Does anyone know if......
« on: August 30, 2003, 08:26:55 AM »
....are Bonanza balls legal to use during sanctioned competition? I am not sure, but a friend of mine recently got one and is very curious to find out.

My understanding on Bonanza balls are that they have more serious defects than just the usual blems.  I would weigh it out to make sure. I would probably do that anyway because you may have no idea what it is after you have punched it.  If the CG is missed marked who knows.

I would think it would be legal as long as after drilling it weights out o.k..
As long as its not a Ebonite Quasar or a Brunswick spiderweb ball.
Those aren't legal to begin with.
free agency it is until i get a better offer.   LMAO

CG was mismarked on this one.

Here is the question though......we know who makes Bonanza Balls, but are Bonanzas themselves on the approved list?

Cool,

I guess I'm not the only one here with a
Bonanza Special Blue Ball (aka Mutant Blem)!!!

I got one too,it hooks more than my regular Mutant.
Ooppps,well,it should,gee wiz this blem has a 3" or 4"
pin.My Regular one(aka Track,NOT Bonanza) has a 2".

That probably explains the hook difference(aka my bad!!).

Both balls are drilled the same/simaliar,I think?
Why did I type that!

BOTTOM LINE___________________________!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyways I like it!!

How come they dont have a REVIEW on Blems?

IJHTTTIKTHMROTTCSOTBRFBTWILOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was a good abbreviation too!

I'm about to join a league and I wanna use my bonanza too!

Moral ta post:I hope its legal,HOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!

L8 peeps!

Bonzanas save you important dollars,and can still talk down pins!!!!!
