I just like new balls so alot.  But, I think you can get away with 1 or 2.

I'll probably buy 3 this upcoming year. A particle to see if I like the reaction, a weak pearl, and I'll probably get another Anger when the one I have goes down/I get tired of having it resurfaced every month.

I need four. I have eight. Of the eight, it turns out only two are balls I need. So, still looking for 2 more that actually work.

I'm set (bought one in July) through the end of the season.  I'm thinking about getting a Sauce for PBAex next summer.

So maybe 2...

Well, looking at my needs... none. But actually I found myself rejuvenating my arsenal and trying to fill gaps (mostly with older stuff), so I end up with about 4 balls a year. Addicted... need therapy

Well, I got a Gravity (part of last season) & Dimension for this year.  I wound up using my Attitude Shift mostly & my regular Shift when the shot breaks down some. I might get the Virtual Gravity or Break S75 for next season, but I'll wait to see how the economy will shake out first.

I carry 12 to most tournaments and I am looking at replacing 4-6 this season because they are all more than 4 years old and just completely dead and ripped up. So it is going to be an expensive season for me... O.o
