My first bowling ball review!
« on: July 22, 2016, 04:00:04 PM »
Hello! Finally I finished my first bowling ball review. Please check it out! Is the new Motiv release, the new Forza GT. Any feedback is appreciated!

I am not affiliated with any company, I am not a staffer, I just love bowling and I want to do bowling ball reviews so people like me can feel related with the way I throw the ball.

Enjoy!

Nice video, I just got the GT last Tuesday night and I love that ball. Mine is drilled 4x4x2 which is pretty aggressive but it was the ball to have on my Wednesday night league which had a lot

of oil out (for once) as I played up the 6 board all night and carried everything...it was awesome :)

I like your video especially how you compared the GT against the Forza and also against the Shock & Cobra.  Being a righty, I wish it incorporated the technology to switch the view so it looks like a right hand shot as well.  Good job and thanks for your efforts.

Thanks! Yes, I really liked the ball too. Before getting this one my original Forza is probably one of my favorites of all time, but this GT looks promising, those 7 pins are gone at least for now, you are right, it has great carry! :)

Thanks Bowlaholic, I appreciate it man. I will try to do maybe a mirror review for all those right handers out there? That might work right? The next review will be out this week, I'll let you know if I can make it happen!

This is meant as constructive criticism as but I hear a double thump every time you deliver the ball at the line.  You also seem to have a shortish back swing.  To me this means loose ball fit and grabbing then dumping at line.  It probably doesn't show up much on house patterns but on flatter blended patterns it would exhibit this factor much more. 

All in all very good video especially from a non-staffer as you put in a lot of work for no gain.  I applaud you!

Thanks Scott. Yes, I do have a kind of short back swing, sometimes I do have the habit of squeezing the ball because I am not used to a tight thumb, I am trying to correct that but it takes time lol... Thanks for your comments, stay tuned for the next review which will be ready next week.
