Toxic
« on: March 20, 2008, 02:41:45 AM »
All I have to say is wow...  When I first got it I was having issues with it...then after advice from here.  I sanded it to 4000.  Now....

This ball rocks.  It's very predictable and controlable.  I used it from start to finish in last nights league.  I am not used to a ball that I dont have to adapt to all night.  I kept trying to move, when I didnt need to.  I should have found my mark and stood there all night.  I ended up bowling my 2nd 600 series ever last night (both this year 1st with Toxic)....and I was trying to make it hard on myself.  The ball did exactly what it was supposed to do.  If I ever get a new ball it will prob be the Anger.  Just for the extreme heavy stuff.  Other than that.  I'm thinking that I really only need this ball.  Thanks all for the suggestions and comments.  Believe it or not they really do help!

I'm thinking I might take that new chick from Logistics. If things go well I might be showing her my O-face. "Oh... Oh... Oh!" You know what I'm talkin' about. "Oh!"

IMO, the Toxic is a real diamond in the rough, better than the Doom. Some folks hate the ball, others love it ! Just something that is either perfect for you or not. Nice shooting !

I really think it was all in the resurfacing.  At first I was really struggling with the ball.  Now its like I cant throw it wrong....  And if it wasnt the ugliest ball on the market...prob more people would own it..lol...

Thanks az

The TOXIC was very condition specific for me.  In box condition the ball was very hard to control.  I had a better reaction when I took the polish off but still didn't really like the ball.  I eventually got rid of the ball.

I did have some good success with this ball on certain patterns but for the most part it just didn't match up well with me.  For me the DOOM was a much better ball.
