Zero.....Ziltch.....Nada.... I picked up a AZO Tactics in the fire sale, and people are asking alot about it, but they have never even heard of AZO.... let alone Legends -- Lanemasters, the pro shop is not even very up on them, I took in the flyers and he hadn't heard of the Yeah Baby and New standard.   People try to buy the ball off me every week, for the way it rolls and the way it looks, it sure is a purdy ball, but that's all the action they have in my area, when I get some extra cash, who knows about that, I want to try more, I love the Tactics particle.

Since making my last entry .. I ordered and had the NS delivered.

Bowled one game in one of my league with not the BEST results. Took it with me on Thurs league (light/dry) and the conditions were not right but got a feel for the ball. It definitely is not a ball you can throw from outside .. it has to be inside/out. It has a tremendous hit when reaching the pins. Much better then any ball I've used to date including the AMF and LANE1 products. Prefer using an outside line .. but I'll adjust for this .. expecting BIG THINGS with the right condition!

For our area we have done a few and found the Yeah Baby a better fit for most all. The new standard is a strong ball and would be best served in a experienced hand. That is not saying don't buy one but at least know your game or have plenty of oil. This ball turns the corner very sharp for such a strong cover. YB is a bit more versatile but still is plenty ball for most. I am very entrigued by this line of balls and will look forward to new releases.

LOL, same here. Except no one around here has even heard of smaller companies. All they know is storm, ebonite, and brunswick. Im like "yea this is a visionary" and everyones like "oh....is it like a crappy little ball company or something? Never heard of it".

There are more than you think E-Strong.  I have been using their stuff for some time now.  Since I have started using them I have convinced three other friends to give them a try.  I have owned the Fatman, Littleboy, Drastic, and Answer.  I Soon will have the New Standard and Guaranteed (Christmas).  My friends tried the Ultima's (Pearl and Solid) and the Answer.  And one of them is purchasing the Guaranteed and another is considering the New Standard.  Madison Bowl pro shop is experimenting with them also, and has already drilled a few for customers.

I have yet to see one on the rack around my area. execpt for mine of course. I was looking to get a hexplosion but the driller is a staff guy and I can't help but try new balls. so I went against my all track grain and picked up a Big Kahuna.


I will put up a review once I get it broke in and the surface tweeked. all I can say right now is that the hitting power is worth the price and that alone separartes them from companies like enbonite and colombia, were there midline balls are actually better that there high end balls.

Once I get my head out of my rear end and bowl, I can see racking up some real big scores. my league house is known for corners and you seldom see a messanger. Until now! Once I actually start hitting the pocket look out!

Hell's Bells, it looks like Tommy can't give them away. I saw the Yeah Baby! there for $169 drilled!! Bizarre. (Although it may be related to the $25 discount directly from Legends, til Dec 31st.)

I am the only one in my area to throw a Legends ball, I have the Satisfaxion and love it.  I am hoping to get the Yeah Baby to go with it soon.  The satisfaxion is an awesome ball, it shreds the rack like no other
