Just drilled it up for a heavy oil tournament ball and tried it out on the pattern listed above just to get a feel for what it would do. Blue collar bowler with a mindframe for what I am looking for with respect for what I bought it for. I wanted nothing but a ball to turn to when the "oh $h%t!" thought came to mind right after the first ball you throw in practice skids too far and gives the worst angle towards the pocket you could ever immagine having. What I ended up with based on my style and expectations is a ball that can be used for its directed intentions which is a predictable,no doubts, late midlane read in heavey oil with cutting edge pin carry. I got just that and even though it flares and is drilled too much for the pattern I tried it out on, I felt that the personality I expected the ball to behave with is exactly what I spent the cash and drilled it for. I've thrown hundreds of medium heavy balls throughout my career but this one is a no brainer when it comes to a hard to handle tournament shot. Just throw it it like we all know how,let the ball do the work,and it will, predictably and assertively. The Cell is on our side. Perfect match between core,cover,and predictability.All new products these days come equipped with words to hype and sell like their the next best thing since duct tape but at the end of the tournament AND PROPER LANE CONDITION MATCHUPS, results are the only thing that counts.When you're like me,strapped for cash in a crazy economy,yet still driven to be competitive in the bowling game,the Cell is something any lover of the sport could never go wrong with. If you throw a good shot, the ball will not feed you any bullcrap with overall lane read, if your shot is off, admit its you, make a better shot next frame, and be happy you got a ball that rewards you for your efforts. Well worth the $100.00 I spent to get it.
