900 Global Network, this ball carries even the off hits!
« on: February 10, 2014, 11:56:42 PM »
900 Global has out done themselves!!! I give this ball 5 out of 5 stars.  This ball is great for every type of lane condition. This balls gets down the lane, whether you're a cranker or down-and-in bowler, and rolls up hard to the pocket.  This ball even carries the off hits! It's a must have ball, complete with an extra 5-10 pins added to your average!

I just don't get why you would do a 3 inch pin for a max flare on a strong Assym when studies have shown that on anything stronger than a medium assym ball that 5,5 inches is the most flare potential. Even on symmetricals, I don't go with anything stronger than a 4 inch pin to pap unless I want to play straighter with it.

A higher pin will transition faster in the back so it will have a shorter hook phase. If by weaker layout you mean covers less boards, its all relative. It could cover less it could cover more. Depends on a lot of variables.....

Didn't think a 3" pin to pap was designed for max flare? Correct me if I am wrong, but on a dual angle layout, the pin to pap distance dictates the flare. So the bigger the pin to pap, the more flare. Just my 2 cents.

Symmetrical that may be true, but on an assym anything between 2-3/4" and 6-1/2" is in the "max flare" range.

Well, I used it last night in league for the first time for all 3 games.  After messing with the thumb hole and getting some practice with it on Monday, just focusing on getting out of the ball cleanly, I saw the good roll everyone else was talking about.

I shot 226, 266, 213-705.  From the first game to the 2nd game, I threw 11 in a row before leaving a 6 pin in the 7th frame of the 2nd game.  I then proceeded to blow the high game pots by forgetting how to bowl on the 11th shot and threw a 7 count, needed to strike to win high game and big p. :)

The reaction I get is what I was hoping for when drilling this.  I have to move in a bit, but not as much as I do with my Hy-Road Pearl.  It gets down the lane well, and then when it gets to the backs and flips controllably and so far the carry is good.  I left quite a few 6 pins last night, and missed making big enough moves to get back flush.  I usually only need to move 1/2-1 board, but last night I found it by making a bigger move, but too late in the game.

I'm going to get some more practice with this ball, and continue to work on getting out of the ball because that's what I've been struggling with all season, and see how it goes.
