it's a lane 1 bowling ball. not sold in malaysia currently. retailing in US at $300, but u can buy a new one for about $200. usd ah.

but all worth the price for me! i've been using my primary ball for like 8 yrs and i couldn't find one suitable to replace it. if this one is as good as what i think, i'm probably gonna buy a few more to keep to use in 5/10 yrs time!

lane 1,elite and some more we nvr heard b4 is very good they produce very hard impack,
but u must be sure that u can control the ball,
it might carry the pins 10 times better but does ur score goes up or down,

not to say the ball not good,every ball is good but must see do it fit the bowler bowling style,
i got alot ball,ranging from low to high range,
but the only ball fits me is medium and low range ball
all my high range ball i just keep it a side and wait for the right moment to use it
mostly i only use medium to low range to play tournaments
no chance to use high range ball
unless i go overseas

yup, i agree.

"it's the ball that chooses the bowler, not the bowler that chooses the ball."

i've bought about 5 high end balls before this and they never fit me and i soon sold them off while hardly using them. that's why when i started throwing this one, I just knew it's different and i found the one i've been looking for.

so far i've been hitting mostly 200 games with this, considering i've just started using it. still learning how it reacts on different lanes but so far it is very versatile. works well on fresh lanes and when the lane opens up, i can swing it out and still get to the pocket with lots of carry. i'm even getting carries on wrong shots which I know I wouldn't have gotten with my old ball.

Wow that is sweet

Getting carries when the wrong shots are thrown.


Where did you get yours from ?

hmm maybe i might get 1 also lol

Added on June 5, 2007, 12:19 pmis not that u throw a wrong shot and can strike

that is call ''the area'', meaning if u throw a wrong shot 1-2 bords away from the target, ball still can stay and hit the pocket
normally oiling pattern only create this ''area''
but now technology is so advance, even the ball can make the area wider
like the ball is remote control and knows where the pockets is
but
all in all the bowlers also must know how to bowl lar, not buta buta play lol

Added on June 5, 2007, 1:07 pmwhat i meant by wrong shot was i didn't get the proper fingering on it.

i didn't know there are bowling ball with remote control. hehe.

back in the days, u have to create all the revolution and spin on the ball yourself. the premium was on skilled bowlers. but these days, the ball does all the work for you and even ah beng bowlers can shoot high scores.... like me. hehe.
