I thought the time zone was solid black?  Brad was using something red/blue...

Unless i'm crazy.

I would swear that Duke is throwing the original Triumph. I thought I saw the "Arms Raised" logo and the colors look identical to the original Triumph (check out the picture on this site).

Looks like a Detour for Wolfe and the Xception for WRW.

I hate this weekly post.  It really isn't that hard to figure it out if you look at the manufacturers web sites, online proshop sites, or something like bowlingballreviews.com.  There are so many errors each week it's pathetic.  Hell, even a Brunswick rep mixed up a Time Zone and an Ultimate Inferno.

Nails,

Thank you so much for your positive contribution to this thread.

Well, they eventually got it right.  Does that count as positive?  

Sorry, but every week it's the same thing.  A bunch of people start guessing, others chime in, some right, some wrong, and after 20-50 posts, they eventually figure it out.  I probably should have held my tougue, but somethimes you just have to let it out.

Nothing wrong with talking about what was used, the reactions they got, and the drillings.  But guessing the balls isn't rocket science.  It was a very good show.  Angelo losing the left lane, but making some excellent splits, WRW not able to keep up with the adjustments, Duke moving way in for the title match, and Wolf keeping his nerves under control and throwing a lot of quality shots for his first title.

BTW, your post complaining about my post didn't add anything positive either.    J/K, I'll try to lighten up.

I did read your explanation Ric.  Thanks for your continued contribution to these forums.  Not to continue the negativeness, but your posting without really watching is mostly what I was complaining about.  Not just your post, but that kind of input from many people.
