First 3 pics are a NIB Synergy, which ball was plugged?

I personally liked the Track 10 over the enforcers.

Stroke,

It was extremely hard to find the Enforcer. I have been looking and asking for ANY Track urethanes for a while now and have only found 1 so far. I wasn't going to be too picky. And I got myself a steal from pro shop guy!

oh I completely understand, i was just saying i loved my track 10 over the enforcers i had.  It's a shame you didn't need a urethane a couple of years ago when my parents moved I still think they had my track 10 laying around.  Good luck with it.

I only have one track gem laying around.  T-Shark.

The Synergy is never getting drilled.  That's going to the Smithsonian.

What's so special about it?  I drilled one up a couple of years ago and it would only wrinkle on very dry lanes.  Sold it not long thereafter.
