I received and drilled this ball 2 days ago (1/26/2011) and got to use it for my last night's league. This ball has an awesome design, it looks beautiful when rolling down the lanes, it displays probably the biggest hook in my league, and results are powerful pin action for every pocket shot. I am playing deep, throwing the ball across the arrows at around 20 boards (the center arrow) and making a SHARP break from anywhere between the 1 and 5 boards, and I was able to stay consistent in this area for all 3 games because it is the no-man zone as I'm the only one riding this part of the lane. First game shot in the 230s, 2nd game didn't do too well because I made a run to the snack bar and stepped on some things that caused many sliding errors on the approach (not the ball's fault), and 3rd game I threw 11 out of 12 strikes. Had the potential of a very good 700 series if it wasn't for the trip to the snack bar LoL I believe this is going to be my favorite ball for the 2011 season of bowling and I am surprised no one uses this ball at my center... too many using Jigsaw Corner.
--Update--
So I took this ball in for a 2nd set of 3 games earlier tonight on freshly laid lanes and pulled off 3 nice scores of 240, 255 and 289 for a 784 series... this time without making any trip off my lanes LoL If you are consistent with your game, this ball will definitely reward you.
