HEY GUYS!

I'm throwing nothing but Track now but I would like to put in my thoughts on some of Columbia 300's equipment that I felt was definitely worth throwing.

THROTTLE SERIES
ICON SERIES
FORMULA
RICOCHET REBOUND

From the current line, I have a buddy of mine who is on C300s Amateur Staff who is really making the ACTION ATTACK look really sweet! Anyway, those are just some that come to mind that I really liked and use to throw! God Bless You All and have a great week!

I dont know how many of you guys had it but the overdrive was a great ball and it was really versital, almost like a better version of what they wanted from the full throttel. The alter ego core matched well with the solid accelerator cover. Polished it would go long and snap, dull it would read really well on heavy oil. If you drilled it strong you could get it to skid more with a little polish, if you drilled it to go long it would read nice with a dull finish. In the last say 4 years with columbia releases this is the most overlooked. Yet my fav of all time is the original icon. That ball brought columbia to the front hold of coverstock development.

U-Turn reactive.  Superflex was a great coverstock.

I've thrown alot of companies equipment the past 8 years and when I sit back and think about it, a large majority of my favorites have been Columbia(although I wouldn't touch the new stuff).

Some of my favorites have been:
Piranha Original & Retro
Red Pulse(Original) & Blue Pulse(Remake)
Tremor Solid
Green Messenger
Rock On & Classic Rock
Ricochet & Rev

I think it ended there.

Yes they are NIB 15lbs. I paid $400 for both of them.
I acutally have a single drill 16lbs that has minimal games on it. I was thinking about dumping it on Ebay.



Actually mine is a 16lb. Im changing all my stuff to 15lb and would really love to keep this ball. But $200 is a little steep

Have thrown a lot of Columbia, but two stand out;

Rock Star
Flipside Wow Pearl

Rock Star helped me win more money than any other ball. If I had not switched 15 lb, I would still be throwing it. Anybody have a new in box 15 lb.
