I won one with probably about 150 posts. It does seem like a lot of people win early on, and if you don't it takes quite awhile.
I've been very lucky here. I won a ball after being on here for only about 2 months and then I won another ball in the Pyramid giveaway over Christmas. By the way the wife loves the Pyramid ball she's finally getting to use it now that's she back to bowling right handed.

I have sorta wondered this myself...but agree w/ most above and say just post to things that interest you and have fun. Put the contests as much out of your mind as you can, that's when you'll probably win!
(for the record, I haven't won yet and I have a very low post count!)

It seems like a lot of ball review posts are cross-posted from Bowlingball.com, I'm wondering if one of those "members" has ever won? I know that some of the reviewers do post them up and check back (like Christina Hardee on Aslan's questions) but it seems some are automatic.
I'm not aware of any of them winning but I don't really keep track so take that with a grain of salt....Originally Posted by mc_runner

I joined in April last year and won an IQ Tour Fusion in the middle of June -- just a few days before my birthday. I don't remember what my post count was, though. I was posting quite a bit then...
hope that I can win with a low number of posts.
I'll probably never win, I'm not well spoken so I don't post often, More of a read and learn kinda person. I will ask questions as I need to. But other than that, Not real chatty.
I won a ball after about 2-3 weeks after signing up. I don't post very often.
