    15 LB Columbia Messenger Ti...looking back I realize how that ball didn't match up with the lanes I was on at all and it probably set me back two years.

    Cool thread idea. Don't know how I didn't see it earlier. My first ball was a 10lb Ebonite Tornado.

    I think my first ball I got when I became serious about bowling was a fingertip Columbia yellow dot plastic ball. It was red I remember.

    First was a Brunswick ball from KMart. Then a few years later when I was maybe 15 got a Black Rhino from the pro-shop. The way they fitted me was they had a ball filled with numbered holes and you put your thumb in the center hold and move your fingers from hole to hole until you find the right fit! A swiss cheese ball I think they called it.

    The first ball I ever owned was a new Storm Tropical Storm! This was back in the day of when they were "High Score Products". The original purple tropical with the yellow labels. That was a sweet ball!

    My first ball was a Reckless,
    but technically I have been using my Dad's Green Hammer before the Reckless,
    Yes I called it Green because it is no longer blue. lol
