Title: Before You Buy! :)
Post by: justink on April 07, 2006, 04:07:25 AM
I know Laybzz74 has said this many times I just wanted to second it.

Before you get a new Legends or Lane Masters ball. Call Galen at Legends and explain to him your style and what not. He will give you the best place to start. Also don't be afraid to ask him any questions. I think number 1 should be "What was this ball made to do and what would be the best drilling for me to get the best reaction from this ball?" He is the expert on the Legends / LM balls; is very open and easy to talk to. His number is 1-888-526-3645, just ask for Galen.

Keep in mind that he has not seen you throw the ball and this is the best place to start. Nothing can replace a proshop guy watching you throw and actually knowing your style.

Just don't get tricked into drilling a ball for something it wasn't made to do. Like I did with my NS2, now I am going to get a weight hole soon and hopefully get the ball to work alittle better for me and the way it was meant to.

Don't get the TOPIC wrong I love Legends and Lane Masters and awould recommend them to anyone looking for a great ball. Just want you all to make well informed decisions. Enjoy.

Good information.  Thanks.

Yes, there is enough oil and no, the ball is not rolling-out.
Is that your answer to everything in life?

Read my profile and you'll see why I can honestly say this.
People that lack common sense get on my nerves.

Justin,
 GREAT post !!! I just wanted to add something ... Galen will better be able to help you IF you can provide critical info about yourself,your style, the conditions that you normally roll on, AND most important ... the info that will REALLY help (if you have been video taped and evaluated, is your:
- PAP
- ball speed
- revs off your hand
- axis tilt and
- axis rotation

Good luck, roomies !!!
