yet another TRAIN post...
« on: May 22, 2012, 01:18:11 PM »
Greeting 900ers

 Just thought I would post in here that I just ordered a TRAIN and should pick it up tomorrow or Thursday  8)

 I have been throwing a lot of Roto-Grip/Storm gear and thought I would try something different.

 I almost got the EBO Pursuit-S and came soooo close, however, the TRAIN won me over  ;)
Now throwing pretty much all flavors...

Good call. Just dropped my Train by the shop to get holes punched in it. Bowling on the USBC shot tonight, and my Bank is good, but I want to see what shape I get out of the Train. I'm guessing stronger earlier, with more control on the back.

WOW!! what a really good looking ball. Anyway, I shot a descent 686 series with it and of course it would have been better but I missed a couple of 6 pins :(

But this is a very very good ball and what a hook monster, here's hoping it doesn't lose its hooking power after I put some games on it. Well worth the $$$ I paid for it.

15 lbs
3-4" pin
4.5" pin from pap
pin at about 2:00 on ring finger

Wow! I love the way this ball rolls. Its hook is huge but controlled but then again I'm an old dude :) so some young gun with a lot of revs will have a fun time with this ball.

Btw, what ball G-900 ball would go under this ball? it seems they have a  lot of very strong balls and then kinda weak balls...dunno, I'm just guessing as there doesn't seem to be a lot on the usual ball sites.

Jake,

What kind of look are you looking for? About everything is under the Train. Nuts Pearl, or the new Sure Thing. Nuts solid is a good choice too. Let me know what it is you're looking for, and I can assist you.
