I find this all extremely humorous. For years all the manufacturers have heard was you wish there were comparative videos out there showing one companies ball against another's. We put together a very scientific based test eliminating as many variables as possible and all we are getting is grief and now personal attacks. What joy it is to spend time on Ball Reviews.
Instead of saying its a step in the right direction, we get blasted.
Well we are going to do more videos and we will continue to show the comparisons.
For those that got their butts hurt, sorry.
C'mon now, Phil. You are usually pretty reasonable.
You know from common sense and your own experience here and on other sites that you are ALWAYS going to get 3 classes of people:
- those who who will never agree with you.
- those who will always agree with you
- and the vast middle ground who, if we like what we see, will tell you how we feel and if we don't like will tell that and why.
This was a large reasonably (for bowling) (very good) scientific test reducing the number of variables by a large margin (very good) . It had a large number of various brands (very good); could have been more and better, but the possibilities did have to be somewhat limited. The types and models of balls were relatively recent (very good). There was a small bit of advertising but that is also reasonable (some other manufacturers would have made much more of this type of test than you did). Heck, they would have had a whole drum and bugle corps with exploding fireworks. Kudos to Phil & Radical.
(Aside: I wish my ball speed and the amount of oil I see would allow me to use some of the more powerful Radical balls, but my "strongest" Radical is a Times UP Pearl. Wish they would make some lighter oil balls for the rev dominant, like yours truly.)
