Is Track truly back?
« on: July 10, 2008, 04:04:20 AM »
The subject says it all right here. What i've been noticing is that more and more people are coming back to Track again. Ever since the Ebonite buyout, we've lost a lot of Track exclusive bowlers, but after all the new, great releases Track has come out with, the Legion is definitely back. I for one, am one of the people who thought Track would be junk with Ebonite pouring their equipment from now on. As everyone knows, I purchased a Rising recently. It is such a great ball (if I can actually control it lol), and the ball showed me that Track is just as good as ever. If Track made some more weaker, pearl pieces, for much lighter oil conditions, i'd be all Track right now. In the mean time, i'll be sticking with my Rising, purchasing a Tantrum soon, and buying an Emerald Vibe for lighter conditions. In the long run, i'll be purchasing a Kinetic Pearl to have as a stronger pearl piece.

What do you guys think? Is Track really "BACK"? Is there others that are seeing what I see on the Track forums lately?

Thanks for reading!

John, you need to look at the bright side and feel blessed as that is much better than being in the Hurricane territory.

I don't think cores are an issue with any ball co.as a matter of fact I loved most of the Hammer cores and the one's Track has look very good!but is'nt the ball reaction something like 25% core?I want to say more but I've read 10% core so I'll give you the extra 15%.

Is Track back??  Excellent question.  Here's the answer, YES!!!  Mitch Beasley was willing to put his career on the line being the only person on tour to use Track equipment.  Look at the guys that lost their exemption and had alot of balls to choose from.  He kept his job with basically 2 balls.  He made 4 round of 8's.  I am willing to bet that Mitch makes 3 shows this upcoming year. Any takers???

Single density cores are simply cheaper to produce than multiple piece cores. Maybe the old Columbia plant had production problems or maybe they had a much higher standard when it came to a first quality ball versus a second. I don't remember having to be so specific when ordering a certain weight from my distributors with the old stuff as I do now. You just can't ask for a 15lb ball anymore. I see a lot more mid-weight balls these days and quite a few with nicks and dings.

Hey Six, some of us in Jayhawk/Wildcat territory dont mind it up here.  Not a fan of either, but it is better than sooner territory

Also you should have seen Carl in Vegas in his UpRising shirt and working away on marking the balls, he looked pretty sexy then too.  Of course they just had 15 lbs, no 16's, but oh well.
