What is your favorite bowling ball of all time?

Which ball do you wish you still had or never want to let go of? I believe everyone has had a ball that was drilled perfect, came off their hands the right way, average increased, you name it. I personally had a Orange Pirahna that I loved. It would hold when I tug it (as always). And it would come off the ditch back to the pocket when I threw it out. Unfortunately, my ball got chewed up in the machines at AMF Union City. I opted to replace it for some strange reason with a Critical Mass. I don't remember the manufacturer for either ball but I can say I made a "critical mess" by not getting another Pirahna. Let's see which manufacturer wins this conversation. (Storm, Ebonite, Morich, Hammer, Track, Columbia, etc.) Let me know of your favorite ball.

I shot my only 800 with a Black U-Dot from Columbia (the 10th in Lansing Michigan Bowling History). My favorite ball though was the Green Power Torq also a Columbia ball. In the day you couldn't beat a Yellow Dot, especially a bleeder. It is a shame that bowling balls have to become extinct. It would be great to be able to still purchase one of the old classics we loved.

MY FOVORITE BALL OF ALL TIME HAS TO BE THE TROBO X BY EBONITE. NOT ONLY DID I ROLE A FEW HONOR SCORES WITH IT BUT IT WAS THEMOST CONSISTANT BALL I EVER OWNED I USED AND RESERFICED IT SOME MANY TIME THE SERIAL NUMBERS WHERE GONE.

My favorite ball would probably be my Black Widow Solid with the Lane #1 Pearl Cherry Bomb coming in a close second. The first set I shot with the widow was my first 800. Ive also shot 2 300's and 2 290's. I brought the cherry bomb used for 25 bucks and the first week I had it, I shot back to back 750's and my first 300.

My favorite is ths Ebonite Overtime. I am on my third one. When this one is gone, I won't know what to do. lol

The original Inferno by Brunswick...fit like a glove, played the whole lane on any condition, the "Old Faithful" of the bowling arsenal. Since the ball cracked in half in sub-zero weather, the new "Old Faithful" is the Ultra Zone by Brunswick.

Back in the day, you couldn't get better with a classic Black Hammer!!!

I have several favorites. The Ebonite Puma classic was great. The Track Mutant ranks high on list, i have 4 300's and 4 800's with that ball alone along with acouple ABA titles on it. The columbia Cuda 2000 was phenominal in my opinion. Most recently my go to ball is my Hammer Purple Vibe.

My favorite would be the Original Ebonite Puma, I have several honor scores with it.

My favorite would have to be my trusty original Cuda C....was a great THS ball.........a close second for the old A,B,C,D patterns would have to be the Tour Power

Black widow.. hands down. Bowled 2 honor scores with it so far.

Favorite ball would actually be a tie between the Storm Tour Power and the Ebonite Original V2 Sanded. Both balls were just incredible in regards to surface adjustments ( polished or sanded ) and just were most consistant on a variety of patterns. Not just house shots. Bill Taylor I still want that Too Hot. Please.
