Upon further research, it looks like OTB ball is pretty similar to the Bandit. Hook potential is the same, just a different coverstock style and finish. Suggested lane path is almost exactly the same too! If I won, I'd probably have to drill it extreme or something.... =p

Anyways, good luck to you, striker12 and to everyone else too! ;)

Wow, winning in general would be an awesome feeling, but winning your first week....

I wonder what the statistics on winning a ball are... the number of people who have won once, twice, more than twice, or never won at all and their respective number of posts for those who won when they won..

I won the Nexxus my first week. Had 67 posts that week. Not sure how they have managed to not draw any of my posts again.

The reason is because that week the you had 800+ posts, was my 1st week with about 5 posts, and you know, 1st weeker's posts are weighted 200:1 vs "old timers" posts.

I have a small list of the winners most all of the winners had been on here less than 3 months and won. only one user has won more than once.

There is one guy that won, hes only made two posts ever. His post that won only had 2 words in it and it was the only post he made the week of the contest.

His winning post was " anyone? Thanks"

I was looking at some of the old threads and I noticed a guy that has only ever posted once and won. :p I guess that shows anybody has a chance!
Also noticed that the threads are slowly getting lengthier and lengthier, which probably means the boards are getting bigger, which also must be another good sign.

On a side note, I saw a thread where the winner posted a picture of himself with his ball. I thought that was pretty nice. It would be awesome if all winners did that, bowlingboards hall of winners. It'd be a nice little tradition. :cool:

kurowah that dose not sound like a bad idea i would get a picture of my self with my HHR but i want the HHR all cleaned up and looking good i think it ran out of gas from going down the lane so many times lol

Have been using Brunswick equipment for 15+ years but I'm ready to experiment with another brand. My Daughter bowled for Florida State and they were sponsored by Roto Grip and she really likes their equipment, so I guess it's time for Dad to try one out. Here's hoping !

Wow striker.....You've got more balls now than I've had in the last 20 years, and I used to manage a bowling center and get balls at who sale cost ! Soooooo, how do you determine which ones to bring???

striker12
09-03-2012, 10:37 PM
well is kinda easy i alway take 6 to the bowling allie 2 agressive balls my HHR and my the nuts then i bring my kinetic pearl then i bring 2 balls for dryer lanes 1 polished and 1 dull my too reckelss(drilled weak) and my freeze(dull) then i bring the plastic ball, once nad awhile i would bring a 7th ball but never know when that it i jsut have a feeling to bring it and its my hammer hawg(polished) works great for medium oil and getting down the lane is ncie with a hard snap on the backend.

i am planning on relacing the kinetic pearl with the frantic cause the kinetic pearl is alittle to short of a span for my hand but im able to throw it.

but on the 20th im planning on getting more bowling balls to finish my set with all new stuff i have not picked what brand i want to bowl with but i want to bowl with all ebfore i do soo my next 3 bowling balls are the critcal theory-ebonite mission x and the nexxxus the frantic is going to be in there but its going to be a swap out ball soo it dose not get including into the 3.

when i go to get new stuff i see what i need cause my 2 most agressive balls are HHR pin down and the nuts pin up.

but i seem to work better with pin down balls cause the ntus skids down the lane abit to much but atm having a problm with it, it feels like a 16lb ball and i cant get my hand under it and when i do get my hand under it, it makes my thumb go num, and its a 14lb ball and non of this happens with any of my other 14lb or 15lb balls.
