First 300- C300 Rock Star shot on 9/8/01.  Still has a place in the bag and I don't see myself getting rid of it.  That 800 is still a work in progress.

Yes I have it. It is a "Rage". Shot my 300 in August of 1999.
No 800's for me yet. It is a big number that I can't seem to crack. Last year I shot 783, but that is the closest I have come!

First 300- Sledge Hammer...I think my dad gave it away.
First 800- 807 Night Hawk Revenge experienced ball damage the very next day, never reacted the same...so upset I threw it away.

AMF 3-Dot Classic - Still have mine - I got it when I was 14, I think...


Any way - back on topic - 300 - Nighthawk Torque Pearl - yep, still got it.
800 -811 X-Factor Deuce - yep, still got it too.

Just about every other old ball is gone, but I refuse to part with those two.

my ebonite wildcat is cracked in 3 spots, and the coverstock has separated by at least 1/4 inch in a few areas.  the ball cracked not even 2 weeks after i shot 300 with it(november of '02), and it was at a house that only had about 30-something 300's all time.
