Code Black video - Del Ballard
« on: November 26, 2016, 12:28:28 AM »
Just watched the Code Black video, but that's not the good part. The few side-bar comments from Del Ballard were worth more than the ball. Great stuff that to most of us are things we never get to hear...

Examples: (not verbatim yet, but they'll be in my notes within 24 hours)

"You know how asyms have this particular issue with high rev bowlers"
"Just put the MB a little past the axis and...."

There were 2-3 others, casual comments to him that to normal humans (such as myself) are priceless knowledge...

Loved it...

Mainzer is either sarcastic or blunt, but not stupid.
The guy swears by Ebonite, so I wasn't sure how serious he was.  ;D

Where did I lose control of this thread.... :)

Back to the original point... Del Ballard's commentary was filled with what I am sure is great insight into bowling ball mechanics. This makes sense as befits his position of course, but what a treat it would be to sit down and chat with him for just an hour....... Did anyone else think so?

Sarcastic and blunt... which from time to time makes me sound like a ass:(

I have thrown Ebonite for about a year, had some success made some money, but would rather be throwing Seismic tbh.
