ok By What the from Tucson, AZ
Reviewed on: 7/25/2009 Unverified Pros:Great Weight, Lots of hitting power, Attractive Design Cons:Inconsistent hook pattern Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley, Tournaments Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:No, I would not recommend this to a friend This ball is high on power but low on consistent hook. If you get near the pocket it will destroy the pins, but 3 out of 10 shots will likely not move as much and you will end up with a split. Was this review helpful to you?
