What is goin in the bag this year??
« on: August 16, 2003, 10:21:30 PM »
I am going to 4 balls.



Heavy oil (for around here)
either a sanded Blueberry or a Pearl Carbide Bomb.

all mediums.
Blueberry polished
or Assault pearl.

lights Pearl Viper

spare
XXXL
I suspect that most of the year I will be throwing only 3 of these
BB polished
Viper
XXXL.

and after doing a sport league I will not be using a brace this year.
I think I got my accuracy troubles figgered out.
also learned a few things about oil......

sawzalls cut ANYTHING including 10 pins
FAILURE IS FEEDBACK. AND FEEDBACK IS THE BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS THAT GOT DIGESTED!

Ten pin?????? Where?? I throw a BUZZSAW there is NUTTIN left on the deck...

Proud MEMBER of the FOS!!
Member of the FOS, if there happens to be a 9 pin standing just toss a saw and cut it down~~!

You say that like it is necessarily a bad thing..

Lots of my older stuff has moved to the top of the list unless the house changes what they tend to put out...Gold Grenade, Roto RH and possibly the Pearl Assault and Sonic X will be the ones spending the most time between the house and the bowling center.

Not necessarily a bad thing, but I think everyone wants a new toy once in a while.

Only 5 balls in the bag this year.  College Bowling put a 5 nugget limit on us this year for big tournaments, so whats the point of taking 6 to small ones?  I'm just going to set it this way and learn my reaction(s) to the T.  If I can't hit it with one of these 5 (well, 4 actually), I won't hit it period.  Heres what its gonna be:

Eliminator
Combat Zone (ah, ol' faithful)
Bruiser
Monster Black/Red Pearl
Target Zone

The Eliminator should be strong enough for my release, but if its not I will punch a Contact Zone 2.0.  Also have a Riot Zone that I might try if anything goes too long.

i use 1 ball for any condition. the ebonite gyro sanded. i avg 205 and always am able to use in any condition. for me its not a ball change that is needed but rather a speed change or direction change or a surface alteration. move left 5 boards move right 3 take some off put some on polish it up or dull it more. some of the best bowlers i know have 1-2 balls and use them for years. others bring in what looks like vacation luggage and shoot 520 and switch balls 3 times. in the past 5 years i have spent 200 bucks on bowling balls but this is just my way and thats all.
lets face it... this isnt deadlifting or picking up women.. its BOWLING!!!! Stop acting tough when you roll 4 strikes in a row!!!

 Black Cherry Bomb.
 Vicious (Attack or pearl particle)
 Blade Particle
 V2 strong
 Predator Pursuit
 TPC Player.

i'd stay away from the ebonites, that includes hammers.


Why?

Dose that mean the 240 plus game I have been shooting each week in league with my Sling Blade is not good enough? or is it just the Hammers I mentioned adding to my bag.

Please share you insight on this obviously ignorant statement. because if you know what magical ball I could buy to give me a 300 every time would be greatly appreciated!

300Shooter,

 Well that is some important news. You should make a new topic for it in the ebonite forum. How would Know if I had Bad balls. could you post the serial batch numbers that are bad?

How about the contact name, so all of us could call ebonite and complain? I would want my money back!
