None.  They just don't roll right for me and only last for 60 games.

Nitro/R2. With the exception of the Big Time Sanded, everything else has just been a pretender!

This will pretty much be a list to see who and who hasn't thrown a V2 Sanded.

I guess this isn't the thread for you then eh?

V2 Sanded was a good one for me.  I haven't had a chance to throw a lot of Ebonite stuff though.  Always wanted to try The One though.

Ebonite Tiger.

Jeff Carter set the (then) ABC (now) USBC high average with this ball. I saw the ball on display at Reno in 2001. Jeff averaged over 261 for a minimum 66 game season to break the old record (I think it was 251+) held by Mike Scroggins.

That year I averaged 235 for a full 99 game season, my personal best.

The ball cost me $85.00 drilled up if I remember correctly!

I'm a youngun, I really loved my original ONE, til it died. I used it esclusively for a season and a half or so before it started going south, but it was an excellent ball in my hand.
