Title: Big One... POLISHED!
Post by: BrooklynSlop on September 22, 2006, 01:04:45 PM
I was going to sell my Big One, but today I put a nice hot double coat of brunswick factory finish polish on it and WOW! It now not only fits in my arsenal, but it has moved up my list of go-to balls. Great hit, great carry, and much more versatile. Glad I did it.

I believe a polished Big One is the best in the One series. Big One is the least sensitive of all the One series balls

Based on my experience, I've owned The One and Big One, thrown at least 3 other One's and two other Big One's and also an Infinite One, all with different drillings.... I have to completely agree with DanR's opinion here. Polished Big One is money. Mine is drilled Pin Under Bridge, CG under Ring, MB in strong position, weight hole.

I personally thought The One was too squirty and unpredictable (was better at about 1000 abralon), and I found the Infinite One to hit like a turd. I'm thinking that cover adjustments are just necessary with this line of balls.

For the average bowler the high grit surface is a pain to maintain and noticeable differences when you get cover wear. Like the series just not the prep for most league bowlers.
