I have a friend who bowls in college and is sponsored by Motiv. If you want I can ask him what he thinks of the Raptor.

Having the baddest ball with the biggest hook is great IF you're bowling on heavy oil! Most of us aren't so what ends up happening is the ball burns up before getting to the pins or it hooks off the lane from the minute you release it. At least that's been my experience and that's with a DV8 Marauder - I can only imagine what this ball would do.

Of course they are gonna make it sound great, they want your cash. Would you buy the ball if the ad said "buy our ball, even though it does exactly the same thing as another ball from another company, buy hey we need the money."

Exactly! no company will ever show anything but strike after strike with the ball! No company will ever even think about saying that other company's are even in the same league with them! it would be bad marketing!

I will probably get one for tournaments and sport shots as I normally do not see enough oil to throw my Raptor Attack which is a pearl

If they showed a video of the ball leaving the 10 pin over and over, would anyone buy it? "Here, buy the new Super Nitro Destructomatic Special Edition, you will throw a bunch of splits with it!" Don't think that's going to get it done.

Lol. I actualy do something similar. I posted on another thread how my Virtual Gravity leaves 7's and 10's a lot. So when I got to practice, if I want to work on spares I throw that ball all game. It gives me a lot of oppertunity to take down that 10!
