Moxie is all that and then some
« on: October 01, 2014, 11:32:39 AM »
I started last night in practice where I always line up from the week before and I has a serious problem even coming close to the pocket.  the problem was it was crossing over every ball  LMAO  this ball is a beast with out a doubt. I had to move way left  standing 37 and had to throw at the 13 board  with 19MPH speed just to hit the pocket with this ball. I drilled it PIN over ring finger and just a tad kicked to the right.  The dual angle drill ended up being   39 X 5 3/4 X 30   you are going to need some oil if your wanting to throw this ball thats for sure but it is a muct ball to have in your arsenal thats for sure. I have a feeling this ball is going to be a BIG hit for nationals in 2015.   I had to put the ball away in the 5th frame in the 2nd game because it was just breaking way to hard on the backend and the angle sucked as well leaving 4 straight 10 pins to start the 2nd game  1st game I did have a 257 staring with the front 5 strikes before I left 2 solid 9 pins back to back.

If you want it, go after it and make it happen.  If you don't, you have no one to blame but yourself....or maybe your just not throwing the right equipment  :)

Well, I revisited the center where my Amp went straight on fresh oil, but now they have a brand new Kegel machine laying down a revised Stone Street pattern.  Now the place bowls like it's medium-light instead of Heavy oil.  Most other folks started their set with their weaker balls and moved to weakest by the fourth game.  The Amp did fine this time but I'm still worried when the travel league reaches the next center and they in fact do have heavy oil. 

I'm also wondering if high ball speed on THS means the Moxie would still be the wiser chice or if the Dream would be better and more versatile.

Vernon Petersen in Bowlers Journal also said this may be a good ball for high speed/low rev players.  It sounds like what I want.  I'm tempted by the Motiv Forza too but I'll need to see more reviews first.
