slingshot is a good ball. I use mine when the lanes get really dry.

I have a Red slingshot, that I use mainly 99 percent of the time for 10 picks only! I like the way it holds the edge, if I shoot short of the pin and miss my mark to the right, it has just enough grab to hold on and get that damn 10 pin without over reacting.

I also leaned to throw my sling shot palm up, and it roles very straight, which helps with other spares where I don't want that hook action on the end! Learning to throw palm up on the spare shooting has improved my spare game 100 percent!!

hard to argue with that haha.

now that you bring it up i might just use it as a spare/dry lane ball. This would mean how ever id need to sell my taboo spare and brunswick rhino steel as those normally fill that slot.

Anybody interested???? lol

I bought one NIB for $56.95 shipped...16lb red one. I plan on using it to replace my Frantic down the road. Eventually, after I get my mecahnics down, I plan to start using a more powerful ball (rather than throwing straight at the headpin on heavy oil)...which will relegate my Frantic to wood lane/low oil use...until the wood lanes are replaced with synthetics in May...then the Frantic will likely be retired and the Slingshot will become my spare/splits ball.

But couldn't pass on a NIB shipped Slingshot for $56.95.

Drive to Riverside man! Mike will tri-grip ya up!! What...2 hrs on the I-15?? Stop off in Temecula for some casino, or golf, or wine tasting...then up to Riverside.

Heck...you wanna smooth things over with the girlfriend...take her with ya to Riverside...get your ball drilled...on the way back stop for wine tasting and a night out dancing in Temecula...get a nice hotel room there...maybe see a show at the casino...then drive home an hour the next day!! She'll LOVE it!! She won't even mind the bowling ball and 2 hour trip to Riverside....because she'll be too happy facebook posting to all her girlfriends at how her and her awesome boyfriend are out on the town wine tasting and dancing and seeing a show. AND...you're almost guaranteed sex!! Unless her Aunt Flo is visiting....but even then....you'll get "something" out of it. :eek:

Thats a solid deal man...a new ball, tri-grip drilling, and some type of sexual activity. I know there's a price tag involved...but a new bowling ball and sex...thats about $300 on the open market...and you're getting it plus a show and some wine...for about $500 or so. And you don't get nagged...which is worth anywhere from $65-$999 depending on the severity of the nagging and the skill of the one doing the nagging. Good deal man. Good deal.

When you've been married over lets say 7-8 years...you learn how to get things you want...and limit nagging...without haveing to go to the extreme of murdering them and burying them in a shallow grave that some stupid jogger is going to happen upon and cause you to become the subject of a lifetime television network movie where you are played by Tom Skerrit.

She actually wasnt that mad. Possibly because im making an effort to downsize my arsenal so i can move up to 16lb. Little does she know im working on a deal to get a 16lb heavier oil ball right meow
