Replacement Ball--Need Help
« on: March 22, 2009, 01:07:40 PM »
I've had a black widow bite for just about a year now and as of late, even though im averaging 215, it just doesnt hook as much as it used to. I've been playing straighter for the last 4 months and even though I'm doing good with it, I want a new ball that will last longer and not die out on me. I'm looking for something about the same hook potential, possibly a bit more. Btw, ive cleaned it well and still barely makes any difference. Any suggestions for a new ball?

buy anoher brand.....

Seriously.

I own 21 Lane #1 balls, and none of them are clean regularly. If they get cleaned 3 times a season thats good for me. I have never ever had one die on me.

I do try to keep the surfaces fresh and the oil out of them at least once a year, via baking them in the oven and and a fresh wetsand with trizact/ alabron in hot water after I have baked them and they have cooled down.

No I have NEVER had one crack either.

If it truly is dead the Cell is pretty close to the same reaction. It also is one of the longest lasting solid balls out there.
