2. OGRE solid
3. Big Shot
4. Total NV
5. Shift
6. G-Force Nebula
7. OGRE Pearl
8. Black Widow Pearl
9. NVS
10. Hole Pounder Solid
11. G-Force Super Nova
12. Heist
13. Angle (red & Blue)
14. LevRG
15. Twisted Fury
16. Night Hawk Pearl
17. G-Force Super Nova XP

In 2007 I gave away about 10 bowling ball (purchased in prior years). Am I the worse on here?

Lol, that's like $20,000. Assuming $200 for each ball, including drilling and whatnot.

Barry,

You know you're not allowed these competitions at every year's end.

I can't pass up homeless bowling balls.
Being retired, selling used balls, let's me stay in the game.

I believe, "Bowling Ball Addiction" known as BBA is a medical condition.

I can't say exactly how many. I just don't keep track. I'd guess 15 - 20 NIB and 5 - 10 used. Not even counting those I bought for other people.

Since I work in a pro shop and I'm always broke, my ball purchases have dwindled GREATLY this past year (go figure).

I treated myself(NIB) to:

Silver Streak
Rush
Action (x2)
Tropical Storm

None of which I paid over $45 for.  Gotta love the perks and benefits of drilling

I've read all these responses and I'm telling you guys .. you are all missing out .. the new AMF balls are going cheap and you're getting a BIG BANG for your BUCK! I'm not reluctant to try any company and I love the LevRG .. but there is no better deal out there right now that beats the HEIST and Night Hawk Pearl.

I know I have the BOWLING BALL PURCHASE sickness .. but I still look for the BEST DEALS!
