Title: Curious: Ever had a ball you shot big with but didnt like?
Post by: ChrispyBrownies on December 26, 2008, 06:27:22 PM
I was just curious if I was the only one out there...
I shot 300 with my fury pearl, but for some reason, I just didnt take a liking to it. I dunno why.

Anybody else have the same experience?

Black Widow Pearl.  Shot my 1st and 3rd highest series with it, but I didn't like it.  I sold it on here for pretty cheap.

I'm not exactly sure what it was about it, but I just didn't like it and had no problem letting it go.

My Black Widow on the other hand has like 500 games on it, is torn up with chips, dents and cracks, and I can't get rid of it.

Weird.

Storm Hot Rod, 300/760+ with it and won city state doubles..could never get it to do the same thing, it would always be a board or 2 difference in reaction.

Thank god for luck or I'd have shot 620. Don't know how many light hits it carried..mix em up, i guess -_-

Shot a 289 and a 300 with my Big Block Diesel, but was never quite happy with it.  It eventually developed a fatal case of crackitis

The Boss solid has been my least favorite ball that works well for me.....actually I hate it.  I tried to sell it 2 weeks after I bought it, and noone wanted it.  I shot 300 in '97 with it and tossed it in the closet.  Pulled it out in '01 and shot 792, and a few weeks later, shot another 300.  I still carry it, but it don't come out too often.

First 3 games with my ebonite matrix shot 812!  Never shot over 650 again.  Couldn't match up with it after that so I gave it away.

I shot 300 with a black particle power groove that has something messed up inside the ball. It flares the wrong way and tracks like 2" higher then any ball across the finger and thumb holes.

I shot my high series with a Track Rule Delta 1.  For a ball that was supposed to be real strong, I had to square up and slow roll the track area to get that ball to do anything.

I shot my highest game, and my 2nd and 5th highest sets with my Black Widow Bite. I redrilled it twice, constantly tweaked the surface, and just never had any confidence in what it was going to do down lane.

Gave it to my father.

i'd say mine was with the Fire Power,  first nite i had the ball, i shot a low 600, and had the ball drilled to really get down the lane since the house i was bowling at was having a oil embargo lol.   After that, i just couldnt get the same reaction except for one nite during a singles exhibition league when i caught fire...

Ebonite The One.  I had a 786 or so series with it once and a handful of 279s, but I also fought a bad case of over/under with it most of the time and could not carry the corners with it unless the lanes were just right for it.  Very condition-specific ball for me.

I bought a guy's 800 BWP for $30..said he had one good night and that was it..

I shot a 757 first time using a dimension, only time I ever used it, set it down after that then, sold it right after...

Same with the black widow bite, worked good, tried a surface change, still didnt roll right, but carried the strike...walked across the alley and gave it away.

Angular One - Shot 300 on the Cheetah in a practice session with my county's All-Star team in 2007.  That was my first one, but I didn't particularly like this ball otherwise.

Cross Fire - Shot a 290 in practice.  That was about the only good thing that came from that ball.

Counter Strike(in current Arsenal) - Shot 278 with back 11 last month in my PBAX league on the Viper.  This ball has its moments but there's a lot of times I just don't get it.

Storm Shift. I shot my highest game 298 and  highest 4-game series  1001 with that ball but that was it. I could not really score well with that ball after that accomplishment so it is now retired.

Step son at age 15 shot 836 (279, 268, 289) in practice with a white pin blue omega, drilled E Up.  Hated the ball, and immediately turned it back into the pro shop (his dad).  Reasoning, was that he had to throw the all "like a wuss" in order for it to work and he hated doing that.  Therefore wasn't going to use it.

Total NV.
Shot 783(personal best) at State tourney. The ball was only a few weeks old. After that I could not hit the broad side of a barn with it. I cannot bring myself to get rid of it though. It's a sort of trophy to remind me of my best day.

Gold Pearl Quake, shot 300 with it the first night I had it almost 800 series.  After loving the Purple Quake (both of them), I thought this ball was going to be great too.  Don't think I ever got another three bagger with it.

