OMG, I think I'm wanting to become a member of the Nation!!!
« on: November 30, 2005, 04:12:58 PM »
I bowl a late scratch league on Wednesday nights.  Average down almost 20 pins from last year (229).  I swore I was not going to drill a ball specifically for this league.  I drill everything with Regionals and tournaments in mind.  Well....

I drilled a Punisher yesterday, and threw it tonight.  276, 229 (missed a 10 pin and Big 4 in the 10th, and 226, (missed another 10 pin).  

Man, is the ball clean through the front.  Much longer than a Rampage.  Good skid, not jerky on back end, no over/under like Red Pin Zone Classic.  Hits good, very nice ball.  I know it is not new, but I have not been drilling many new balls for myself this last 4-5 months.

Now I want to try a Vapor Zone and another Absolute Inferno!!  Oh yeah, want an Ambush too!!!  AAAAAggggghhhhh!!!!  The horror, the pain!!!!

At least he didn't find the beer and our Nation Brunettes.  Or get the Brunettes to serve him the beer.

Two questions for you, Mr. Austin:

1.  How did you lay out the Punisher?
2.  You're at 229, and that's almost 20 pins down from last year?

229 was last year, about 210 this year.

Pin over my fingers, cg slightly out, no hole.  This is about a 4 5/8 pin to PAP and 4 1/2 cg to PAP.

BTW, I practiced with my Fuze Eliminator tonight, man I love that ball!  Got that ball from Mumzie!!!

If you like the Eliminator, you'll *love* the Ambush.  Trust me on that one.
