First 300 with Bounty-1st day its released
« on: October 29, 2008, 12:48:10 AM »
Bounty's started shipping nationwide yesterday.  Local shop guys have the benefit of driving over to pick theirs up....Joe Brock drilled his and literally his first game out of box in league 300.  Unfortunately for Joe being a staff member excludes him from staking his claim to the Bounty.  He almost backed up a second 300 last game but as Phil states he "Brocked" it.  Congrats Joe on your 40th career 300 in 40 years.

Eric,

  Congratulations on what appears to be another successful release and also a great promotion. I may not agree with Globals marketing ideas, but Phis IS a genius when it comes to bowling ball technology. You have to give him that one as it's a no brainer.

  You and I have dealt before, although you may not remember.  You helped me aquire an A.M.F. TITAN once as our shops distributor kept saying they couldn't get one. Since then I have always seen any company you are associated with as a responsive, customer oriented one.  That fact still remains.

  The BOUNTY is probably a really great ball, problem is, when I hear BOUNTY I keep thinking about paper towels. No joke, it really makes me think about paper towels before it does bowling balls.

  Tell Mr. Brock congratulations on his game and series for me. Sounds like he really bowled great.

drilled another??
quote:
ATM we are trying our 3rd surface on Joe Brock`s Bounty.
First try was factory surface with a coat of Beans sauce on fresh THS, just needed a little more surface once there was some carry down. 2nd try was with 800 cleaner then a coat of Snake oil, same results, plenty of ball even with polish just a little late once some carry down comes into to play. So tonight we have it at 600 wet-sanded with 2000 degree polish. Shall let you know how that goes.
But for sure then ball handles polish well, and still remains strong and almost skid/snap on fresh THS.

This ball was his second he has drilled up. The first one was drilled up 5x4 and we tested several new polishes we had in the shop. The second one he drilled up and bowled with last night was a new one. This time using his favorite drill pattern and polish

His favorite house drill pattern is 5.5x4 with the MB about 2 inches on right of thumb hole. Pap is 5 3/4 by 1/4 up. We left the coverstock in OOB and used magic shine. This combo lets him use it for THS, otherwise this ball would be to strong around here in the lane oil starved houses of San Antonio.
Sometime next week if I can get him to practice again, going to compare the bounty to his 75 and N-code.

I think he should have had a Shiner Bock in his other hand when he took the picture for the website. Now that's the real Joe I know!
