Used my Black Widow today for the first time in my league
« on: January 06, 2007, 08:10:59 AM »
Today was the first day in my league that I used my Black Widow and OMG this ball is amazing. I shot a 217, 221 and a 201. I was kinda missing my mark every once in awile by dropping my shoulder and pulling the ball, but I hit the pocket about 85% - 90% of the time and only left one or two ten pins, but I missed one of those ten pins which is kinda rare for me cause I rarely miss a single pin spare.

Great shooting bud.  So was it worth waiting for this ball?

Is yours a backend monster?  I drilled mine up and used it for the first time last night as well.  Mine is so tame and controllable and I love it.  I was afraid the back end would kill me, but the ball is all about arc for me.  Perfect piece for my game and I might buy 11 more

When I got to throw one of these at a Hammer demo locally they were all pin above bridge with the MB in the strong position.  Very flippy in my hand on their THS.  With the pin closer to the bowler's PAP and grip line a BW grabs earlier and becomes a hard arcing piece...

Mine moves pretty hard towards the backend. Today the outside of the lane were really dry and if I would get the ball out anywhere outside of about the 3rd or 4th board the ball would go through the nose. I even got a strike today by hitting the head pin dead center. Bottom line... I love this ball!
