Columbia 300 Ego Bowling Ball

(6 reviews) Write a Review

Yeah...that’s right! Your EGO did that! When you let your Ego speak for itself, the competition will be speechless. The new Ego from FlipSide provides the perfect combination of roll in oil and control in the midlane, allowing the UFD (Ultimate Friction in Dry) coverstock to take over for a quick response down the lane. So it’s OK to be an Ego maniac! You’ll drive your competition crazy.

    This ball looks like it has the same weight block as the Action and the Ricochet Rebound. Just a pearl particle. It will move if you throw it slow, baby it, or use a big hand. Since I have drilled it out to negative, this animal has been tamed. It is perfect for when the shot starts to really break down. Swing it out and let it roll hard. The pins just fell all over the place. As long as there was enough juice to get it out to the break point it was pocket city. I can't wait to take this one to Nationals. I also want to give Kudos to Columbia for getting Circle and Chip to San Antonio. Go Spurs!!!

    This ball its great the ball goes too long and turn with a very snap backend hits like a monster truck hit very very hard the ball is drilled with the pin over the ring finger and de cg off the center grip 1 " the ball hooks very well its very consistent and predectible hooks very similar to the formula but it goes more long and has a more powerfull backend and a more agressive roll thanks columbia for make this great balls and the formula and the professional bully big bully backyard bully and full throttle ...well for all the balls did you make !!!!

    If you noticed what balls i own you would realize im a columbia bowl down to the soul. Bought this ball right before christmas, great ball for medium oil to light oil. Mine is drilled with the pin located above and between middle and ring finger. The way its drilled, is to give me all length and maximum backend reaction with pin killing affect, and does it ever. Constiently bowl over 200 with. Used it to qualify for the highschool colligate tournament bowling a 277 for a 693 series (top qualifier from house). 4-13-05 bowled a 230-300-250 780 series (my first 300) 4-27-05 bowled a 194-300-246 740 series (second 300 in just two weeks) GO GET THIS BALL!!! COLUMBIA IS THE BEST - THERE'S A REASON WHY ITS COLUMBIA 300!!<s

    14 pound ball with a 2 inch pin and about 3 ounces of top weight before drilling. Drilled it stacked leverage with a weight hole on Pap and left it in box finish. The ball is very clean through the heads and makes a very strong move when it finds dry. Stay aggressive and you will be rewarded with excellent pocket % and great carry. If you are slow with your ball speed or adjustments you will go split high. For those of you who like to attack the lane, this is an excellent choice. No hook in oil and a really strong move off of the dry. This is what reactives were meant to be.

    This ball is amazing, I threw it for the first time and it hooks... A LOT. I had it drilled to slide further then normally, and it still hooked A LOT in the back end. This ball never rolls out unless you do something completely wrong... I would not recommend this ball for beginners or anyone with a slow ball speed. If you do get the Ego and you have a slower ball speed... watch out. Ball set up: 3 1/2 Inch Pin from Cg Pin above both fingers Cg Kicked out an inch No weight hole And yes with this set up... Its STILL HOOKED a ton. And no i wasn't on dry lanes, they were probly somewhere in between medium and Heavy oil. EDIT: THis ball after i started throwing it correctly, kind of didn't do anything, no backend, no turn, no anything. Had it rejuved, had it resurfaced, has it sanded, NOTHING, no turn. Only way it would hook was on dry lanes that had a medium to short length.<
