Title: Sharp Blade....still impressive
Post by: LuckyLefty on February 06, 2008, 02:30:42 AM
Took this smooth powerful bad boy out yesterday and I remembered.....

I
Liked it!  (http://"http://www.ballreviews.com/Reviews/Reviews.asp?ManufacterID=18&BallID=473")

This ball fits now right in between my Icon....(rounded smooth and lumbering) and my Icon 2 which is a little too long and sharp at the back on a medium heavy oil pattern on wood.

Good push but plenty of smooth strong backend hit and carry!

Sweet.

REgards,

PS this ball is sort of UGLY....also!
PPS very similar to a pretty good performing and also UGLY  WOW pearl which dooes well on this pattern also!

I still have and use a sharp blade. It is pretty strong aand I only take it out for "heavy oil". I still have and use an Ego every week. 2 really good balls. I keep wanting to buy new balls, but I am getting a really good look with my Ego and a Sonic X. I've been using these 2 pretty much exclusively over the last couple of months. Hard to justify a new purchase when there is so much dry locally. The new stuff would be counter productive.

Why does everyone laugh when I bowl?

I have this ball and love it...I'm new to the forum and my 1st post.  It is my primary/only ball.  I've been using it 1 night per week for a few years now.  Since I've gotten the ball my avg has gone up to a 180.  I need to get a 2nd ball now.  For dryer situations.  I am thinking of the Toxic or the BW Pearl???  I like the long and sharp in ball.  any suggestions???  

My sharp blade is drilled with pin 1" right of ring finger and go zone in my palm area.  If I said that right???  who knows???  My only complaint is this ball leaves alot of single pins...7 and 10

How can you tell when this ball starts to wear out???  I wasnt really good about keeping it clean in the begining.  The ball still reacts the same as the day I got it.  I just leave some weird splits and doubles when I hit the pocket.  Is there something I can do to revive it???
