I was just recently given the Virtual Gravity by a friend. I have been using the 2Fast and it has been working well. I know that the Gravity has a better back end reaction and is used for heavy oil. I needed a ball like this for sport shots and tournaments because of the different patterns. I am a little unsure of how to use this ball though. Any tips?

[striker12]

well its hard to tell anyone about any tips on how to throw a ball cause that person wont know how u bowl but heres one little tip thats works good for me when u get any ball dose not matter which one it is dont try to shoot your normal line first start at the 5 board and move left 2 boards on every throw till u get a strike and when u do get a strike try that line again 2 mroe times and see how many strikes u get but also if that line is the best memories it soo u are able to shoot it again but then keep moving left try different lines to maby find a line better then that one but when u get to thye 10 board keep moving left but open up the lane soo in stead of going stregth upyou will be crossing boards use these tips and u will beable to find the line for any bowling balls and remember only 2 board move every time but also forgot to mention ifyour a lefty move right righy move left

Thanks striker. I started playing the 8 board and throwing straight through 1st and 2nd arrow. I have since tried out different angles to help improve my game. This is the only reason I accepted the VG because I learned a new shot that works better with that ball. I throw on the harder side and it is difficult to get the 2Fast to do what I want it to without slowing down ball speed. When I do that, I tend to pull the ball or flare it a lot. I will try what you suggested when I get the ball re-sized. Thanks!

a free ball is always good. I just got a 2nd ball. storm frantic. Haven't had the chance to test it out yet though. maybe a 3rd ball too? lol

[tracy]

being on ss and a pension, that sure would come in real nice. i would love a new ball right about now too.

i like anything free maybe give it to my wife for her first performance ball

[HunterRunsIt]

It might be a little too much for a first performance ball! The Defiant is a monster!

[DaveAyotte]

Has there been announcement of who the winner is yet? I've been eagerly awaiting. I was heart broke after the superbowl last night, and this would sure be a nice pick-me-up.

[HunterRunsIt]

Same here Dave.

[aed2784]

I'm not sure. Where would they post it? Would they email you?

[DaveAyotte]

I'm pretty sure they email the winner, and wait for a response before announcing.

Pobrecito :D

Not quite as grand as the 18 wins and 1 Giant loss in 2007, but I'll take it.

[DaveAyotte]

HA! I don't need your pity. Giants played well, and obviously the Pats didn't want it bad enough, otherwise they would have played like they were actually in the super bowl. So, enjoy it - they deserve it. Now I just have to wait a few more weeks until the NASCAR season starts ;)
