this is a very good ball for dry lanes,dont throw it into oil thouhg it will straightrn up and not finish. if you have hand and a lot of backend you can play this one deep and still carry.i have a tendency to leave 5 pins with mine as it doesnt run throuhg the pins very hard [no real weight block to speak of].you also may leave some 8 -9 pins because of this.overall i was very satisfied wuth this ball though. ive shot a couple of honor scores on dry lanes with it.i rolled a 296 with a friend of mines. left the big four trying to hit the pocket too much.

I love the amount of hook this ball has for a three piece and a mild reactive coverstock. I can use it on up to med-heavy conditions which I find rather amazing. This ball carries very very well and hits harder than you may think. It is also very easy to adjust when using this ball on the right conditon becuase it will always find its way to the pocket somehow. If you have a ton of hand and want a ball for medium conditons, I would suggest sanding this ball down to a low grit for the best possible hook. I really like the colors on this ball although they seem to get diry rather fast, and the smell dissapates after a while. And now for the Ratings: Hook: 55/100 (Pretty Good) Breakpoint: 10/100 (Smoothest ball EVER!) Length: 80/100 (Late Hooker)

For a ball that costs almost nothing, and has almost nothing inside of it, this thing can move in the back. It rolled through the heads really nicely and came back right where it needed to. Smells like pepto bismol. This thing will get ugly really fast if you don't take care of it, it has a very light coverstock. Depending on how you drill it, this could be a great spare ball, or a good ball for medium to dry lanes. If you are a cranker that doesn't always like to play all the way across the lane, try it out, it doesn't cost much.

A friend of mine gave this ball to me and told me " this is the best spare ball around." I had the ball drilled 4 1/4 because I knew it would need all the juice it could get. The first time I threw the ball it may have hook maybe 4 to 5 boards, but when it hit the pocket it hit hard. If you can get the ball into the pocket it does petty good about carrying, but I left some weird pocket splits like the 4, 7, 9. The best thing about this ball isn't what it can do in the pocket, it's the simple fact that I can pick up spares, especially 10 pins all day. I love it. A good ball from beginner to pro.

STORM KING
excellent ball over all with good control and hitting power, but when the lanes are flooded i have to use one of my Trauma . I works better on the medium to light oil lanes. The ball is more consistent and easy to control when polished because the polish gives the ball time to get down the lane and help control arc at the pins. If you sand the ball to 2000 grit and maintain it wiht a high polish about every 3-4 weeks the brillant for every type of spares you leave. If the ball is dull it will tend to lose its hitting power in which it hit the pins like a feather . Overall a excellent ball that will arc and hit consistently but if you are to wide on your shot it will skid and roll out of the shot.

No"B"Ball
Ball Specs- 15lbs., 1" pin, 3oz Top weight Drilled with a standard label drill for minimal reaction. I use this ball when the lanes are scorched and to pick up single pin spares. If I flatten the ball out (no cranking) it'll only cover about 4 boards shooting across the lane which works well for my 10 pin. It is a 3-piece ball so no surprise on what I got--$60 spare and last option ball for those houses that save money with no oil. I'll update this review futher if I find that it works for any other purpose. I have also found that it works on medium lanes that have a clean back end but I still only use it when my "A" game shot breaks down. It allows my to play a 10-5 line which is unusual for me. Strokers won't get much out of this ball. An excellent ball for my arsenal, it's low on versatility but fits in my game nicely.<scrip

The Great One
I love this ball!! I usally use it when the lanes are burned up, which is often at the house i bowl at, or use it up the side when i have no other line. Drilled w/the pin over the fingers and the cg slightly to the left of the span for some negative weight, this ball hits like a truck when it gets into a roll from some dry boards. If hits oil, any at all, skids and hits weak. Lots of 10pins and weak 8's. 2nd night i had this ball i shot 289 w/it. I also use it for a spare ball. The pleasure has been yours. The great one

I just had this drilled and threw a few shots in practice and couldnt miss the pocket, so i played a few games and shot 248, 159, 254 for a 661! Ignore the middle game...i had 3 X's, 2 solid 10pins, a completely stone cold 7pin which the messenger managed to somehow miss, 2 2-4-10washouts, ...and, oh yeh...2 of those pocket ball 7-10's! So it wasnt actually that bad a game in my view! Anyway down to the review! Just when i thought my Eraser went long... this ball is like a spareball, except that once it hits the backend it changes into a strikeball! This is exactely what you will need if you throw the ball slowly. In a way im quite stunned that a ball which i wasnt expecting to be all that special actually works impressively well on our league pattern (pretty flat, medium-light oil, 40ft). I had it drilled 3 1/2" x 2", and it flares very little till about 35-40', flares up and just rolls on the backend and doesnt stop till its in the pit, along with 10 pins. If you have lo
