SOS - HELP MY BOWLING COMPANY!!!!!!!
« on: September 12, 2005, 01:15:42 PM »
Hey guys, i got this assignment for my Graphics Class where i have to make my own fake company and market it, etc.  I had to choose what my company would make, so it only seemed right to go with bowling balls.  I had to choose a name for the company, and settled with Alien: Dare to Defy.  I know it's not that great, and it's a rip off of the elite alien, but i don't care, it's the best i can come up with............ So what im asking for is that you, the bowlers, help give me some names that i can give to my balls and what condition they be used on, once again i know it's quite corny, but hey, better bowling than anything else   Space themes would be cool seeing in how the company is Alien If you take this seriously it WILL BE TURNED INTO A WEB SITE AND YOU CAN SEE SOME OF YOUR IDEAS COME TO LIFE - once again thanks

How about: Invasion
           Encounter
           Roswell
           Sighting

Okay that's all I got!

booooo.



if it were real it would be really hard to fit "Alien Nation" onto the ball in larger print, it just sounds better as Alien

note: i like my idea for the reality and fantasy balls could have a solid and a pearl......... hmm..........

How about a ball called the Quasar, .....i think that's a space term

We all know brunswick had the quantums, but i don't recall a quasar!

Here is what I think:

  Mercury- Shiny pearl reactive. Medium R.G. and low differential. For dry to light mediums. Medium R.G. to get it through the heads clean and low diff to keep the flare down when the shot is shorter or drier. ( Similar to the Track desert heat)

  Gemini- Pearl reactive. Medium R.G. and med/high differential. For medium/longer patterns and some carrydown. Pearl cover helps get through the heads while the medium R.G. promotes a good roll pattern and the larger differential creates more track flare to help create more motion on the backends.( Similar to the Inferno)

  Apollo- Solid reactive. Same specs as the Gemini but stronger, solid cover for more oil. ( Similar to the Track Arsenal reactive )


  The space theme lends itself well to the naming themes. There were MANY space programs and satellites that could be used for other balls

Doesn't it feel good to know that your on the right TRACK?
