Reviews what do you think?
« on: March 20, 2010, 08:34:13 AM »
Hello everybody!
I have written a couple of reviews.  These are my first reviews, and I am not sure what you would like to know.  So, I am curious what you think about the current reviews.  What could I add to make it more useful?

Thanks for the replies.

So, I see that there have been almost 100 views in the last day.  I know that these are my first reviews are they not even worthy of criticism?  I would like to write reviews that are helpful for you when considering Brunswick equipment.  What can I do to improve them?
Thanks,
Dennis Rhodes

I was thinking about reviews just yesterday.

I used to post a lot of them when I first joined but almost every bowler is different and every style as well.

Most of these reviews are taken with a grain of salt, just seen a few same ol' same ol' corny reviews that many have come to expect from staffers or hype men.  How is it possible that ever changing technology can do the exact same thing over and over again in these reviews?...It's just mind numbingly boring.

I'll be honest yours are very good, truthful and not one sided.  Pointing out what didn't work for you is important because I basically won't even read a review if I see any staffer under the name.

The only thing you might want to add can be how you played the lanes with the test ball on whatever condition you are on and if you varied your release or not.

Overall pretty good reviews though.

A_P_K,
Thanks.  I appreciate your feedback.  On future reviews, I will make sure to add a section on preferred lane play with release style and condition.
Thanks,
Dennis Rhodes

Dennis,

They are fine. Most reviews on this site haven't put half the effort you did into yours. Keep up the good work.

I agree Dennis... they are good. After reading yours and some other ones I plan on getting a bit more in detail with my next reviews.

Pics of the ball showing it's surface and layouts would be useful to those bowlers who don't understand pin to PAP and weight holes up and down the VAL.  You did well for first time reviewing.
