What was the first BRAND NEW ball you ever bought for yourself??

Just curious. Mine was an AMF Ultra Angle. I think I was 14 or 15 at the time.

What was yours?

A 14. lbs. Blue/Green Sparkle Target Zone, conventional drilling.

My first fingertip ball came shortly thereafter, a 14 lbs. Power Groove Plum Pearl Proactive, about 3 years ago.
