So I recommended the Buzz to another bowler...
« on: February 16, 2007, 04:17:01 AM »
My dad bowls on a team with another bowler who looking for another ball to go below his Yeah Baby. Older fellow, pretty much plays 12-5 or down 8. Good bowler avgs in the mid 180's I believe.

So a couple weeks ago I stopped out to see how mt dad was doing in league and his teammate came up to me asking if I could recommend a ball that would allow him to get more "hook" on the backend when his Yeah Baby would "stop hooking". He (& alot or others) don't trust the proshop, lol. He told me what times of the day he bowled and I pretty much know what conditions he will see.

I did him a little reserach and figured the Buzz would be what he was looking for...Good choice ?

Well today I stop in to see my dad and his teammate came up to me asking to buy me lunch because the ball I recommended was (in his words) "the best damn bowling ball I've ever threw..."I whipping up on all the other seniors now"

So I stayed around to chat with my dad an observe the Buzz in action. Well he shot 225 the first game and 244 the second game, lol. I had to run in the beginning of the 3rd game, but he already had a 4 bagger on the screen !

Even though I've had shabby luck with Legends + Lanemaster gear, I was spot on recommending the Buzz to him.

Thought you guys would wanna here my story

Good story and obviously a great recommendation Chad. Ever though of a pro shop busniess? Sounds like you could gather quite a clientelle quickly. Once you get the seniors, the rest come pretty easy!

Me run a proshop ?...LOL

There is no way I could deal with people coming in complaining about their ball not hooking...

Serious though... He was tossing the ball about 12.4-12.4 and totally destroying the rack. He stoned a couple 9's and had messengers taking them out !

I was seriously impressed with the pin action and hit the ball was giving him. Made that "crack" sound also. Some of my old Lane #1 balls didn't even hit like that when I threw them...LOL

Also I talked to the shop (I know them sorta kinda) and  I got him the ball for $189 + tax out the door...
