How many balls have you bought this year?
« on: October 30, 2009, 07:36:40 AM »
Me?  Eight.  The reasons were that I didn't want to throw just one brand anymore, allowing me to pick up some that I've always wanted to try.  I also wanted to get rid of anything that's been plugged/redrilled.

Also, there was an extreme change in PAP after my wrist injury, making most of my equipment much weaker.

I have a guy that I bowl with who seems to have a new one every month.  He bought alot of my old stuff too.

I do have yet another on its way.  Though it is way too soon to say this, but this should be my last one for quite a while since I'm choosing much better layouts, and continue to take great care of them.

Only 1 this year surprisingly, I have received 3 all together but only one that I bought.

I have no intentions on that changing though after Christmas I will reevaluate my equipment situation and add a want possibly.

this year as in 2009?  1.. picked it up at Nationals last year in Reno...  Total games bowled this year?  9 (all at nationals).  

Quite an embarassing report.  Have been working 60+ hrs per week and travelling about 50%.  With a new family, it doesn't leave much time for the lanes.  I will be back though..

Have not bought myself anything this season although I did get a NIB Red Death from Lane 1 and a NIB Raw Hammer Burn from Hammer pro bono.

I amseriously considering either a urethane Ogre, Liberator or Natural if the lanes do not calm down. My Black Phantom is getting a little tired.

Four, but I''m not even bowling in a league this year due to a job change. Three of those remain undrilled.

 Pretty sad when you''re not even bowling and STILL buying balls.

O.K., make it five, I''m going to buy me a urethane ball, either a Natural or a HYPE.

At least you have your priorities in correct order.
