Got my first two 300 games with this ball. I still have it too. This is a great ball. It carries light high and sloppy hits very well. It is drilled straight up. 3 inch pin. Smooth roll and a hard snap on the dry part of the lane once it gets through the oil. The After shock doesn't have as many games as my Ti Boss 2 does. I even used it in nationals this year. I could hit well. But my spare shooting was in the toilet. But it will get the job done. i still see them on ebay once in a while. If you have one. Keep it.

I bought this ball to replace my Blue Pirahna "C" for a league that had flooded lanes. The BP"C" had stopped getting up to the pocket, and this was supposed to be stronger. Tried 2 different drillings, and neither one worked. This ball new didn't handle the oil as well as my old BP"C". After Shickdaddy used it for a couple of years, I got it back and polished it. Turned into a good medium to light condition ball, not great but good. While polished, had it straight over the label with pin above the ring finger.

This was a great bowling ball when you could keep it in oil. As long as the ball was in oil it did not roll out or give over/under. It also never lost hitting power when I kept the ball in oil. This ball never let me down in the first block of a tournament or on heavy oil league conditions. But, you should never under any circumstances ever even think of bringing this ball out of the bag unless there is oil on the lanes. Never tried to polish this ball, so that may have helped with dryer lanes.

One of my favorite balls, was actually a hand me down. Very consistant reaction and provides good pin action. Rolled numerous 700's with it and a couple 279s. Label leverage drilling, that's what they did in 1996, it will flare about 4 - 5 inches and on oily lanes I can send it from the 14 / 15 out to 6 / 7 and it always comes back hard, as lanes dry out, I need to move in but the ball remains predictable. I have had this ball for 6 years now and do not plan on replacing it anytime soon.<scr
