How many balls do you guys take
« on: March 09, 2005, 02:07:51 PM »
I was just curious on how many balls do you guys take to ABC's??  most people I think end up flying which make the decision harder. Also with the airlines raising heck about the balls...

I had heard this about Reno last year... I brought medium and dry lane equipment.. ended up getting fresh oil on both singles and team... I struggled to get anything to move

Taking 6, but we are driving. Last year flew to Reno and took 2 with me and sent 3 out using the ABC ball service. Which worked very good for me.
This year:
Granite gargoyle-light polish
Burgandy gryphon-light polish
Charcoal Executioner-1500 polish
The Thing-box condition
AMB Centaur-box condition
Spare ball

I usually take 4, but we're driving this year so I brought 6.
