On Tuesday I bowled a 190, 180, 199 for a 200 bowler this stinks so this ball stinks...buuuut on Wednesday I bowled a 220, 230, 240 so now its good...buuuut on Thursday I bowled a 150, 250, 150 so the ball only worked on the second game so its now only ok, I ate french fries during the first game so that may be the reason for the 150, just a guess.  I'll try again next week and if I bowl good again than this ball is good, if I bowl good only on Wednesdays then I will only use it on Wednesdays because that is when the ball is good.  I'll let you know after Friday if this ball is any good for practice, I throw most of my strikes during practice you know.  This ball hooks when I throw it very slow and with alot of side rotation and it goes very straight when I throw a straight release so this is a VERY versatile ball, I could use it on any condition.  On a flood I'll just throw it very very slow with no thumb and on dry I'll use my thumb release.

This ball is very good because when I hit my target and release it well, I often hit the pocket and carry, but when I miss I get over under so this ball is not very forgiving.  This ball is very good on a wall shot because I could still hit the pocket even when I miss my target which means this ball is good.

Good ball, if I continue practicing and bowling well in my Sunday "300/800 every week" league, I will invest $500 on myself and take a crack at the pro's in the ABC Masters.  Maybe I'll even quit my job and follow the PBA around the country, hey anyone can win right?

If I am not a success or win a title in a month, I'll just practice more and join more leagues, all I need is a 200 average in league to get a PBA card and we all know how hard it is to average 200 today in league.  Look for my name in lights baby, I'm gonna be a star.  I'll be so rich I will hire Bill Gates to wash my car, yeah!
