shanon - 12 to 1. every five posts you make this week brings that down a point.
brother_jd - 8 to 1
cochese - 2 to 1 I just have a feeling! keep in mind that is basically the kiss of death for you though lol
gmjmma - 6 to 1

Good luck to everyone. This sounds like a cool ball. I am looking into getting a new ball sometime in the near future. Right now I am actually looking into either the DV8 Misfit or the Brunswick Karma Pearl. I am not sure as to which one as of yet. AZBowla is telling me to get both. I would love to be able to try out both to see which I like better, but don't know if there is a place that I could go to do that or not. Decisions decisions. Plus AZBowla is a deviant now and is trying to convert me as well. :)

The last RG ball I rolled was the Rogue Cell. It would be interesting to compare the differences. I currently roll the Brunswick Nexuss(red) and blue pearl. I love the pearl and not happy with the red Nexuss.

The DV8s are catching on quick. I am looking at that line for my next purchase. Not very happy with my Red Nexuss.

I am ready to give up on my Nexxus? I can't seem to carry corner pins at all. I use my pearl Nexxus and carry very well.

Better a Deviant than an air freshener roller. You will like the Misfit, comes in several different color combos and is a good ball to learn to throw a hook with. Also, glows under the black lights if you like to bowl then.

FYI, you can post more than three sentences in a post. If this is just an attempt to win the ball, shame on you.
What 's your problem with the Nexxus (red)? Which DV8 ball are you interested in?

I have been on this earth 65 years and have never won a contest yet that I have entered. I want to see if I can keep that string going by trying to win something here.
The Chicago Cubs have me beat in that department. The have gone I think 104 years without winning a world series. I am following in their footsteps. LOL.

Hey guys, I just drilled my Shatter that I won about 3 or 4 weeks ago. I know why'd it take so long. Well, I wanted to try a dual layout and kept reading various authors about what the layout should be. Thursday, I jumped in, layer the ball out, and had my driller drill yesterday morning while I was coaching the kids. Went in to get the ball and the only adjustment it needed before I threw it was to open the thumb up a bit. Well, Let me tell you, if you want a ball that goes long and snaps like a freight train, this is a ball you will like. Started with the first 5 and shot 238 and 223 the first 2 games. Third game I played around with various angles and didn't break deuce, but that was ok because I wanted to see it's limitations.
By the way, I was shooting the second arrow (dropping on about 15) and swinging to the right of 5. If I missed to the right it still came back. The drilling I used was a 4x4x2 with a weight hole. The ball came in at 15.3 oz (before drilling) with 3.22oz of top weight. Looking forward to using in league this Thursday. So if you have a chance to win this ball you won't be disappointed.
