Apogee cracked...
« on: June 15, 2007, 01:27:52 PM »
Has anyone ever had an issue with the Apogee cracking?  I keep my stuff in the house away from extremes...kinda upset since I only had about 20 or so games on it.  Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen.  I know its not uncommon to have a ball crack, but this is my first columbia ball to do so....

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 issue could be, that if your finger tips stick up, and the track flares too close. If this occurs, the grip will put pressure on the wall and cause the hole to start cracking and it will look more like a dent at first. This has happend twice and the second time we figured out what was happening. Hope this helps bud.
