Well I'd say 8 (9 if you count the one that is "retired for good").  The Fuel will never see tha lanes again, its my homemade trophy.  Started to die out (and forn some hairlines around the finger grips) towards the spring of 2006, probably the one ball I wish I could get my hands on a new 15lb version.

Lets see:

Hammer  Purple reactive (circa 1995)
Hammer  3D offset Super Hook
Hammer  4D HPT
Gem Tek  Ten Star  (Sapphire Gumdrop center)
Eureka Urethane Industries   Blue Tank
Roto Grip  Epic Battle
Roto Grip  SD-73 Classic
Lane #1   Pearl Cobalt Bomb

and then there is this one...

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one

This guy on youtube posts videos of the PBA
for ppl who dont watch TV or want to save the matches this will be great!
