Well I shot 300 in the last (4th) game of my Thursday night trio late league. I was using the AMF300 Sideways drilled pin above the ring. I used a different ball for the 1st 3 games and switched to the Sideways to start the 4th game and I''m glad I did!! This ball is great for me when the lanes go through transition.
All but 2 of the shots where 10 back. I had a light hit in the 8th and the last ball came in light but was a nice working ball strike. (No brooklyn''''''''s Gary!!)
Thanks To Eric Thomas for the suggestions on how to drill this ball. Also thanks to Kurt Gengelbach, the best ball driller in the DFW area!!

congrats.. how did eric suggest to drill the ball??

congrats!! Sideways is where its at!!!

Thanks guys..
I had a ball with a very long pin (4.5 - 5.0 inches) so I put the pin about 2 inches straight above the ring finger with the cg stacked under. I played around with the cover a little bit by using a 4k abralon pad on it and I didn''''t really like that so I then polished it up and that wasn''''t the ticket either. I then put some Storm Pro finish compound step 2 on the ball and it seemed to return the ball to the box finish which is what I wanted.

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Nice bowling, AMF, Global are making some quality equipment right now.

I have to say when I first punched this ball I wasn't exactly sure if I was going to make it a main stay in the bag. Well after several weeks of using it it is now a crucial part of my arsenal and pleasently surprised and happy with the reaction and carry!

Congrats on the 300.
I am with you Hosel. At first I was having doubts on the ball, at 4000 abralon as I had it at the beginning, it was kinda weak and very over under. When the shot was there is was a monster, when not it ws crap.
I took it to 600 grit sandpaper and polished over top. WOW! What s different ball, definitly a bag worthy ball now. It is like it came to life, in strength and recovery

What is sandbagging???
