If so, how did they turn out for you?  I am considering one, but want to hear both pros & cons from people who have bought/received them.  Were you disappointed or happy?  Thanks.

X-Blems are not used on tour.  Pro-pins and Pro cg's are, but I have never seen a X-Blem on tour.

I have drilled many for people and have heard mixed reviews.  Just remeber, there is a reason the ball is a blem.  Could be color which would not effect ball reaction, some are mismarked.  Hope this helps.

Me: "These lanes are tight. I have 2 boards!"
My buddy with front 8: "Me too!"
Me: "Yeah, but yours both have arrows on them, and an arrow in between!"

I have an x-blem overseas ball. The World Domination. Very good ball for when the lanes get toasty or are going through transition. It is a color blem ball. It is exactly the same as first releases except color which makes no difference to me because I am color blind.

I don't mind some of the lower top weights its the higher ones I worry about..

I bought 2 overseas Special Agnt 007's from Allstarbowling a while back.  I still have one undrilled, both balls were marked x-blem.  The blemish was a tiny little nick on the ball from the factory, everything else was the same as a first run ball.  

I'd rather have blems anyways they're cheaper and perfectly fine, as long as you don't get one with a super high top weight. The high top weights make it difficult if you want a certain layout on that ball.

Carry the 5!

Contrary to Stormkid84's belief, they're on tour too, along with the pro-pins/cg's too.

All i use are Xblems or xcomps. Never had a ball i couldnt drill.
