Who makes the best bowling balls

Just looking for some opinions. If you could only bowl with one company, who would you choose and why?

I've tried quite a few balls from different companies lately and have found ones that I match up to in most of them.  I can't say that I have found a 'bad' company.  But, the only company I have tried many balls from is Visionary, so I will choose them over the others.  Excellent quality control and customer service.  Accurate descriptions - they will let you know up-front if a ball is for a specific niche.

If I could choose a company, it would be Storm. I'm sure other companies would work well, but Storm works well for me so therefore I have no desire to try other companies. As long as Storm puts out new balls, then I am not curious to try new stuff of other companies.

Dunno. I've not used equipment from all the manufacturers.

Legends/Lanemasters

For me its about the consistancy ive seen, as well as the fact that they use 11lbs of grade A resin in every ball.  No filler = MUCH less ball death.

They r also the only company i know of that makes their stuff by hand(according to a source)

It would be a toss up between:

1st choice: Lanemaster/Legends
2nd choice: Hammer
3rd choice: Storm
4th choice: Lane #1
5th choice: Brunswick

I liked Ebonite back in the "8 Ball" days.
I sold a lot of TNVs, and One series balls last year, along with Hammer balls.

As long as money is no object,I'd have to say Legends/Lanemasters for the amount of resin they use with no filler and they're Kosher for Passover

best ball for an individual can be much different than highest quality ball.  Lanemasters probably makes the highest quality ball since they don't use fillers, and only the finest ingredients.  However, that doesn't mean they are the best balls on the lane, although I personally believe they are.
