Must be something new for 09 since Randy did all the balls except for O'Neill's

Yeah, it's a far cry from the days they used to "black out" the names on balls for T.V.

I wonder if either company will place it on their website saying that the last PBA winner was using their equipment.

Yeah, I agree. Bowling really is shooting itself in the foot by not allowing the public to know what balls are being used.

It would be a win-win situation for both the ball comapanies and the sport itself, to let that info out there!

yes p.a. started with razor on cheetah and a t road solid on the shark, then he moved to the blue vibe on the cheetah and and the rapid fire on the shark.  Bill oneil was throwing two different companies sort of too from what i could tell he was throwing the hot sauce on the shark and the from what it looks like the new ebonite magic on the cheetah.  Both of them were throwing two different companies and both free agents.
