I agree, and I dont think thats possible. Though it may be uncontrollable. I threw this ball with the pin under ring, and it still had MASSIVE backend, and that was box condition, let alone polished, my god. That thing will turn around and come back to you!

And why would I "saw" pins in half, THATS A WASTE OF PINS!

It has a solid resin cover, Accu-Tread by name. There should be no problem in polishing it; I have done it many times. The only caution I'd suggest is to polish it lightly in steps until you get to where you like the reaction. This may seem tedious, but it's better not to go past the point where you need it. DOn't forget to test it on a condition VERY similar to one onwhich you will use it. You probably only need slightly more length than it has now. I'd even go so far as to suggest you do it by hand with a Storm polish and a  couple of clean terry cloth towels. (FYI most polishes will wash out in the washing machine. SO they can be used over and over.)

OPPS sorry about the 9-30-01 lol,,,,,   being last nite,,,,

But polishing up the ball did make a world of difference, the ball went several more feet down the lane before making the turn, yet still rips the pocket.  and i am sure i can still use this ball on a heavy oil shot too.  

I order'd a BarbWire and plan on having it drilled the same, as this ball so i can use it when the lanes are really fried.
