Title: Doom Success
Post by: bigdawgwill44 on March 13, 2008, 04:13:30 PM

Well this was the first night to throw my doom at league and wow was i impressed. I went pin above ring finger to give it more of a snap look. Shot my first 600 series (i have only been bowling in a league for 3 months!). Shot a 190-235-242 with a 7-10 split in that last game. The ball was great, just throw it right and it will come back hard. also, noticed if i didn't get it to the right enough, it would hold the line and smash the strike pocket. Also, on weak pocket hits, pins would wiggle all over and i ended up with a strike almost every time. In all i am thankful i went with the Doom and not the BW pearl.

Great bowling! The Doom is a great ball. I'm not looking forward to this thing being discontinued.

Great bowling.  I think Matt's right, though.  It's been in the line for a LONG time.  It could be getting discontinued before next August.

Great shooting bud.  The DOOM does carry light hit's really good.

I think I might have to get 2 dooms before they go out, one Pin axis, for a shot that I need it on and one drilled up to open up a house shot.  They are a really fantastic piece.

Maybe we'll get lucky and whatever they replace it with is the same cover same core, just a different color and name. I doubt it...but I guess I can keep my fingers crossed.

I would like the see them keep the DOOM around and discontinue a different ball like the BWP instead.

I will buy a couple DOOM's if it's discontinued.  One of my favorite bowling balls ever!

I love my doom. Haven't thrown it in awhile though. Might take it out to league next Friday. That thing has amazing carry for light pocket hits.
