    I've seen you guys bowl down there before, and I'm fairly certain I've seen her. She does throw it pretty slow, and you're right, she isn't too bad.

    All spare balls are not equal. Mine is better but no longer being used. It's a 14 pound Storm Blue Ice. You've seen the videos!

    Ben, have you seen the hook I can get with that spare ball? A guy at the alley has a championship belt for plastic ball series. I've tried but can't get him to bowl me plastic vs. plastic.

    For the most part the are basically the same. Some balls like the Columbia Blue Dot and the Pld Storm Spare Storm had a harger surface (durometer reading) and therefore went straighter than a standard plastic ball on friction. My Mptiv Sniper has a verymilar reaction to the old Spare Storm
    Still love the game but had to quit because of my left leg amptation
