What brand ball was it and did you like it? Was it able to work with your style of bowling? Did you give it as a gift to someone?

Marauder Madness! It works with my style and love it! I bowled a 240 today with it. 240 is my best score ever now, although it is non sanctioned.

Brunswick Nexxus. Worked well but cracked two weeks ago in the middle of a game. Roto-Grip Berzerk that I never drilled. I gave it to a kid who needed a medium oil ball for school. The pro shop then gave me a DV8 Marauder for doing so. All he charged me was for drilling, IT, grips, etc came to $48 with tax.

That 240 might be non-sanctioned but it is still a 240. Congrats on a great score. It still took a good effort to get it. Nobody just came up to you and said here, have a 240 game.

Thanks Hammer. I have been having wrist pain after my league Monday night. I have ordered a wrist support from bowlingball.com but it hasn't got here yet. I stopped and bought a cheap wrist brace at a rite aid before bowling. After I got used to it I found how much it helped when I rolled that 240.

726,727 I won a neXXXus and drilled it pin up between fingers. Practiced with it yesterday on a somewhat fresh oil(Was told cover oil,no cleaning of lanes,just oil)and it was a very nice rolling ball. Will try it Wed in leagues and on 1/7/13 when Sport leagues resume.

I won a Storm Fire Road. Sadly, the ball and I did not get along. I didn't like the reaction, and I hated the smell.

RoccoRock- you think your ball did not work for you because the layout wasn't right for you or maybe the balls core or alley oil you were bowling on wasn't right for the ball to work for your style?

It was probably the layout. I don't know much about layouts, so I trust my driller. He did not seemed thrilled with the fact I brought in a blank to be drilled. I told him I won it, but I don't know if he believed me. Plus I had him drill it for two handed, which he was trying to get me out of. Not saying he sabotaged me, but I do think I will be buying a ball somewhere else when I am looking for a new ball soon.

I've been around longer, so.. Rogue Cell, Elite Insanity and a Nexxus f(P+R). I got the most use out of the Cell; the others work great but I don't see the conditions for their best use very often. Especially with the Nexxus I have to move so far out of my comfort zone I keep thinking I'm going to dump it in the gutter.

I just noticed it said 2012. Only the Nexxus, then. ;)
