Messenger Ti Light Weight... what is all the hype?
« on: November 07, 2004, 09:25:19 AM »
I mean, this is a 12lb ball... and everybody is going crazy over it... WHY???

Am I missing something? Is this ball really that good? There's a guy in one of my leagues who is actually carrying the highest average ever in our association which is 256. He raves about how this ball carries!

SERIOUSLY!

He says that the great thing about this ball and why so many people love it is because of it's weight! Since it doesn't weigh that much, you can actually hit the 6-10 pocket and the ball will actually deflect to the left and make it's way across and hit each pin with the ball itself. I've actually seen this phenomenon in person.

I've got me one ordered from BuddiesProShop right now and should be here soon.

Will let you know how it goes when I get it drilled!

Stay tuned...


Thanks!

You gotta start at the beginning!  My stomach hurts from laughing.  I scared one of my dogs, who started barking, the other three started barking too, waking up my wife, she was none to pleased!!!

The best one is the one clemson posted:

i like ball
ball roll good
ball go straight then ball move
ball is round
that help ball roll
if ball was square, it would not be ball
ball sink in water
this make me ANGRY!
ball should float like rubber duck
maybe i should try rubber ball
ball also break bat!
recommend not hit ball with bat
ball heavier than similar ball with holes
good ball though, buy!

finally got my 10lber yesterday, dont know how I'm gonna drill it though, it has a 6" pin and 8oz. of top weight. I'll drill the holes almost through the ball to try to tame this hook monster. Will update this weekend after leagues...
