Thread: If you could only have one ball what would it be?

    The Fusion does have a low rg, however Storm balls under 14 lbs. use generic light bulb cores with high rg's, so the Fusion should be fine for a slower speed bowler using it under 14 lbs.

    That's kind of what I was thinking, too. The 12# version *should* go longer than the 15# model, making it OK for a slower delivery.

We'll just have to see how the bursitis and back hold out...


    The Misfit doesn't have a generic core. My mistake.

    It still hit like poo in my opinion.

    Looking forward to hearing how the Misfit and Fusion work for you.


    Sorry about your back. I deal with physical limitations as well but I think Stormed1 takes the cake.

    Well... you would know what it hits like, since you've thrown it. I bet, though, that different balls perform differently for different people -- otherwise, there wouldn't need to be so many different balls on the market. I'm holding out hope that the Misfit is a good ball for me. I'll be sure to let you know...

    The back and shoulder are what they are. My hope is that "easier throwing" will help the bod. I also hope to avoid injury thereby.

    Hmmm... That's the IQ, except it's a hybrid.

    Eruption Pro. Even though I just picked it up & only have a few games on it, it's versatile and arc-y, so it's quickly becoming my benchmark ball

    Have a lot of guys on my leagues throwing the fusion and mastermind genius both great balls. One of the kids from the pro shop at one of the lanes I visit threw a three hundred next to me today.

    Haven't seen the Optimus in person yet but bet there will be quite a few this fall
