Great first finger tip ball By Bowling MaiTai from Seattle
Reviewed on: 3/26/2011 Verified Reviewer Pros:Great Weight, Attractive Design, Colors are nice, Responds well Best Uses:Upgrade, Local Bowling Alley Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I have casually bowled for many years since I was a kid, but I just recently decided that I wanted to "get into bowling" as a true sport. I knew I needed to upgrade my ball because I wanted to learn to put a hook on the ball. This is a great first ball. So far I have bowled probably 30 games with it and my average - after I learned how to roll a fingertip - has gone up easily 30 pins and I rolled my best game ever at 172. I look forward to getting consistent with this ball and just picked up a Columbia White Dot for my spare ball because I now am having problems flatting this ball since I have learned to hook it. It will do what its supposed to do, if you the bowler does what you are supposed to do. Has decent back end reaction. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a good ball for a decent price.

WOW is all I can say By Karen D. from Cody, WY
Reviewed on: 5/2/2011 Verified Reviewer Pros:Great Weight, Comfortable Grip, Attractive Design Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley, Tournaments Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I am a league bowler and have about a 150 avg. My old Hammer Black Widow just finally got tired so I tried this Columbia Freeze. WOW is it nice. The first day I was just messing around with it to get the feel and scores were all over the place. But I did notice that it plays thru the pins way better when I slowed down. The second day, my doubles partner and I practiced for state so we were bowling kinda seriously. I slowed down and bowled a 213, 195, 160 with little effort. I only left about 4 open frames in the 3 games. That is very good for me as I typically have trouble picking up spares. But the stikes! Man o Man this thing is great. As one of the other reviewers said, if you do your job, this ball will certainly do its job. I'm right handed and throw a nice easy arc ball. My doubles partner throws a pretty straight "brooklyn" type of ball. She picked it up and it performed just fine for her also. Now she wants one. I highly recommend this ball.

great ball By The pin crusher. from moncks corner, sc
Reviewed on: 9/24/2011 Unverified Pros:Flawless Surface, Great Backend, Perfect reaction Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley, Tournaments Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I've had this ball for almost a year now. When I first had the ball drilled it hooked too much for my lanes and I couldn't figure out where to play it because the reaction was to aggressive. Once I had a weight hole put in this ball to cut down on the reaction this ball works perfectly. When this ball hits the pocket, cover your ears, it sounds like a cannon hitting the pins. With this ball I can throw it around the 17 board and out to the 4-6 board and come back to the pocket. One thing I've learned that has helped is getting a 1" forward pitch on my fingers, this way all I have to do is stay under my ball and not have to worry about putting any turn on it. So far the cover stock is really great, I haven't had to get this ball resurfaced. Very long lasting ball, reminds me of the Columbia Wicked and Full throttle. Was this review helpful to you?

Best bowl I have ever had By Nita from Missouri city,Texas
Reviewed on: 5/5/2011 Verified Reviewer Pros:Great Weight, Attractive Design, Comfortable Grip, Flawless Surface Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley, Tournaments Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I must say since I got my ball this year I have improved tremendously. My average is 130 but you can bet when I slow down and let my bowl roll she rolls. I have had quite a few 500 series since I have purchased this ball. Was this review helpful to you?

Very good ball By Matt from Melbourne, FL
Reviewed on: 3/8/2011 Verified Reviewer Pros:Great on the back end, Great Weight, Comfortable Grip, Attractive Design Best Uses:Medium oil, Local Bowling Alley, Tournaments Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I roll this ball down & in, and it has an amazing backend. It snaps incredibly fast and to the headpin if used right. It can get a good reaction if it's in the pocket. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.
