I think there is a video of Nick throwing one of these on www.Brunsnick.com . I think this is the url: http://www.brunsnick.com/rhino_gold.html

  Might not be as "up the edge" as you might think.

Nick is a hoss, he could wheel urethane on a house shot if he wanted.

Here is a vid of a combat zone tracer (same cover, close to the same core).
Fresh house shot, up the 6 board for a few shots.
I have very little hand in this vid, makes a big difference on a house shot.

wow, i just picked up a ball from my bowling alley as well, and guess what? the same thing!

but i will have to plug it and redill it cuz its for full rollers right now
--------------------
When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.

Another thing you'll never see on ballreviews...

An intelligent post by 300bowlny. Give it a rest, and stop posting on your foreign made computer.

same clown who wrote this on the columbia board.

China is probably the worlds # 1 exporter of products. Mexico's exports are mostly garbage. I think Nike, Rebok etc...come from China and they are good products.


Do I need to get out that checklist?

EDIT:
Ahh... here it is... whew, thought I lost it.

300bowlNY:

1. Back away from the keyboard.
2. Turn off the monitor.
3. Turn off the computer.
4. Unplug it.
5. Load computer into your car.
6. Drive to the nearest bridge/river.
7. Step to the edge with computer parts.
8. Toss.
9. Try not to fall in with it.

These simple steps will make this site a better place.

Very well spoken by the Truth. And we all know.....the Truth hurts!

Not bashing Brunswick's quality at all.

This is just the reason why I no longer buy Brunswick balls.
It's not good for America.

It's one thing for a misguided Prez to turn your nation into a 3rd world country, but when the corporations start helping, I have had enuff!
