807 with Red Zone
« on: September 08, 2006, 01:15:49 PM »
Layout by Jesse James of In the Zone Pro Shop, owner of the Lawrence, KC, and Topeka locations, and drilled by Brian Zachary of In the Zone Pro Shop, manager of the Topeka location.  I've said before it's the best ball I've ever owned, and it keeps proving itself time and time again.  I can use it at every house in town (which is a rarity, given the vast differences in surface and pattern at each different house), and the layout and drill make it absolutely the perfect ball for me to throw.  I subbed tonight at the resurfaced wood house, 39 feet, with ob outside 5 past 30 feet.  It's a little bit flatter shot like my Laneshield house, but if you get inside and project it out to 10, you'll be in the pocket all night.  There was a guy playing a Scorchin down 7, so I had a little bumper that developed outside towards the end of the 2nd game.  Had to work for it too, 230-279-298-807.  Should have tried harder on the last ball of the last game, but I've had 300's, never had 800, so I just picked the ball up and kept it on the lane.  Caved in the 4-6 first shot in the last game, and tripped a couple 4's, but everything else was in the pocket.  Of course I got away with a few here and there, but doesn't everybody?  Feels good to get it done and out of the way though, plus I've never shot 298 before, so I got that ring too . .

Great set Hammy!! The owner of our center just picked one up. He shot 288 right out the box with it, then like a 278 and 290 something I believe. Looks like a winner. Now I need to trade some of my stuff and pick one up. Can ya hook a Kansan up??

Great scores man!

Lol, I can't, but I'm sure Jesse can!  He's got a shop at Park Lanes (I think) in KC, a shop at Royal Crest in Lawrence, and over the summer he bought the shop at West Ridge in Topeka where I used to work.  He obviously knows his stuff (and Brian, his manager at West Ridge can really nail the fit too), so I'd say to get in touch with him when you can get one, and he'll hook you up.

Thanks Brian!  I'll tell you what, you put up another one, and I will, and we ought to have a heck of a team series.  Here's to the only 800's in town so far!
