Is there anyone out there who feels like they really missed out on a great ball?

I missed the boat on:

Total NV
Action
Virtual Gravity
The whole 505 series (A, C, T)

Black Widow

Virtual Gravity (I bought Hammer's The Sauce instead. Good ball, regardless.)
Pure Physics
Power Machine (That ball looks awesome)

I missed a bunch because I'm too damn picky when it comes to investing in a bowling ball.

Let's see, there's the One series, the Gamebreaker (every re-release as well), the Cell series (although I did throw a friend's and didn't care too much for it at the time), Dimension, 920T, Rising, Uprising, 505 series, 715C. Those are just a few.

However, I got a barely used Power Machine and Mean Machine from a friend that's a ball whore. He didn't like the fact that the thumb was drilled a little too big and never used the balls. All I had to do was open the thumb a little bit with sandpaper and I got two of my 3 favorite balls of all time. The other being my Brunswick Punisher that I really learned to bowl with.

Omega LM
El Ninos
Quakes (Gold Quake, anyone?)
Original Nighthawks
Shifts

I've drilled a lot of the balls people consider the "best" and honestly most of those were my least favorite balls....the black widow and every ball I've thrown with that core has been terrible for me. The gamebreaker was ok nothing special. I did live the nv series and the cell. The cell pearl was terrible for me. The VG same thing....granted a lot of these might have been awesome with different layouts and my game has changed but i no longer get caught up in the hype of balls. Some of the best balls for me have been ones that barely got recognized.....

Lanemasters, The Buzz

I had a Total NV. Drilled it up a year after being discontinued. I wish I had sold it instead.

There are several to list, but they are worth more undrilled then drilled. Sometimes it is best just to let them go.
