What was the FIRST reactive resin ball you ever bought???
« on: April 30, 2010, 01:10:49 AM »
Not sure if this question was asked before, but I will post anyway.

Thinking about where we have come in such a short time, I was wondering about this today.

For me, (and maybe others), the first one was the X-Calibur...I remember that it was too big for my hand and I rolled it anyway...the raw power was nothing ever seen before on the lanes, during that time.

As others here, the Ebonite Turbo X (deep blue with green logo). Knew this ball or resin was special when I put the ball between the 3-10 split without touching either pin

Got back into bowling circa 2000 after several years out of the sport...was told urethane wouldn't work on the conditions the houses were putting out.  Got roped into an overpriced Riot Zone.

Bought a used Teal Rhino Pro from the bowling center.  It was a Brunswick house, and at the time it was a corporate run pro shop.  Guy bought the ball, used it 2 or 3 games, said it was drilled wrong.

My first new resin ball was a Track NrG.

The first I ever received was a Hammer Blade Reactive. It was a terrible ball because it had been plugged 3-4 times. The core had to look like chopped liver.

nitro/r  (green) My first ball was the blue urethane nitro so I figured this was a obvious choice.
