How for pretty much every ball, there are reviews on here or other sites that talk about how the ball hits like at truck.  Or how the ball can go through the heads clean and turn on a dime and destroy the rack.  Or how the ball strikes so well, etc.  This is ridiculous.  

And for videos, I see different balls from different brands from cheap to expensive doing the same thing: going out and hooking in and one strike after another.  What ball doesn't strike?  That is the question.  Most of these videos are editted and all thrown by different bowlers.  So you have different rev's, axis tilt, etc.  You have different pin placement.  Pin placement?  There are videos with pins everywhere and they all do the same thing (with very minor changes in breakpoint and roll and backend).  

In conclusion:  ball reviews need to be less biased (i.e. man X-company created the best ball ever) and have more exact specs, exact bowling style, exact boards, exact lane conditions.  Totally ridiculous!  And videos need to have consistent bowlers.  The only videos I see that are any value with a real bowler is from Brunsnick.com.  These other ones are just worthless.  I saw some 13-year old bowling video with a Storm Passion saying he averages 224.  I see the video and I can count the revs and he does nothing but strike.  What a joke!  

Videos need to be made with a robot thrower or with more consistent bowlers and exact rev's etc.

I'm done.
