I've had this ball for about 2 weeks now and all I can say is this Monster needs OIL!!!! If there isn't oil then the ball will burn up and use its energy quickly. I throw 17-20mph depending on lane conditions with 350-400 revs.  I have to stand 10 boards left of center throw over 13 out to bout 8 and this ball comes back beautiful.  If there is a lot of oil i just move right.

Positives: Needs OIL, biggest hooking ball I've had to date, when it hits it hits HARD.

Negatives: Burns up quickly if no oil, could of used a different drilling to make ball more versatile but ball still fits the bill for me.

Got this ball in early November and this ball has increased my average from 176 to 188.  I throw the ball really fast and found this ball I can swing out unlike my other balls I go down and in.  My ball I got is 15lbs with top weight of 2.5 and a pin of 2-3.  I use to average in the 200's a few years ago but did not bowl for 5 years so of course my average dropped.  I hope to keep getting better with the ball as I use it more and increase my average.

On my THS, this ball just does not stop coming. I have played it from 20-10, 15-5 and straight down 10. It just keeps hitting hard.

 

I traded my Track 916AT for this, got the thumb plug, left it at box and this may be the best ball I have owned in 40+ years of bowling.

 

Don't let the color fool you: It looks cool going down the lane.
