I have had my Profit for quite a bit now and it deserves a review,
first off I have always been a big fan of AMF and I am now a huge fan of 900 Global,
I have my Profit drilled pin over ring cg out with a balance hole and this ball is my benchmark,
I have already bowled 2) 800's this year with it and several big 700's and this ball does it all,it gets through the heads very well and reads the mid very good and hitting power it has nothing to be ashamed of,I keep trying other balls but keep going back to 900 Global....I also have been averaging over 225 in both my leagues and recently had the house have more mid lane oil so I have a Raw Profit coming hopefully to fill that spot in my bag....I hope they continue the Profit line with maybe a pearl again called the "Net Profit"
thanks Eric and everyone who is involved with the process of making and designing these balls.
sincerely,
Paco Hoopingarner

I have had two Profits so far and both have been a great asset to my bag. For me, I like to think of this ball as a stronger Bounty Hunter Pearl, but with a similar shape.
Anotherwords, this ball, even though it is a pearl, tends to start rolling early and continues with a strong backend. This type of reaction can be very beneficial because not only does it simulate a dull ball reaction (very smooth rolling with a predictable shape), but the pearl cover allows you to also create some tug room, which is very hard to do with normal dull surface equipment.
I highly recommend this ball!

COMMENTS
Likes: Another great ball in my arsenal. I waited to drill mine till i saw more of what it was doing as i was selling them in the shop and i saw alot of good reactions out of my customers. The ball works phenomenol on house patterns and many sport shots as long as their is friction. I also like how well it compliments my bank pearl as my bank pearl handles a bit more oil and has a much more angular shape and as that ball has to be put away when i see transition my profit is a great compliment.
Dislikes: Not much so far, ive had it for awhile and it is probably the first ball out of my bag when i want to score in league as that ball reads so well off friction it throws pins around......for the league bowler looking to make a "profit" this ball definetly comes highly recommended.
