lol yeah but remember to keep in mind 1 thing if your going to start a arrsenal its good to have 2 different brands this year im going with track but have not decided the other brand yet. last year i went DV8 and 900 global but did not like my 900 global ball that much it was going down the lane to far before it made a move.

I just dont like looking like an idiot asking a bunch of dumb questions lol im 25 and just picked bowling back up after about 12 years because my girlfriend wanted to join a league with our friends and I forgot how much I love to bowl lol back when I got my ball hammer was the best of the best and there wasn't so much to choose from lol now its confusing and there are different cores and so many companies and balls for specific needs its almost overwhelming lol but thank you for taking the time to help it is greatly appreciated

as fishhawk said don't worry about the questions that's but makes someone get better at bowling is question about something they do not now i have asked a lot of questions on here and also asked alot of quest's to my pro shop operator and he helps me out with anything i ask if it a price on something but i don't just get a price for 1 ball i ask about a few and i remember the prices and then think of the balls later and watch some videos and see how the ball works then i decide if this ball will work good for me or not.

on the forums here no question is a dumb question.

As an ambidextrous bowler, I need to pick two. Right-handed my favorite is still the Hammer Black Widow that I bought used 4 years ago. I also have a Storm VG Nano that carries better but is a little harder to control. I can get the Black Widow to hit the pocket on all but the driest of lane conditions.

Left-handed my favorite is is a Storm HyRoad.

There are a few im looking at and would like to buy and was wondering if anyone has used them and what you guys thought, i just like the way they look lol the DV8 brutal nightmare, Motive 2cruel, and a guy a bowl with swears by the global freight train, I also really like the epidemic but i dont think they sell it anymore

well i have only thrown one of those and thats the motiv 2cruel its a very long ball with a big backend move but if you ever played on fresh heavy oil this ball would slid down alittle to much even thought its a skid/snap it still dose go to long and sometimes dose not hook in enough but a better motiv ball to look at is the "motiv raptor talon" great ball has a early hook so you dont have to worry about it not hooking but it dose not have as strong of a backend as the 2cruel.


well the brutal nightmare hard to say anything about that ball but my brother has the nightmare and i brother got it drilled pin up right above ring finger about 1inch and my brother throwns medium speed with medium rev with a off the side release, off the side release means his hands comes uop the side of the ball and it revs 90 deg from the angle its traveling. and he likes it sometimes when it will hook and other it wont but because of me createing more revs then him and having a different tilt i can make the nightmare hook on any angle i throw it.

I miss when it was simple and you could just buy a ball because you liked the way it looked lol I definitely need to find out ny ball speed and revs and stuff so I can get what will work best for me
