If any ball could re-released,....
« on: April 01, 2017, 06:12:04 PM »
... what ball do you wish it could be?

I had the idea from seeing the Brunswick Danger Zone on sale on some of the bowling ball sites. Made me think about some of my favorite old bowling balls.

Can be any company. Only catch is it has to be pre-2005 (makes it more fun that way).

Mine is the ebonite Apex Adreniline. I had both that and the Apex intensity and loved both but was able to use that Adrenaline anywhere

Track: Critical Mass (original purple one)
Columbia 300: Cuda/C
AMF: Purple Angle
Storm: Lightning Store
Ebonite: Nitro Rsquared
Faball: Blue Hammer
Brunswick: Black Phantom
Star Trek: Force III (original one, not the Star Track version)
Roto-Grip: Silver Streak

That should pretty much cover it LoL

I left the game from 1991-2010...so I just missed the Nu-line Xcalibur.

from a competition strategic standpoint, if they brought back the quantam helix at a lower price point (not that anything quantam has ever been cheap), I'd be happy.  it was a good ball for me, not great.  But start off throwing a couple strikes with it and it always seems to throw competition off by how ugly it looks when it rolls.  It's like banking in a 3 pointer in pickup basketball to start a game.  it just messes with opponents heads

The top one on my list would be a Red Pulse from Columbia. A great control ball that all the Columbia guys on tour loved.

From Storm I had good luck with a Triple X factor.

From Ebonite it was a Total NV.

the 4 that come to mind

Storm Special Agent, paradigm domination, black thunder

Ebonite Big Time Pearl 

The black thunder was remade in 2006, as the Thunder Struck with reactor cover.  I would want original  cover or R2S on a remake.
