Do you own a plastic ball?
« on: December 04, 2006, 07:08:20 AM »
And use it?

I'm not talking about a "performance" plastic ball... or a ball that you use when they get really dry.  But a Maxim or White Dot or Vis-a-ball for shooting spares.  And a ball with a label drill, no leverage weighted (if that's even possible with a pancake weightblock) layouts.

If so, what do you got?

Got a "glow-in-the-dark" white dot a few years back.  It is a swirled gree/yellow/red color mix that changes to fuschia/blus/pink under the blacklights.

  Quit cosmic bowling right after I got it, but I still use it for spares at times.  

  Sort of looks like that swirled up vortex strong/R in the regular light.

My pink Target Zone is a basic label drill and is the same span as my other equipment. I use the vacu system on it also....

A blue pearl Target Zone, drilled label and fingertip, only for spares. Almost 3 years and still running well, with some polish every now and then to keep it from truning the corner despite my full roller spare release and broken-back wrist.

Pink Maxim. It's pretty and sparkly. I use it for most spares on the right hand side.

15# "Globe" Viz-a-Ball, which I use for spares normally.

16# Blue Sparkle Maxim, which I use at the Petersen, and not exclusively for spares, either.

I have a White Dot that is only used on the 6, 9 or 10 pins. It is getting tracked up and is starting to hook too much. If I can release it so it "thumps" over the thumb hole, I always hit the 10 pin.

I have one ball drilled label. It is a BVP Rampage I bought to go under my Vapor Zone. It is still too strong.
