Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Was in the market for a ball that would give me more of a hook and back end reaction. My local pro recommended and drilled the Train based on my bowling style (17MPH first ball 16 - 16.5 second, maybe 2-3 board hook - on a good day). My league average is only 150 and I've been struggling to increase it. I took the train straight from the pro shop to the lane and bowled a 6 pack! 226, 218, 202 were my first 3 practice games. Took it to league last night and bowled a 183, 196, 212 and it was position night :-). If you're looking for a ball that hooks and hits the pocket like a Train then this is the ball for you. One really nice thing about this ball is it's very forgiving, 2-3 boards on either side of your mark and BAM solid strike. I've bowled 10 games with it so far and zero splits :-)

Had the pin placed under ring finger with cg kicked out a bit plus a hole. First game took a little getting used to the arc instead of the skip/flip that I was use to with the storm ball. The train reads mid-lane and make a smooth arc to the pocket. The ball does not deflect a bit it drives straight thru the pins. Love the ball.

The Train is another great product from 900 Global. This ball has great continuous backend motion; ball gets through the mid lane very well and gets down the lane as well. When coming in contact with any drill part of the lane I saw no indication of the ball losing its velocity and burning up. Just an all-around strong continuous backend motion ball that will surely continue to run 'em over.

I drilled the ball pin above bridge and cg under bridge, then to coversock to the T finish then polished it to give it more length down lane. This ball still has plenty in the backend.Buy this ball and get a free jersey just pay s&h.

When I received this ball, I wanted to be able to use the ball on my sport league and on the fresh house condition. I drilled the ball with a 4" X 3" layout and box condition. I was quite satisfied with the way the ball eased thru the front part of the lane and when it hit mid lane it really showed its strength. I then hit the ball with a T-pad and it gave me about two more feet of fade before it picked up. I am going to drill another one use the T-pad with the pin above my fingers with cg kicked out for when the front and the middle of the lanes start to go away. This is the best and most versatile ball from 900 Global I have used, a must-have for your bag…….

If you are looking for a ball that hooks the Train is defintitely the ball you are looking for. This ball hooks miles and some. Definitely look a good choice for someone with a lower rev rate that is looking for a little more reaction from their balls.
