Bowling Is Alive!

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.

Comment by johnnie jackson on August 25, 2008 at 8:12am: when speaking of favorite ball of all times the criteria should be the ball thats most consistant for a wide variety of conditions and i would say thats a tie between the Storm Tour Power,and the Ebonite Original V2 Sanded. Pure roll and consistancy.

Comment by jeff himes on July 29, 2008 at 7:11pm: This will go back a little bit. My favorite was the Columbia cuda/c, but that was when I grabbed the you know what out of the ball. Now would be the doom.....I look at my game as before having a flat spot and after......

Comment by Kyle Miller on July 28, 2008 at 2:04pm: Amen Kenny but I dont know about all that rolling early or late I just know I could play the gutter or get in deep with a Blue Hammer and win.I had one waxed and scuffed.Of course we are taliking about a whole different game then. I am one of these guys that beleives resin truly hurt the game of bowling.I guess I am too old school.

Comment by Bill Taylor on July 27, 2008 at 3:19pm: My favorite ball... Storm Too Hot. Anyone that knows me, knows my Too Hot. I was just asked about parting with it last Thursday. It is still my ultimate 'go to' ball.

Matter of fact, a month ago I won a $1500 'No-Tap' doubles tournament, shooting 863. 35 of 36 'strikes', 80% were natural. It was the 1st time I'd used it, in a year. Also, I rolled my 1st 300 with it, 'pot' bowling.

If it ever cracks, I will stop bowling...

...Just kidding!!! Next time I'm bowling, trust me, it's in my bag.

Comment by Kenny Taylor on July 26, 2008 at 12:04pm: Currently my favorite ball is the Epic Saga by Roto Grip. It always turns the corner, hits hard and is predictable. right now it is "old reliable".

Comment by Donique on July 23, 2008 at 7:14pm: Storm Diablo because it smells good. :)

Comment by Dennis Killough on July 22, 2008 at 7:56pm: When I was bowling regionals my favorite was the Doom. It worked well on most patterns. Since last July my moneymaker has been the Storm Special Agent. That one has worked on everything for me.

Comment by Kenny Taylor on July 21, 2008 at 11:36pm: My favorite ball was also the Blue Hammer. As Kyle says it was a great moneymaker. it was stronger than the Black Hammer but didn't roll as early as the Burgandy. A perfect compliment to the yellow dot.

Comment by Kyle Miller on July 16, 2008 at 10:55am: Blue Hammer.I judge a balls greatness by how much money it wins me.

Comment by Jeff Butler on July 15, 2008 at 6:18pm: My favorite ball would probably be the Storm Tour Power. All that ball did was strike for me. A current ball that is my favorite would probably be the Kinetic. Josh Harper throws this ball a lot as well and he is my idol!!
