A little rumor.
« on: September 21, 2005, 06:36:25 PM »
Talking with the distibutors today, I heard Morich has  the Third biggest share of the high end market behind Storm and Brunswick. I heard Mo sells more high performance balls than Ebonite and Hammer combine. I guess that smoke and mirror show is working.

in the midwest, Mo products do not sell well at all.. I wouldnt be surprised to see Legends/Lane Master making their way up to that list soon.  Again, they only make high end, but still....


Agreed, i'm her in Michigan and at all the places i've been to bowl including a few pro ams with more than 100 bowlers, i have seen 1 mo ball! A lone WMB...

Don't feel bad..I'm in North Dakota---Fargo-- and my brother has told me that Mo does the clinic/ball sale/drill day three times a year in Northern Ky/Greater Cincinnati.
 I'd like to see a poster put up with that info just to see what reaction he'd get.The pro shop I use is a Storm shop,but will order and drill any ball you want.
 P.S.---I live in Hillsboro,40 miles north of Fargo,but work and bowl in Fargo.

since I open the new shop, I only get to the distributors once every two weeks and both say that Mo stuff is selling like hot cakes. TSA and SA are still top sellers in the shop. Well if you have the hot areas like Western NY, Long Island, Michgan, Chicago, parts of Ohio, Las vegas and Texas you will have some serious sales for example Lane master are making a buzz in the are while lane# is losing it.

In my league, I have a TA and am getting a Ravage.  My teammate has a Ravage.  There's a spinner using a Ravage and at least another TA.  I think 1 guy is still using a WMB and another guy who was using a WMB left town.  I think one of the women is using a polished TA.  What's that make -- 7??  Noone's using the most recent stuff as far as I know at this center.  The proshop wan't big on Mo until the TA came out, but most I talk to haven't had much success with the balls....Usually one big game then a huge drop for the rest of the night....

He has made quite a splash in Cent Tx, sold 15-20 here. Went to Austin Sunday for the YABA All Stars saw several being thrown in All Stars, walked into the pro shop and found them drilling a Weapon. Seem to be doing well here.

Don't know of ANY in IL.  

All Storm, Ebonite, Hammer, Brunswick, and some Roto-Grip.  

But I bet that is due to the fact that we have players from all of those companies on some sort of staff, wether it be Am staff, Regional staff, or ball programs.

On the East Coast, I would say that is posible. However, get away from the East Coast to the Midwest and Western part of the US and you will find that not to be true.

What I see are left handers throwing WMB and TA, no SA, right handers throwing TA a few SA. Have not seen a TSA in the length of time that they have been out.

Two Morich S&A's here in NC. I read about them, and bought one online. I was bowling good with it so a teammate of mine bought another S&A. Our proshop has had a S&A sitting in the display case all summer. That's OK it is my best kept secret.

Mo seems to have a strong hold where I bowl.  One teammate has a TA and Ravage.  Another has a TA.  And another has a S&A.  It's not uncommon to see them on each team.

Mo comes by every six months and works with those that want to have a ball layed out by him.  He'll be in the area on Oct 17-18, which is why we see so many.

I've never seen a Mo ball way out here in Washington.

Come anywhere on the east coast from VA to NE, you'll see a TON of mo everywhere.  Especially in the DC, Southern PA, Northern VA, all parts of Jersey and Lower NY areas.
