Gotta be Lane 1.

Hands down the best customer service.

There balls roll true and consistant.

And with the addition of the Chainsaw line, they offer a very competitive complete line up.

From what standpoint?

Customer service?
Technology?
Ball selection?
New products/releases?

Each one has their good and bad points that vary from year to year..

This year, Roto and Storm seem to be dominating the PBA for whatever reason..
 


This is the correct answer. Everyone will have an opinion of who "they like."

I don't think you could technically say there's a "BEST" because they all have their strong suites.  You could only say one matches up better than others....

There is nothing to be gained from a single list.  Some of us have been around long enough to have done quite well (and had good service from) companies not even on that list...and also long enough to have seen some of the companies we might have viewed as among the best change hands...

I still like some of the stuff I have in Roto Star boxes (some even NIB)...and the original Track equipment was some of the truest rolling stuff out there (something that the yutes of today were not even around to have seen).

And those of us that bowled in the 80's probably loved Faball (the Nail made me a small ton of money in a few year span of time).

The point here is that there are far too many categories and eras to be looked at in making a single company assessment and labeling them as best...
