Title: Just got a Doom
Post by: themagician on August 07, 2006, 02:11:42 PM
Well due to unfortunate circumstances I lost all of my old equipment. Now for the story

I goto Peoria, IL today to get a new ball, I bring along my buddies ball that he was letting me borrow. I bowled a game with Tim Pallai watching me and with him watching he helped me choose a ball. The ball I got is a Raw Hammer Doom.

We drilled it up and I got to use it for two games. The ball had a very strong move and was angular on the shot I used it on. The pattern was a 3-1 (oil ratio) pattern for practice for the sport leaguers, well I got to bowl on it. The ball was clean through the heads, revved up and took off and really hit well, kept the pins low and carried. The ball was a great suprise for me as it was fit great (THANKS TIM PALLAI) and really did what I wanted out of it.

I'll update with the Pin to PAP and such specs and a real review once I start using it more.

Well guys thats about all, and by the way the hammer dooms are great, I'm seriously thinking of adding a dulled up a bit Pain to go above my Doom for a great 1-2 punch, but we shall see.

One cracked, two were stolen , but I'm taking hte bad and making it good, got a coach lined up to help me in these few weeks before our fall leagues and High School Bowling team start and get a fresh start with new stuff. But the Doom seems like a real winner, but i'll have to see at my local center on the easier patterns what happens and really review it.

Great choice for a new ball.  The Doom has unbelievable carry.

The carry for it was great and the recovery made my agent that I had look like a spare ball, seriously just how my style is and everything Tim Pallai really matched me up with a really good ball.
