Oldest ball you have that you STILL use?
« on: November 20, 2008, 04:38:35 AM »
There's been alot of posts lately about how many balls one buys a year, etc.  Granted I've bought some new ones this year, but I have 5 others that I still have a great use for. The "oldest" one I still use is a Track Mean Machine.  It was released 7/06.

As you can imagine bowling with wrong hand is going not so well but I sure look darn good doing it, being the biggest 900 global pimp in the area.

My spare ball is an old hard Columbia Blue Dot. It belonged to my son when he was 13 years old. He is now 43 so I guess that makes my old BD 30 years old. Been redrilled a couple of times, but still goes straight as a stick!

Oldest ball I still use is my Rhino Pro Copper X on my league that puts a very light wall shot up.  It's the only ball I can keep from hooking too much, which works pretty well- I shot 808 this year already with it.
