not a fan
« on: April 30, 2009, 11:58:28 PM »
I've never owned one of these things, but I hate how they roll. My team mate that averages 5 pins higher than I do was throwing one of these things last night. It was solid blue. They all roll alike so the model realy doesn't matter. Our right lane was a little tighter as my team mate starts the night with 7-10 split. To move this story along he barely shoots 600, I shoot 735. I could play both lanes the same. Going high flush on the left lane and  throwing messengers all over the place on the right. I can only describe the roll of these Morich balls as mechanical. The ball is just going to do its thing with no regard for the oil pattern.The ball never goes through normal ball roll progression. It never loses the axis tilt and rotation. So if the ball decides to hook it goes dead left. My team mate avgs 212 and he throws the ball very consistantly. It look like his ball would hook anywhere between never and 40ft. If you have very little tilt and rotation these balls may work for you. They will retain whatever rotation you put on it until the ball is in the pit. I like assymetrical balls but these weight blocks seem to over power the coverstocks.

I would have to agree with Mainzer on this one!  Ebonite has some great covers for about 50 games, maybe 75.  I was thinking it was just me, but the more I see of them--they lose a lot of kick after 50 or so IMO.

Uncle Remus, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this thread is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Remus your problem is with your team mate not the equipment. You can put a turkey leg inside todays bowling balls and still come out with the same specs as most of whats on the market.

The core doesn't matter. Look at the core specs. The Rg and dif and see how it compares to everything out there. All balls have to stay within USBC regulations.

In some cases with a lot of balls we have seen over the years you can have a core too strong for the coverstock which usually doesn't end well. That happens with every company out.

Your an old school way of mind that doesn't believe in someone needing a lot of equipment to score on most shots. Most people have gone away from that with the power style of bowlers. They think there is a magic ball or drill pattern for every lane condition.

If you team mate wants to keep throwing new equipment and struggle thats between you and him and has nothing to do with the equipment. He will probably do it with anything he throws if he doesn't practice more with said ball, and learn when is best to use it and how to adjust.

That applies to any bowling ball, bowler, and sport out their.

BOWLING THIS MONTH                   2008 Readers' Choice Awards               *High Performance Reactive Pearls*                                                    1. Roto Grip Cell Pearl                         2. Storm Gravity Shift                       3. Ebonite Complete NV                      * High Performance Reactive Solids-Particles-Hybrids*                1. Roto Grip Cell                                     2.

Roto Grip Cell Pearl                          3. Storm Hy-Road                                There are 3 more categories but believe me, there are no MoTrick balls that made the top three. Tricks are for kids. I've got an arsenal called my right hand. MoTrick robot balls are great if you need "hook in a box".  You don't even have to roll'em. You can just set it down at the foul line and kick it down the lane.

specific layout                            specific condition                            specific bowlers                                     Luckily for me people don't buy these balls anymore in my area. The one I had to witness the other night should be on the roof of the bowling alley by now. Tricks are for kids, silly balls.

Very true.....almost but not really.

What is your ball of choice Remus?
 
No matter what it is, like the Morich stuff and everything else on the market it had a specific drilling sheet with suggestions for the ball and style bowler using the ball. Along with best suited lane conditions.

They are all the same. If you believe other wise you are the one who is being fooled.

+100 for Buddy Christ for the wonderful Billy Madison quote.  

But hey give Uncle Remus a break, it is his opinion of Morich whether his statements about his opinion are completely ignorant or not.

I've always wanted to post that quote somewhere, and this thread was a golden oppurtunity.

Nothing against you, Uncle Remus, but MoRich is one helluva company, and put out pretty choice equipment. I hear they're very sensitive to drilling, so that may have been a problem. The EZ Rev core wasn't too well rated as well. But your statement about the bowling company is, like posted above, ignorant upon ignorance.

Actually Remus don't post what you throw. It may jinx the company and all who use it.

                                     You are a classic stroker. For you I would recommend "Playboy" and switching to a fingertip grip.  ........For those looking to be ignorant upon ignorance, I would suggest Aprils edition of "BTM". That is where you will find the 2008  Readers Choice Awards for the best bowling balls.

Remus I guess I hurt your feelings.

You have far exceeded us in your years of bowling and drilling experience to know when a bowling ball is in no way possible a good ball just by seeing the manufactures name.

I'm guessing in BTM they give all kinds of great info on said bowling balls. Or more then likely just the manufactures specs and promotional material that is copied and pasted from their websites. I'm sure they went real in depth with the survey as well. (probably picked each companies biggest hyped ball and called it a day)

None the less I'm sure it is the end all be all of cheap advertising that people with so little understanding as yourself flock to.

I enjoy the variety that is available by so many manufactures. So many great companies and equipment it's hard to miss. Kind of like looking at Playboy, you can find something for everyone.

It's ok if you get out of the ball early and watch it roll out and go limp at the pins. I guess viagra won't fix all your problems.

Mr. Kidsfondled2000 you may need the viagra. I see you need your balls enhanced in order to create revs. MoRich is viagra for bowlers. Maybe your equipment is just tired of your hand. Try scoring.

only a child molester would come up with something like that from a screen name. time to grow up a little.

Answer me this in your original post you said the guy using MoRich on your team averages more than you right? Why does he average more than you if MoRich sucks so much? You must really suck if you can't average more than someone throwing Mo.

Go dream of your boyfriend.
