a worthless review of vertigo
« on: February 09, 2005, 06:00:31 AM »
This is a link to the post:

Once again, we have another worthless review. Tell something about how the ball rolls on the lane, what patterns you throw it on, etc. I will do a review as soon as I punch mine. Sorry to ramble but I just don't care for this review.

Actually, he stated that:

1) The ball requires medium to heavy oil (in the heads and mids).
2) The ball needs dry backends.
3) The ball was drilled stacked leverage.

Not a perfect review, but actually more useable most. Many just drone on endlessly about how the ball just "hits like a truck".

Very true, but not all balls require dry backends to be effective. I have enough of those already.

My only point is that if you dig a little bit, there was some useful information (assuming it's accurate, which is a whole different issue).

Not totally true i have staffers and pro shops sell me balls all the time that i will sometimes have a month ahead of everyone else. I am mid 190s bowler with ok knowledge of drillings and lane conditions i never write full reviews if you search for my name and i have owned 350 balls in the 4 and 1/2 years. I am just a ball whore so they know to ask me first if i would like to buy there extra/seed balls first and for the right deals i do. I am working on absolute infernos for a couple of people on here right now i should come through with a couple of them because my staffer friends cannot throw brunswick and some of them will be getting the the ball from the eliminator.
