Whats your old reliable???
« on: August 21, 2004, 01:44:27 PM »
I know everyone has one. Something they pullout when everything else goes wrong.

For myself though I am currently slowly favoring track balls, my old reliable is my columbia beast. Its smoothness and predictability just keeps me going back to it when it gets tough.

Lets hear it........

I'd like to add my Track EMB to my Storm Tour Power.

These balls "live" in the pocket.

Right now it's my Uranium Buzzsaw but in the past I have had several "go to" balls:

Storm Eraser, Faball Black Hammer, El Nino Gold were the best however.

If theres carrydown: Trauma Recovery with hand
If its spotty/burnt heads: Blue Hammer with speed
If none of those work: grab a house ball

Swallowing a quarter is nothing to worry about.....if she craps out two dimes and a nickel.....then I'd worry.

I would have to add my track money for anything except dry. Since these 2 balls

ANOTHER FOR THE TEAL RHINO!

I'm telling you people, this is the one ball every bowler should throw at one time or another.  It is still a powerhouse on todays conditions.
