Let me say this, I love this ball! Guess I'll drop a name while I'm here, too. My brother, PlaneFacts, who suggested and drilled my ball, was right on the mark, as I've never posted a review before and have only been bowling for a couple years now, I'm not well versed in the, official lingo but, I know a strike! when I see one! and this ball gives it to me. I play deep left, with left foot lined up with the gutter and play a swingline out to about the 5 board and this ball revs! grabs! and goes! like nothing I've ever seen. On a fresh shot it rules! and even with some breakdown, and carrydown, it still holds the line with just a little work. I've gone from a 160 avg. to a comfortable 180+ with this ball and am looking forward to my first 700 rolling this fine Morich ball. For what it's worth, from a novice bowler? I recommend this ball, highly

Alright, I broke down and picked up this hook in a box recently and it has been very good to me so far.

Specs:
14 1/2 lbs (I know lighter but its all good)
Pin: 2"
Top: Unknown

Drilled: Pin above ring finger, cg just inside the palm (under and inbetween ring and pinky finger).

Ball gets down the lane revving hard and once it hits the dry it turns hard and carry is fairly good considering it is a sub 15lb ball. Home house modified the shot this year, 36 feet still but a little less inside and a about the same outside, which was fairly light. With less weight in hand, I have to really watch my speed or else it is bucket city. When I control speed, throw about 10-5 and stand back and watch it hit. Pins stay very low, so less messengers but when the ball is hitting flush in the pocket, corners get kicked out well. Swish hits carry well, but for me once the speed amps up, I tend to ring a 5 pin
Ball works great for the shot/line for me, doesnt burn up the oil like my WOW or Hercules. Need to open the thumb up more, for the end of the 2nd game I am hanging on to it too long and getting errant on shotmaking, which means put it away. Other than that, want to get another in 15lbs and drill it slightly different for another look with this beast. First game with this ball shot 258 (bragging rights), but other than that no real super high scores, due to lanes breaking down, poor shots, missing easy spares. Great ball from Mo, get one (or another) before it goes away. Overall a 9 out of 10!

Got the Supreme about a week ago from a guy that said he bowled 12 games with it and was not happy with it. Said he could not get the ball to hook. The ball was in great shape so I bought it and had it resurfaced, plugged and drilled for me. I don't know how the guy couldn't get it to hook. The first night I used it it hooked like a dream with a little help from the alcohol wipe and the scotch brite. The next night I hit it with some 400 grit paper in the pro shop ball spinner then proceeded to bowl in my scratch league. Eventhough the lanes were extremely oily, I had to move 14 boards to the left and increase the ball speed to keep it on the right side of the head pin. I did leave several splits that night but it was not the balls fault it was mine. The ball would crush the pins anytime it was close to the pocket. The splits that I left were due to slowing down the speed and causing the ball to hook past the head pin, and even then it should have left more pins than it did, but the ball definitely has hitting power to take out a few extra pins. Overall with the few games that I have bowled with the Supreme, I am very pleased with the ball.(especially since I only payed $75 for a like new ball) I guess if you can't get this ball to hook, then you have a problem with your bowling, definitely not with the ball.

(purple]I purchased my Colossus Supreme the first weekend of 2004. This ball was recommended by a pro shop dealer.  With my older ball as the lanes dry up and I moved into the middle the ball would leave the five pin more times then not. With the Colossus I was able to move into the middle even on oily lanes and carry the five pin. This ball was drilled to finish hard at the back end and that is what it does.  I have bowled in two tournaments and regular league for just one month have payed for this ball 10 times over.  I have not had a 700 series in four years and with this ball hit my fifth 700 with two of them in tournaments. This is the most impressive ball I have ever owned.

Bought this ball 2 weeks ago, was looking for a ball that would turn and burn.
The ball doesn't hook as much as I would like, I had it drill for the maximum reaction, however it's more of a smooth arc, but hits like a truck. Burns up the head oil fast, by the third game you really have to pickup speed. I have a 195 average, I've shot four series with this ball and have averaged 212. Still getting used to it. Love the ball so far.....

bought this ball as a blem and had it drilled with the pin above ring finger and cg 1/4" right of my thumb with no weight hole. this ball out of the box i shot 238,209,267. i am a average speed bowler with average revs. ball rolled great and had a nice arc to the pocket which i was looking for. i played a few different lines for a few weeks to find out which works for me. i put a light scuff on this ball to help with the heavy oil i bowl on. shot 245,179,267 last night. excellent ball and seems to keep rolling every week. another great product from morich.
