Who started the bad reviews?
« on: March 21, 2004, 01:42:45 AM »


I was just looking at some of the recent reviews, including the new one for the blue hammer, and jesus, what ever happened to English?

I mean wtf are some of these people talking about. The reviews nowadays on this forum are useless...

I got ball, drilled by pro. It go long, like hella long den bomb, lots of hand. Ball flare little to lot, look cool when color swirl like pink but blue.

Ball hit hard, but not two hard in right direction to knock pin down sometimes. Put orange finger tips in ball, see which way i rotate now, big help with this ball that go boom.

Overall 3/8/10

Lane 1 is priced over, har...

AMEN TO A MODERATOR/EDITOR!!!!!!

reviewers should be required to have a profile with relevant personal information concerning their bowling:  style, PAP position, averages . . .

reviews should be required to indicate the ball drilling pattern, where the ball was played on the lane, and the general lane conditions

other useful information might include where on the lane the ball begins its hook, type of reaction (skid/flip, strong arc, smooth arc, etc.), some indication of entry angle, carry on light, solid or high hits . . .

i think using the forums for fun and games is great, but let's get serious with the reviews, folks!!!!!!!!!!!  some good information is needed when tossing out $120 - $250 for a bowling ball!!!!!!  THANKS!!!!!

I like this idea, but the for the "where on the lane the ball begins its hook", this is difficult to do because they would also have to specify the type of shot they throw, what the lane conditions are, the speed... etc...

But if they did include that, and if the moderator system is accepted then ballreview.com will be a better place.
