    Maybe mention to the driller she needs something not very aggressive. Although it would be funny to see the shock of a ball going left to right without her knowing it would break that much.

    Explain to her that the "hook monster" may look pretty but she would rather have this "cute and cuddly hook bunny". I don't think many bowlers walk into the pro shop knowing the hook differences in balls and it should be the pro shops duty to steer them into something that will fit them.

    haha yea i think shell be content with a slingshot or a tropical storm. On a side note, there is a senior league that starts just after my sunday night league and im pretty sure one of them uses a lucid for straight bowling. Hes actually pretty good at it so more power to him.

    Wow that is like buying a an 18 wheeler for your daily drive car. I hope he won it as that has to be the most expensive straight ball I have ever heard of. My buddy just got a Lucid last week, seems like a great ball and he definitely has alot of confidence with it. It looks great going down the lane.

    Guy on my team bought one just for league. Hes already a great bowler as it is with an average of 225 and gets close to a 300 every week but its still just a fun league. I guess if youve got money to blow like that then why not. This last monday a guy on the other team used a hammer epidemic as a spare ball which i found pretty odd
