What does the OP hope to accomplish besides some kudos from a few dozen strangers on a very obscure bowling site that probably 90% of bowlers in the U.S. have never even visited?
You've already bought the domains, you apparently "know the secret sauce" to the cleaners and hook juice. Why not go all the way and open a store, bottle your own version, sell it for less and start making money? Why not, you have all the answers right OP? What are you waiting for?
Is marketing a brand on your own money and promoting it nationwide too time consuming for you?
Do you not like money?
Do you not have time for a side business venture?
Do you not see the value in the bowling ball cleaner market?
Are you afraid of failing?
Are you afraid that you have all keys to success based off of the CtD brand, but due to your own procrastination and fear of competition that you would take on the side project and fail?
Are you afraid of the backlash from the people who actually support Ronald Hickland Jr. and his products?
I'm a Team CtD member and support Ron Hickland Jr. because I like him as a person and he's given me countless hours of training, coaching, and help to my physical game and arsenal out of the kindness of his heart and wanting to see bowlers grow along with the sport. He's done all of this without asking for any payment from me, and for that I will continue to support his brand and pay it forward by giving to others in the game what people have given me.
He's building a brand and a loyal community of people who love the sport and want to see it grow. Your troll job is only that. A troll job. People will forget in a few weeks and you'll have nothing to show for it, while Team CtD is out loving the sport and loving the community that it's fostered.
Those who can, do.
Those who can't troll.

Get a grip there Mr. “Team CtD National Stafferâ€.
Ronald Hickland, OUT OF HIS OWN MOUTH, said that hook juice alters the chemical structure of the balls coverstock.
That, INHERENTLY, makes it “illegal†per U.S.B.C. standards.
So you, donning you armor of loyalty, jump to defend him by belittling someone who has EVERY RIGHT to say and do what he has?
RONALD HICKLAND, MR. “LOVES BOWLING AND BOWLERS AND WANTS TO SEE THE SPORT GROW†is the one who dropped the ball here. All he had to EVER do was provide the proof that his product was approved for use.
He didn’t because either it isn’t approved, or he just doesn’t care enough to do so.
Is it your opinion that people should just be able to flaunt the rules and sell anything they want to to the public, all because they are “nice people who care and have helped people out of the kindness of their hearts� BULLSHIT!
Now, we have, most likely, ALL used something “illegal†to clean our equipment at one point or another. The difference is, I ain’t trying to sell it to anyone else under the auspices of it being fine to use it, thus perpetrating fraud on the consumer.
Yes, FRAUD!
He was in the industry long enough, and involved deeply enough, to know what it takes to get product approval. He also knows that without that approval, his product is ILLEGAL TO USE, AND CAUSES ANY EQUIPMENT IT IS USED ON TO ALSO BECOME ILLEGAL, VOIDING THE MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY ON IT AND MAKING IT USELESS!
His knowledge and experience in the field, open him up to lawsuits from people that use his product, then sue him for screwing up all their equipment knowingly, by frauding them into using an illegal substance that, in turn, made their $1000’s of dollars worth of equipment illegal also.
You, my friend, need to get some new glasses, because the rose colored ones your wearing now ain’t working for you.
