Go to the Dollar Store (or look on the bottom shelf of your local grocery store) and get Fabuloso.

Dilute it with water at about a 4 to 1 ratio and you will have a very good cleaner for little money.

BrunsNick is very much entertainment vs facts, but apparently he doesn't know it when saying things about layouts etc. Especially when he bashes the Rico layout in one video all the while contradicting every other word out of his mouth.  His go to answer when he can't elaborate is "its physics". That means he doesn't know. The interwebs is full of fun stuff these days.

True, rookie mistake when disagreeing not to throw insults.

WOW!!! This is truly hilarious. I've just recently watched a couple of BrunsNick videos and they are really not informative. Entertaining....YES. I find this amazing that you say he bashes the Rico layout because back in the day, he was the MAIN character who professed undying fealty to the use of that layout. It was me, reading some of his reviews on balls with that layout, that made me try it at all. And to be clear......that layout worked superbly on big differential pieces and pieces that were super early. Oh, how the times have changed. LOL.

I like to find one item I can clean my bowling balls with without using different ingredients to clean it with. I mix simple green, alcohol, and water to make one cleaning substance for my bowling balls

Not to mention more people on social media sites vs here. I believe this had a facebook page but it hasnt had activity since 2011.

Unfortunately the trolling goes into the social media as well.  Cant seem to get away from keyboard cowboys no matter what you do.  Had a situation yesterday where someone that goes by stormb28 had to troll me on the Beef and Barnzy livestream with Stu.  Had not been on there in a while and figured I would ask Stu if he thought Jakob should have gotten away from the Back Hammer when it clearly wasnt working.  Well.....here comes this guy with the comment of "Steven Vance is just as annoying on Ball Reviews as he is in here".  In the back of my mind I am asking myself where the hell did that come from.  But my response when Stu commented on his statement was that it was all good because everyone has an opinion based on what they see.  I thought my question was justified because we have seen Butturff struggle to win the past 3 years because of his reluctance to drop the urethane and pick up resin when clearly the urethane ball looked terrible.  At least try something different so you cant question yourself after youve lost.  But getting back to stormb28......seems to be one of those types of people who sits back and waits for someone to pounce on just because his opinion might be different than someone elses while laughing as he is in the process of throwing shade at somebody.  I dont get it.  Why people want to go out of their way to try and make them feel stupid in hopes they will leave and not return to a site blows my mind. 

To Stormb28......God still loves you brother!  If you get that "annoyed" when someone is just asking for a professional opinion or someone coming on here to help people out; then they are not the problem.

Wow he really hates you it would seem.  Its a good question. Im guessing most cases going out of urethane takes longer then he was willing to try because he may not have a "go to" ball change. Right handers seem to do it easier because it happens so much sooner, where often lefties may not need to and can ride urethane the full block etc.   Until you get a lefty on the lanes with the much higher rev rate chewing up the heads and then its an "oh $hit" now what moment. 

I enjoy trolling people on youtube but its usually BrunsNick, Bowling Buckosh, and the like that are lying out their teeth typically misleading people. Its fun to call them on it.  Even the PBA guys that post content that are out right wrong, but hey they are on the PBA and have a youtube channel so they must know.

Ball review videos now a days are pretty decent if watching the right ones. With no change in technology since proactive covers there is nothing new to see. Everything looks the same in reaction you just get a different name/color/logo. Maybe the other reason people have lost interest in talking on here. Most have gone away from "magic layouts" and hopefully better understand the intended purpose of layouts vs the magic/trick idea maybe.  Just guesses

Good response.  Even you and I have had disagreements on here but have done it in a respectable manner I feel.  Brunsnick is more entertaining than anything while trying to review a ball.  I like Luke Rosdahl because he is not tied to one company anymore and gives an honest assessment of what the ball is.
