Good Scores???
« on: September 15, 2008, 12:41:51 AM »
Who's been rollin' some good scores with Visionary equipment so far this new fall season?

I haven't put together a great set yet but like what I see with the Blurple and Solid Gladiator.  269 so far.  

What ya got to report????  Like to hear how others are doing.  Where from?  Lane conditon?  League or tourney?  

Now's the time to crow about your bowling prowess.

Thank You MI2AZ. I went 228-300-264. Started with a ball that didn't read the midlane as well and switched about 5 frames too late. Sometimes you just have to admit that as hard as you try, you can't make every ball work, at least I can't. Went 9 pin in the 10th and switched to the O-PART for the fill ball.

Right lane had carrydown but the O-PART pretty much ignored it. As the game progressed my reaction got better. Pulled the 11th one a hair and ball just set for a high flush. Moved 2-1 on the left lane to start the 3rd game on the lane that was making everyone nuts and the O-PART just held the line so well, was almost unfair.

Got really pumped up in the 9th and just flew it by the breakpoint for a 2-4-10.  Could not get angry at all because it was such a fun string. Very interesting ball so far


Wow!! Great job Ken!! I may try the light coat of polish on mine too!!

I should have put the Bounty away sooner. I shot 208 the first game for a nice 745 series.

777 tonight with the O-Part. Got 28 frames out of it before I had to move a board. Took it to 2000 and has been more versatile for me than at 1000. Had good success with Lanemasters polish on top of the 1000 as well.

Just a wonderful, predictable ball. You can't swing the whole lane with it, but if you like going flush shot after shot after shot, this ball definitely helps the cause.

Nice shooting Dbar....the O Pearl was the one I got my first 300 with.  Love that ball.

Krumpy....can't agree more.  That's the one thing I like about the O Particle is that it ignores a lot that other balls have problems with.  We bowled a handicap team that uses plastic.  I threw all 3 games with my O Particle in preparation of the slop going everywhere.  Ball rolled well for all 3 games.

Not throwing anything new...

279 with Granite Gargoyle

266 with combination of Granite and a Hammer Emerald Vibe (one on one lane, one on the other).

Tricky league, different house... havent averaged below 210 in 4 years, and after 5 weeks in this house I was averaging 193 .  I'm up to 203 now and still digging.

Later,

took my ogre ss to 600 grit plus polish.

shot 280 (9/ in the 2nd)

should have switched to the ogre pearl but thought my line wasnt going to disappear. but still even with flush shots i kept leaving 8 and 9 pins (damn twister pins!)

Will finally get back onto this thread for scores instead of commentary.

I've been struggling as of late in the normal league.  I think I am more burnt out on the drama of the team and it's not the same as it was the beginning of the year so I am just not into it now.

Subbing on Thursday and using the G3 mostly as lanes are reacting well with it.  Got to finally shoot some games with the Ogre SS as well.

Last night though, 300 out of the gate with the G3.  Still hit 225 and 212 though the 12 shots in the second game were just as good if not better than the 12 in the first game.  Interesting how that works out.

G3 is strong.....I will say that!!

Thanks!!

SS is definitely longer than the G3...hands down.  Ball gets down and has a strong read....but with my speed at times....I don't like that reaction.  I'm just not a fan of throwing the ball and sitting there saying to myself..."OK...anytime you want to flip....come on....come on".  LOL!!

I took some of the OOB finish off it and now it reads earlier and instill a little more confidence.  Still a strong pop for the finish.

In terms of comparing....I feel the G3 is more well rounded.  For my game and with how I throw, the G3 allows me to swing the ball (for me.... ) and play down and in and anywhere in between.

Not so sure of the SS yet.  Playing mostly down and in with it only.

Off the dry....G3 seems to react a lot sooner than the SS though.

Thanks Scott.....though I don't ever recall you mentioning anything about the NB Pearl!!  Interested in hearing your thoughts!!

Inverted.....assuming you were talking Glad Pearl??  That is a solid ball!!
