So first off, I need to thank Mr. Rick Leong for being an amazing ball driller.. A few months back, he made some pretty drastic changes to my fit that have allowed me to experience something of a resurgance of my game. With that being said, about a week and a half ago, I received a Temper from him that we had been discussing for some time. Originally, we were going to go with a RICO drilling with the ball because of some issues that I have with my home house being a very wet/dry shot. Before the ball was drilled, I decided to make some additional changes to my game that added a little ball speed and came to the conclusion that RICO might not be the right way to go.
So with this ball, we went with the pin under the bridge and the MB about 1/2" off of the vertical grip line. What I ended up with was probably the best benchmark ball that I have had in nearly 10 years. In 10 sanctioned games since I have received the ball, I have gotten a pair of 300 games and darn near gotten an 800 series (793). The ball reads the mids very well and does amazing things on the last 10' of the lane. In the center that I am bowling in, I think that I am the only person that throws any Track equipment, but I have the feeling that will change just from the people that have seen how strongly this ball rolls.
As for my stats, I don't know my rev rate or ball speed, but Rick has described me as rev dominant. My track is slightly lower than normal, but has actually crept back up the ball a little after the changes Rick made to my fit (going from about 2" from the thumb and fingers up to slightly over an inch). One thing that I can say is that I have a new first ball out of the bag! Thank you Track and Rick for this amazing piece!
