I need a favorite spare ball
« on: February 11, 2008, 04:23:11 AM »
Just got a BWS and would love to get the Widow spare ball...if it wasn't just so butt-ugly. White Dot? Plastic Zone?

Whats your favorite spare ball?

My favorite spare ball is the one that picks up the spares.  I picked up a white dot that is pink and some other color.  The only reason bought it is because it was $50 drilled and out the door.

i really like my CAL clear golf ball, but i am looking at one of the brunswick TZONE plastic balls.  but really, if it goes straight and doesn't hook, its a spare ball.

Columbia Momentum! Gets super clean through the heads and just coasts to the pin you are shooting at. And unlike any plastic ball out there, it can hook when you miss right and even throw strikes!!! lol

Ice Storm, hardest ball on the market. Same hardness as the OLD Blue Dot.

Vote #2 for the Ice Storm.  My average has gone up 10 pins since I added it to my arsenal.

Plus it looks cool.  When I feel like dropping some extra cash, I'm gonna have to replace my old ugly Maxim with an Ice Storm someday...

I mix and match my spare ball. Use yellow and white dots, also use an Ebonite zebra 4 and a 50 year old Black Diamond (hard rubber and won't hook unless your my younger brother who hooked it off of 14 to 5 and back for 790 in league). I can through all of them straight and I like confusing my friends. They can't stand me changing all the time.

I personally like the looks of my spiral viz-a-ball, but if i were to get a new one i'd get the ice storm due to the fact it is the hardestball.

And my spiral tends to hook just enough that it can get frustrating.
