    Heck, If I can get consistent strikes, I would use one while wearing pink tights and singing broadway show tunes....not sure if my wife would sit with me though...

    Sure I'd throw a Diva and not think twice about it shoot
    I'd even be willing to throw a pink and purple polka dot
    ball just as long as it gave me good striking results and
    high scores.

    To me the way a ball looks or the color of it isn't all that
    important now what is important to me is the results I get
    with it out there on the lanes.

    I throw a DV8 Misfit... the pearl neon yellow. It looks like a house ball on steroids. For the first 3 weeks SO MANY people would make comments about how ugly that ball is and try to talk smack about it. Since I've got it and we have consistently been beating all those teams the smack has stopped. Moral of the story... Just throw a damn good ball and then rub it in their face that its a "girly" or "ugly" ball. Puts a smile on my face when I beat the smack talkers.

    After watching a few of the women throw it last night, I kind of want one. One woman was throwing a 15mph backup ball that had an extremely strong hook and was carrying. She's been using it for two weeks now and she just had the best week I've seen her throw. She had to be bowling consistently 40+ pins above her average. It was devastating to her opponents.

    Hey I have a yellow and green Frantic, and two of the guys on my team have old pink spare balls, so I agree as long as it does what you need it to, who cares what color it is.

    The only thing that I care about is that it is just a bowling ball. It doesn't matter what it is called. Your going by what the ball does and don't care what it is called. If it works for ya I wouldn't care if it was called Minnie Mouse.

    When I go looking for a bowling ball, I pick out a bunch that seem to do what I would like them to do. After that, I get the opinion of the pro shop guy on those balls and use his input to further narrow my selection. After that, I choose the one that I think looks the best. I like bowling balls that are in plain, usually dark, colors. On the other hand, I am not picky at all about free equipment, so if someone were to give me the bowling ball, I'd have no problem using it. Considering that this has been the method by which I've gotten most of my bowling balls, it's quite likely that at some point I will get an ugly one.
