Pretty good series with the Saga
« on: December 13, 2006, 03:57:40 AM »
Been really liking the saga recently, and, and my last 2 sets have been pretty good... in our most recent ranking tournament I struggled most of the day, and with 3 games to go changed to the saga finishing off with 246 223 269 (738), so the following day, this past Monday, I went in with the intention of playing a similar line to see if it would work on the fresh.. and it did 265 first game, then in the second I started with a strike, followed by pocket 7-10, then 8 strikes, and a 9-pin tap on the 11th ball - 255.  Final game left the 2-4 first shot, followed it with 8 strikes, then a 10pin in the 10th, subsequently missed! - 245 - for a 765 series.... with 3 opens! lol

Still, Well impressed with the Saga

I think we've flip/flopped Ryan...you've gone to the Saga and I'm liking the Venus a lot right now.  Saga is still in box finish for me which is a little too squirty for the house pattern here as the synthetics we are on are really slick.  I could put a touch of surface on mine, but I like it for when I go to wood houses like I was in over the summer.

Anyway, a couple nice sets there Ryan. Especially the last one as a couple spares would have put you in the 800 series range.  Great bowling!

I'm surprised by a review by Powerhouse that hates this ball so much.

I don't see his drilling though?  I wonder as I have not heard any bad things about this ball.

REgards,

I just read Powerhouse's review and I could not disagree more with his assesment.  I think the Saga is one of the most predictable balls on the market.  Since I drilled it up a few weeks ago its the only ball that has come out of my bag.
