Liberator- a limited release?
« on: January 25, 2008, 09:13:41 AM »
Well, is it? I read somewhere on here; "hurry and get one before they're all gone."

Oh Steven, Steven, Steven.....I don't rely on a core to make the ball move and the pins dance.  I use my skills and shell prep (90% of ball reaction)to get the job done.  However, if you feel that you need a certain core shape to be successful, by all means go for it.


90% are you joking, suprised you even spend money on anyting more then 3 peice pancake blocks then, there are pleny of those with reactive shells on them

I paid 153$ shipped to my door.Will drill it myself(have been drilling my own for 8 yrs).I had a black pure hammer that I avg.226 in one of my leagues with.I made alot of money with that ball.I plan on paying this ball off real fast with side pots.The hammer was the only ball I could carry with on those old wood lanes.Real pissed off when it got stolen out of my truck.So the amount of a ball is compared to how much you can make with it.153$ is alot to pay for any ball much less a urethane one,but I believe it will be a good investment!

I just cant see paying $240 for a urethane ball...i dont care who make it lol


You can almost get two of them for that price.
You've been given some bad information.

Here in Denmark 240 dollars will get you a Tropical Storm or Power Groove.. Let's say a High Performance ball, like a BuzzBomb or Total NV, you'd have to dig out around 380-400 dollars..
And competitive bowlers like myself will have no problems paying that much for a urethane ball if we can use it in our arsenal..

Back off monkeyboy!  I am not going to get into a long drawn-out posting battle with you Lane#1 lovers.  You like em, roll em!  I am not paying that kind of dough for a urethane ball and judging by other posters on this thread, I am not the only one that feels that way.  Good day, sirs!


Dude you are the one that said shell was 90% I am not gonna get into the price debate that is for each individual to decide, I was just pointing out an asinine statement, let me punch a ball and lets see how that 90% plays out

Did I flame you on your stance of price?  If so show me.  I made my comments based upon a ridiculous statement of reaction being 90% of cover and skill

on edit  you may want to go read the Big B forums again, the only time I stir the pot in there (which is quite rarely, is to clarify someones idiotic stance.  over the years (9 to be exact) I have been a healthy contributor to each and every one of these forums

Yeah, I get it.
But don't you think it might be better to treat some of these people a little better in the hopes that they will see us as "the good guys"?
I would like nothing better than to see some of these guys ask questions, get answers, then try a Lane #1 ball. Instead, we seem to have a knack for pizzing people off. By doing that, we are just giving them another reason to become a "basher".

I post in here fairly regularly.
If the constant flaming continiues, I will be on my way out. I do not want to be associated with some of these guys...you know the saying "guilty by association"...right? I like the gear, I like the customer service, but I cannot stand the "fan-boys".

I agree nova, unfortunatly cool rockin daddy took my words the wrong way, I never questioned his distaste for the price, I have always said that is a private individul decision on what one is willing to pay.  My  beef here is once again the ridiculous statement of 90% from covder

LOL. cool rockin daddy is getting bent out of shape for unfairly being attacked by mean and heartless "Lane#1 Lovers". He conveniently forgets one of his opening remarks in this thread:

 
quote:

After a little questioning, he reveals he has no Lane#1 experience, and he doesn't seem to appreciate or understand the performance differences between pancake weight blocks and real 2-piece cores.

Novawagonmaster, the daddy is trolling. Calling him on the carpet should not be considered 'flaming' -- it's an attempt to keep him honest.

I just haven't found these things work for me at all.

Any urethanes I have tried on today's conditions.

I have better luck with old rubber balls I have taken off the shelf.

One they let me take home and drill and it works great on our local shot on weekends.

On this shot when I tried lane 1's XXL it was bending smooth and hooking a LOT...all the way down the lane....and didn't have much hit left.

Condition.....wet heads...dry midlane....sloppy backends!

REgards,

Steven,
Trolling or not, I knew exactly what was going to follow your post when you asked him if he had ever tried a Lane #1 ball before.

For the sake of the sane people who like to use Lane #1, I suggest you take your own advice. Read your signature. You have to learn when to leave things alone.

I don't know the guy you are arguing with. I don't agree with everything he has said. But I am definitely taking his side because he has made his point and was willing to walk away. You guys just like to keep poking with your stick until you get people wound up, and then you beat your point into the ground. If I worked for Lane #1, I would be sending you guys e-mails on a daily basis telling you to "Cool it!", because you are not doing a bit of good for the company you claim to adore.
