I think a Pyramid is probably a bang for your buck, judging from the prices. Never thrown a Pyramid before, but they seem decent. Doesn't hurt to keep your options open
I asked my house pro about Pyramid. Of course, he's trying to sell balls and can't sell Pyramid, but he's also a pretty honest guy. His take is that they're cheap balls and he wouldn't waste his money.Originally Posted by MiggityMatt

A lot of people that have thrown them have said good things. Everyone's a start up once. If it's at a good price and has the cover RG/Dif your looking for I say why not try it out?
Well played sir, well played.
I would like to have another 14# option and the wife needs a new ball. Getting 2 for the price of one (high end ball) is tempting. I'll let you guys know if I decide to do it.

I wonder what the "story' is with Pyramid? It would be interesting to see how all the companies are inter-connected. I'm sure they all have some level of connection…like the guy that started up one company and moved to start another. Or a guy working at one decided to try his/her luck and start their own, etc…
The problem with Pyramid is for a new, unheard of company like that…ya really need to get out there and have your product everywhere and get your "story" out. I had to look around to 3 other online bowling forums just to get a vague idea of who owns and may make Pyramid bowling balls.
The GOOD thing about them is that the actual people who have used them…it's not SUPER positive…but it's not negative by any means. And for an infant company…as long as you can keep there from being too negative a vibe while you work through the kinks; thats a win.

They are Bowlingball.com's house brand. Keith Spears, owner of BowlingBall.com is who makes Pyramid bowling balls.
The rumor is they are poured overseas, though one of the newest ones I heard might be poured here.

See….I found that out online…and suddenly all the advertisements and the tab on the website…suddenly it made more sense.
I wonder why they decided to get into the manufacturing side? The ball business doesn't seem like a very easy one to bust into.
