Title: What was your 1(YES ONE...) favorite Zone
Post by: DP3 on August 11, 2003, 02:22:54 AM

Mine was the Zone Defense  That ball was money.  The remake of it(Mike Aulby MVP) was even better since it didn't track out in 12 games.

Well, I had 3 Zones.... the D2Z, Control Zone and Riot Zone.

I would have to say my favorite out of those was the Control Zone.  It was just much more predictable for me and I shot my highest game/series with that ball.  I have since retired and sold all of them, but I still loved the Zone balls.

I've had two. Danger Zone and Speed Zone.
Tough call, but I'd have to go with the Speed Zone.
I bought another one just recently - love it just like the first one!

the original danger zone was a great ball. the danger zone red alert was a great ball. the danger zone pro hpd was also a great ball. the best ball however didn't have the "zone" logo on the ball but it really should have. the johnny petraglia lt-48 gold, which was made from 1997-2000, was the best of the bunch. it had the powrkoil 18 reactive resin coverstock that the danger zone and red alert had. the weightblock design was from the rhino pro le. this ball was very versatile and had a strong, heavy roll. i used them very dull on oily lanes and highly polished on medium to medium-dry lanes with great results on both.

Hello,

I feel without the Danger Zone there would not be the Red Alert, and I always have said the Danger Zone is the best ever...  but I'd have to say the RED ALERT is the best.  I still use the Red Alert almost exculsively.  Never died, and never has lost any of its hit which is the best of any ball I have thrown.  The other best Zones would be the Sapphire Zone, and then the Combat Zone.  Average 229 with the old Red Alert in an eight-sweeper recently, which will win me quite a bit of money, and in another tournament after that averaged 232 with the Red Alert for nine games.  The ball has hit every single condition I have ever bowled ont.  I have not found one yet where the Red Alert will not work.  So yes, I guess...  Red Alert...  best ever Zone!

Yeesh!

I guess I wasn't the only one who chose a Contact
Zone 2 point oh!!!!

Mine's the dullish opaque flat medium sea foamy/foresty green.

Ok,so I'm part time color blind,its still a great ball in the
Zone!

Thats all.

I really only threw two Zones, the Blue Pro Zone, and the Riot Zone, and I liked the Blue Pro the best......actually make that three if you count the Time Zone.  Blue Pro Zone is still my favorite, nice roll, and carried fantastic.

Sorry, but with the Big B, you can't have just ONE favorite...

Throughout my rather short bowling career, I've had 4 Sapphire Zones in my possesion. In my opinion, they'd all be my favorite. Also, just picked up the OG Danger Zone and am starting to like it more and more by the day.

The Riot Zone was a great ball while I had it...never should have given it away. Let's see, the list goes on and on. Danger Zone Red Alert, solid Combat Zone, Combat Zone pearl are also all great balls.

Tough call between the OG Danger Zone and the Combat Zone Pearl. Combat Zone was the first "reactive" ball I bought, Danger Zone was picked up a little while later and seemed to carry better. Loved em both, sold em both. Considering a Time Zone however.....
