but now it's obsolete and inconsistant for today's condition.
