If you could only throw one ball campany…
« on: November 04, 2014, 02:57:56 PM »
Here it is guys… In terms of hook potential, versitlity, and a more complete line-up,  top to bottom, if you could only throw one company for the rest of life, which one would it be, and why? 

For me, I can't say  ;D, because I love storm, but as of late, Motiv/Dv8 have really impressed me, amd im torn  :o

Oh, I'm right there with you in that regard, sir. I'm your typical 215-230 on house, 185-195 on anything difficult type of guy. The only difference between me and many "house hacks" is that I know that's what I am. I don't let the big average and big scores from league trick me into believing that I'm actually good! In any case, just do you, man!  8)

Gene,  you couldn't have said it any BETTER ;  that was my whole point of posting this post,  +1000!!!

Again as stated, ALL COMPANIES make great products, and with me throwing Storm, Roto Grip, DV8, and Motiv,  I have NO REASON TO wreck my brain.   ;D

Exactly.

The thread was an "If you...." game thread.  If you want to play along, great... If not, don't kick the game board over, just don't play it & move along...  ;)  ::)

None of 'em.  They all have a good piece or two.  Live in reality.  You aren't getting paid what's the point?  For those that getting paid more power to you for the rest of us....idiots.   :) 

Scotts, if we are talking about heavier weight balls, I totally agree with you but in my case and 12# balls, I will have to disagree because of the core thing I mentioned in my earlier post. For example, a 12# Brunswick Mastermind with a generic light bulb shape core isn't going to have the same shape, movements, and etc on the lanes as a 15# one will, whereas a 12# Motiv  Primal Rage will have as close as possible, the same shape, movements, and etc as a 15# one will.

Visionary...period.  Have thrown many balls over 15 years of bowling and have been throwing VBP for the last 7-8 years, and have thrown many of what they've made.  Always a consistent roll for me no what ball I throw.  Have had all but one honor score with them and as far as service and the people you deal with, you can't ask for better.

Got my kiddo throwing them as well and he's doing just fine too.

It would be Radical. I have several other brands, but the Radical gear is seeing the lion's share of use this season.

Right now, the easiest to cover a range of conditions without confusion and the least overlap seems to be MOTIV.  I really like what they are doing and where they are headed.
