Xtreme Damage
« on: September 09, 2011, 08:51:42 AM »
Is anyone still using this ball?  If so, how is the ball performing after 50+ games? 


You will not see me on the PBA Tour, but I love the game!!!

Still have it, and won't get rid of it.  It's usually my No2 ball out of my bag.  On heavier lane conditions, I will generally start with My Widow Maker or my Terminator.  By game 2, it's time for the XD.  And, it doesn't disapoint.

 

My first ball with it is always a STRIKE.  The ball fits well, and I know exactly what it will do on spent conditions.  It ignores carrydown and finishes strong every time.  Gives me confidence to change.

 

It's my regular ball on a House Shot which is my second league, different house.  So, it has become lane and house specific.

 

Gotta have 200+ games on it.  After each 60-70, I touch it up, 320-500-800.  Then, some LM polish, which it really doesn't need, but I like the shine.

I still have it, I guess 60 + games, had it slightly polished, for med - drier conditions.  The pin action is great, I get many strikes when missing the head pin. The angularity is the best in the Lanemaster line, sharp turn to the pocket.  I have mine drilled pin above ring finger, so there's length with snap.  I have three honor scores, should have a few more. 

 

So far, no loss or disappointment with this ball.
