300-Blue Thunder 2/5/98 Still have my original and my replacement for it. Wont ever sell either (even though I never shot an honor score with the 2nd one).

800-Regal Quantum 1/12/00 Shot 805. The ball is still in my bag and gets regular use to this day. I have used it the last 3 nights at my most bowled at house and 4 out of the last 6 sets---754, 705, 684, 657. While the last 2 arent out of this world, the first 2 were high in the league that night and 3rd high in the league that night. It allows me to play the proper line and score.

My highest set ball---Fire Power which I shot 832 with. That ball is collecting dust in my closet as it grew more and more allergic to oil as time went on.

Track Nuke in 1996.  It's either still at the bottom of the Columbia River, stuck in a dam, or washed out to sea by now.  If it hasn't been completely destroyed by the river.

300 with an AMF Ninja Master 10 years ago. Sold it last year
No 800 yet, but I think it's coming soon. Almost had one with a Pure Hammer.
