Plastic balls, Circle's or otherwise, are generally lousy balls to learn to hook.  They will hook if thrown "right" or on the right lane conditions, but they're not designed to hook like resin or particle balls.

You'd be better off with an entry-level resin ball like the Tropical Storm, Jolt, Roto-grip Planet-line ball, Power Groove, Scout, or Ebonite Element-line ball.

Bad! VERY BAD!

I had one... as long as you don't rev it up like crazy and the lanes are dry... this ball won't do anything

Also I had two that cracked... very lousy quality...

Hands off these please!

While you say they're poorly made, they are one of the HARDEST polyester balls on the market.  Unfortunately hard plastic like that isn't always as durable as the material normally found on your more standard White Dots, Target Zones, and Maxims.