Fear Factor, shot 300/8?? right after drilling it.  I was on staff with Storm, ball was not even out yet.  Nobody else shot 700 in league that night.  We thought this ball was the second coming of the Original Inferno...  I sold a BUNCH of these balls, even drilled myself a second one.  What a hunk of .....  Dull, shiny, label, pin up, pin down, whatever, crap.

Omega LM. Shot a 790 and did well in a couple of competitions with it but it was so condition specific it made my white dot look versatile.

Also my Shock Trauma. Bowled a 300 with it very soon after buying it but it died v.v.quickly and no treatment brought it back to how it was and it is now a door stop and not a very good one at that.

I would have got away with it if it was not for those pesky kids (Behind my lane) and those blasted 10 pins.

I shot 801 the second series with my Storm Domination.

Only used it one time after that. Just never matched up with it any other time.
So I have a ball with 9 games on it that I shot 800 with and I hate it lol.

Back in the day, I had a Columbia Rage.  
Other than a few lower 700's, I couldn't do anything with this ball.
Then one night, I had a 773 while opening the 1st frame of every game!
I even got a plaque for 11 in a row my last game (279).
It never did anything after that and was sold soon after.

Absolute Inferno. Got my first 700 with it (730 I believe) but that ball was so touchy for me at my house that I was more often on the wrong end of 180 than I was threatening 700. Smokin' Inferno was a MUCH better match for me and my house, and consequently I got my first 300 (785), two 279's, and many other great sets with that ball. I know most people feel the opposite, but that's my story

Shot 300 first game out of the box with it. The reaction started to go south seemingly right after that game. Ended up giving the ball away after about 35 games.

Total NV - 786 while winning both handicap and scratch doubles in city tourny and shot 279 in a pbax league within a week of drilling the ball. Then the ball just turned into a marshmallow, it totally turned me off to Ebonite cause that ball was Big Es chance to get back into my bag.

Columbia Icon 300... yeah, the one that should have had a 'rainbow' sticker on the box.  What a huge turd, lol.  Only reason I had it was that it was one of the 'free' balls they have away at the TAC a number of years ago when they were sponsered by columbia.  Usually the 'free' balls giving away at the High rollers, Mini's, TAC's are balls that didn't sell well.  You would think they would want to get people hooked on their equipment by giving away a premium propular ball.. but no.  Managed to shot a 300 with it somehow not long after I had it drilled up but it just rolled so bad.. not even sure how I managed it.  Never threw it much after that.

Same here with my NVS, serious case of love/hate...shot my first 800 with it and haven't had any luck since...

3 weeks ago shot my 2nd 800 and first 300 with an NVD I picked up for cheap off the board and I'm SERIOUSLY hoping the same thing doesn't happen as it did with my NVS...

quote:
Cherry Vibe. Great ball, shot well with it majority of the time but was always reluctant to pull it out of the bag(just plain stupidity).

NVS- Had a 279 and a few in 250-260s range but I mostly shot garbage average saving games with it and still, it was still the the first ball out of bag(serious love/hate)

recently saved some frustation and sold both balls

Brunswick Attitude.  Shot my one and only 800...so far.
Had it for a few weeks, trying to figure it out.  Decided to use it in the state tournament. On pace for a mid 800, split in the 10th frame of last game for 809.  Ball never worked for me after that. Gave it away or traded it a couple weeks after that.

290 with my Visionary Immortal solid. Didn't like it cause I could only play down and in with it on dryer lanes.. 3 board swing max.  Wouldn't do anything on any kind of oil.
Not what I thought it would do and I have other balls to play down and in and for dry.

Not a fan of my Black Widow.  I had 2 and sold 1.  My first 20-30 games I averaged around 230 with several 240 and 250 games.  I just can't rev it up as easy because of its core.  It does hit nice.  I also don't like how it is just black.  I wanted mine with more red in it.

Storm Flash Force. Ball went straight as an arrow. Lanes had dried up for 2 weeks in a row last year and I decided to knock the dust off it and use it. I tossed it straight up the 5 board and it never missed! Now I cant use it, cuz I sold the POS!
