Which ball out of the new lineup are you most excited for? For me I think I can't wait to try the 912T and 706A.

300A for sure I have alot of hand and I can't wait to have a angular ball under my 300T when it brakes down so I can move left and wheel ;)

300A
…… you can't  add a physics term to a bowling term and expect it to mean something.

I'm thinking the 706A and could always fit a 912T under my Defiant by going pin up instead of pin down.  Although I can also see the 503T as a possible eventual replacement to the 505T if it's close enough.

Out of all of them I'm looking at maybe getting a 300A

I agree for a league bowler the 300A looks to be the most useable.

Definitely getting a 503T, might get a 706A if it's comparable enough to the 607A. Can't see myself getting the 912T (unless I somehow win one on Track's Facebook page), because the 716T gets the job done on the heavier stuff or the 300A because I think I throw it too hard.
Instead of "A Future For The Sport", it really should be "A Sport Without A Future"

I've never thrown a 700 or 300 series ball so I still need to give one of those a go, but the 920T is my go to ball so I'll probably give the 912T a look. I'm most interested in the 503T to replace my 505T which has seen a ridiculous amount of games. I wish they would do what Columbia did and do a re-release of the 505T even if only a limited batch release. Say, should Fagan win player of the year....

If the 505T were to come back out as a limited release, I would absolutely pick 1 or 2 more up.  I bought my current 505T from Dave81644 on here a while back and that ball is just flat out awesome.  It's a hell of a piece on virtually all medium and some medium-heavy shots I find.  It's definitely my go to ball in the arsenal.

Hmmm, I'm skeptical that any bowler would see a noticeable difference between the 300C and 300A without surface changes and/or different layouts.

Looking forward to the 300A or the 706A, hoping to find a Track version of the Hammer Black Taboo.

tommyboy, glad you like it, i was pretty sure you would
I went to 15 lb this year and picked 2 of them.
ended up winning handicap doubles and 2nd place in scratch doubles (by 4 pins)
city of milwaukee tourney using my pin up 505t for minors and that ball is flat out awesome.
hope the 503t is close for when i need replacements

Cover makes a huge difference.  That's all the 300T and 300C are...different shells and they are completely different types of reactions.

I just picked up a used 916AT. I think a 503T would be a good compliment for it.

300C is a pearl, 300T is a solid. This - and the finishing process - explains their different reactions. 300A is also a pearl. While the new cover is likely stronger, it's still a 3-series ball, which indicates to me that the shell isn't THAT much stronger. I doubt that the average bowler would see enough difference to justify having both, unless they changed layout and/or surface.
