The first guy that lost his match was NOT throwing a big bully. It looked like a throttle up to me.. But it was for sure not a big bully..

If they only made a ball that would carry that da_n 7 pin (and I am right handed!!)

I thought the same thing. Scott bowled against Danny in the first round of match play and he said if he made the show he would use Morich. He was using it for regionals this summer and Mo has been there all week. Hopefully he sticks with it, would be great to see Morich on TV.

How would a ball that is blue/gold (epp) look black?  I don't think it's a EPP........likely fear factor.

HB, i've seen a fear factor and an EPP, and they do not look the same at ALL.  Lay off the pipe, HB.

oh my goodness, and i thought people here on ballreviews had a little more time on their hands then to sit around and figure out which ball each of the pros is throwing "i think it looks like a rule, no a big bully, no an eraser pearl particle, no..." Who cares what ball their throwing??? They could throw urethane and kick most of our asses (although not the way i bowled on pattern b today at a tournament ).

Really.  Sounds like they were spending more time online than watching the show.  Not only that, they bought a ball used on the show and are trying to hand out player of the year after one week.  Nothing wrong with talking about what's used on the show, but 50+ posts during the show?

Um, I guess I'm really a genius since I can *gasp*  know what I blade reactive looks like!  I just have too much time on my hands that I could tell what a ball is that i've seen 50 of.

i'm with andy on this one. its not that i have too much time on my hands, its that i can identify EVERY Hammer with one look because i'm a hammer nut, and i can identify most other balls because, quite frankly, i spend too much time in the pro shop

its also halloween, and if i wasnt sitting in my room watching the tour and posting on here about what balls are being thrown, i'd have to be answering the door and handing out candy to little brats, so i chose to sit here and watch the tour and NOT be bothered with little kids....

I can also identify most balls at a glimpse (just saw a small portion of pa's ball on the telecast and  knew it was a big blue pearl) but it seems like you guys were arguing over what balls they were throwing. maybe its just me, but arguing over what balls a pro is throwing is a little bit strange.
