Title: Bowling Staffing Question...
Post by: Zanatos1914 on August 01, 2013, 12:17:36 PM
If you became a staff member which bowling staff organization would you like to become a member and only use their equipment....

Storm/Roto mainly because my last 2 pieces were from their family and both have worked great for me.

other choice would be Hammer, always have my Blue Vibe with me. old trusty works when nothing else does

 Anyone.

 Really wouldn't matter who. Everyone puts out good stuff these days, and the better bowlers will still win, REGARDLESS of what is in their hands.

  If you win, it isn't about the equipment, it is because you performed better than your opponent at that time.

 And don't really expect me to believe ANYBODY here that doesn't already have a staff position would turn down ANY company that offered them one.

 DON'T EVEN TRY TO SAY YOU WOULD!

I can tell you with 100% certainty, I would not take a staff position with Ebonite or Jet.

I think everyone is making good stuff anymore.  Over the years Ebonite is the only company that didn't make much I liked.  This was compounded by the short life of the shells on their solids.  Made a lot of money with Brunswick stuff, but they lost their way after the Vapor Zone, until the last couple of years.  Haven't tried the newest stuff, but the Nexxus line and the Versa Max, Maxxed Out were very good balls.

All things considered it would be hard not to go with Storm.  If you can't find two or three balls to cover your needs in their line, you aren't trying.

First choice would be 900/AMF, then Utah, then Seismic, then DV8. No to everyone else.

Why?  Just curious...

Storm/Roto Grip would be my first choice, but if a company wanted to throw free equipment my way and be exclusive, I'd be open to any of them.

Storm/Roto Grip would be my first choice, especially Roto Grip.  My best games/series have been using their equipment and have found their lines to be versatile.

Then my next choice would probably be Track, as I have done ok with their stuff (the 505T was a great match for me, 919C was good on tournament patterns but more condition specific than I wanted).   

After that, I would potentially look at Columbia 300 or Brunswick, as I had success with their stuff in the past.

However, if any company threw me free equipment, I'd seriously look at them.

Probably either Hammer or Columbia 300 if I had my choice. Brunswick and then probably Track after that.

Wouldn't turn anyone down obviously but I tend to like to be different so Storm/Rotogrip would actually be fairly far down the list.
