I'm not sure if PA's third ball was the Big Deal or a Vicious as it seemed to have some green in it.  It may have just been The Deal.

Last Ball: Sling Blade
Current Ball: The Deal

Barnes was using the professional and the big or backyard bully.  Remember the columbia site says what he won with, today we only saw him qualify for the finals.
Jones was using the killer instince pearl.

PA lost his match using a Big Block Diesel on the left lane and Big Blue Pearl on the Right.  Wiseman was throwing a Pioneer in the challenge round

Pioneer , then Shock and Awe.....the first view I saw of his ball in the challenge round did not look like an s &a ...but the second time around it was very clear.

Yes....Barnes WAS using the Professional!

Didn't watch Saturday and only watched a litte today first 4 shots or so.  Jones had a Big time like always and Barnes looked to be throwing a big bully on one lane and if it was the professional on the other lane then I don't throw Lane#1 and will give all my balls away.

On a different note....anyone know where you can get the shirts they were wearing. Seemed to be all wearing same style for this event. Any info would be appreciated.

If you blame the lane conditions for your bad scores, then you had better thank them for your good ones!!

JPR, want me to give you my address so you can send me your stuff? I watched today, and like I said in my post, Barnes himself said he used a big bully and professional.

Damn that may be a costly typo on my part I was trying to say if is wasn't a professional I will give my stuff away.  Meaning I am 100% sure it was the professional and on edit I thing it was a backyard bully on the other lane.  I relly need to watch those typos.

Sorry to hear that, I could have made a fortune selling your stuff.  I'm also pretty sure it was just a big bully, since A)  It just had the red/black of the Big Bully, and B)  Barnes said that one too.

I think that was the first time a pro actually named their specific bowlin balls this year.

3rd time this year, Angelo did it earlier in the year with his Classic Zone and Inferno comment. PB3 also said it when he won in El Paso quoting "my inferno is on fire".

Hmm, I could have swore I heard him say "big".  Oh well, it was still a bully and the professional, like I heard him say.

I thught it was the Big Time. Like when he OWNED the tour last month. Could be mistaken though, and he might have thrown two or more balls.

Columbia made a typo.  It was a Big Bully(Black/Red, WHITE PIN) on the left lane.  How you could confuse it with the Red/Gold, GOLD PIN of a Backyard Bully is unimaginable to me.
