Which one looks the coolest!!!! What ball knocks your socks off in regards to LOOKS!! I like that Freight Train that my wife is getting, and like my Maurader Madness how it looks going down the lane!! You can really see the REV's and ball motion!! I am talking how it looks rolling, and Just how it looks sitting on your fireplace mantle!!

Easy! This one is super sexy, but not very practical. I guess looks aren't everything....

HOW DARE YOU!!! STALE beer?!?!?! Never! That clubhouse only had the finest in beer and fried chicken as our team was torn apart and made a mockery of itself!

I'd gladly take a sledgehammer to that.

Bitter and broken are no ways to get through life! hahahaha.
Plus, you don't have to worry about us Sox fans. We're the self loathing type... You HAVE to be to stick with this team. The coroner wouldn't list them as my Grandfather's official cause of death, but we all know better!

Sox fans are lets just say "spirited". I just wish they wouldn't come all the way over here and invade my Angels home when we play. I guess it doesn't bother me that bad. I can't understand half of their cursing with the Boston accent. Lol

We're wicked nuts! hahahaha.
Back on topic: I guess I don't care about ball look or ball smell (wait a minute... careful!). But going from the Hammer No Mercy (completely black except for the white pin) to the Lane 1 Droid, it's kind of weird actually seeing all the rotation on the ball as it travels down the lane.

Just a few I like for looks or on a display shelf. I can picture them all in a nice glass case. A guy can dream. It would need a sign that says NOT TO BE USED AT THE BOWLING ALLEY. LOL. Rest well my babies. Daddy loves you all. Then I woke up and found that I had been dreaming. DOH!

I love the Marauder Madness as it goes down the lane. Each ball you can definitely tell the revs buy how the colors look. It actually helps me understand how I am rolling it, and how the lanes are by being able to see the break so much easier.

No, it's made by a company called Lane #1. It's a smaller brand, but it seems pretty well respected. They're a company out of Syracuse, NY, and apparently they aren't the most pro-shop friendly brand, so it's hard to find anywhere but bowlingball.com.
The league I bowl in has a lot of Northeastern guys (I'm from New Jersey, lived in Connecticut, have family in Massachusetts) so I was lucky to bowl with the Droid a time or two before I bought it. FWIW, when I brought it into the pro shop to get it drilled, the guy was impressed and said Lane #1 makes a great ball. He also said he has a helluva time ordering them, so if I have a good source and I want the Sawz (for a while their brand was almost exclusively named after saws) to use them and he will be happy to drill them for me, and throw it a couple times if I want him too (last part was a joke).
I like it because it's different. I did have some luck throwing my buddies ball, so I had an idea of how it would react for me. But I also like having a ball that not everyone else has. I'm glad everyone likes DV8 on here, but that kind of makes me not want one. I like being a little different.

I have been trying not to get in on this one because I just got myself a DV8 Terror for Christmas two weeks ago. If I had to get a new ball today it would be the Hammer Nail Smoke and Fire. I was gonna go with a spare ball, but I figure I could pick 10 pins better with this than my Storm Frantic and it would be effective when the lanes are fried. Plus it is one sexy looking ball.

Interesting, the Primal Scream, the Droid, and the Disturbed all have almost the same colors. The shades of green may be a little different, and the patterm, but basicly they are all black and green. Never seen the Primal Scream or Droid go down the lane, but it probably looks a lot like the Disturbed.

Track's 811C/T looks great going down the lane too. Come to think of it, so does the 503T.

You can tell he's a serious bowler because he uses a plastic ball with a red rose core. It strikes fear into all his opponents.
