bowlingball.com question
« on: February 16, 2014, 11:02:30 PM »
i really wanna do the Chosen Path/Origin deal for $200 but noticed you have to special instruct what you want...

so my question is are they any good about about getting you specific top weight and pin if you request it? im just wondering because i have heard from a few people they have had a hell of a time getting the specs they wanted and bowlingball not really caring

...thanks for any info

I never bought anything through bowlingball.com, so I really can't give feedback for them.  When I've specified specific pin distances/top weight from bowlerx.com, there haven't been any issues.

I have had great success...

I always ask for 2-3 oz top, 3-4" pins...

I pretty much get that every time...they won't let you down..If anything I'll get something like 3.07 oz, 3-3.5 "...When I'd rather have 2.×× oz top weight, and 4 " in pin...

Buy with confidence...they know how to please..

They have a 1/2" and 1/2 oz tolerance on pin and top weight. So if you want a 2-3" pin, request a 2.5" and you'll get one within that range. If they don't have something that fits that range, they will let you know the closest available.

thanks for the info guys...i wasn't looking for anything special, 3-4 pin, 3-4 top weight or close to that...short pin balls just don't work as good for me for some reason

Never had a problem with them and Julie in customer service is fantastic to work with.
I've never been disappointed in what they sent me.

I have never special ordered from them, but never had any problems with the balls that I have purchased from them.  Btw, you will love that chosen path!  Best ball I have ever had. Just keep the surface fresh as it does like to shine up quick.
