I still see a (very) few people throwing theirs...HIGHLY polished tho...seems to be nice and "arcy"....personally orange is my favorite color so it caught my attention haha

I have the opportunity to pick one up at a half descent price and i was curious if i should drill it or put it with my display bowling balls to look pretty

I've had both the KI and liked them. The solid is very much an arc in hook shape. It burns up in dry and overskids in oil. It was a good ball to blend out a fresh wet dry house shot. The Ki pearl was a better ball. Very useful on medium to short fresh patterns or a second shift. Truly great carry.

I had the pearl KI and loved that ball!  I did see a drop in performance rather quickly with the ball but I didn't know of HOT WATER BATHS at that point.  I'm sure the performance of the ball would come right back with a hot water bath.
