I have had this Lane 1# big curve bowling ball for about a month now. This ball is awesome to say the least, by far the best ball I have ever had. I'm 65 years old and do not throw with a lot of speed. Once I learned to play deep and trust the break on this ball there was no turning back to the old ball. I average 184 to 186 and have for years. I now have an average of 195 and it is still going up. I shot two 700 series in two weeks and since I have only had one 700 series in my life time that speaks volumes as what this ball can do. I had the driller give it a nice snap at the end and it just rips the rack. Heavy or very little oil it is still a monster ball for me. The guys in my leagues are taking notice of this ball and asking where I purchased it etc. I'm sure one or two may be giving it a shot.
Do yourself a favor and try this ball out, I don't think you can go wrong.
