Only took a couple days to get it shipped, but the waiting from that point was killing him lol
    I've never had that problem with my pro shop. Their distributor can have your ball of choice available inside of a week, usually. Every ball I've ordered from them has come in early.

    rvdriver, I really like the Melee Cross. I used it for the first time in league play, and shot 675. I drilled it pin up with the CG kicked 2 inches to the right of the center of my span. With the solid coverstock and 500/2000 Siaair finish, the ball handles the 44 foot oil pattern we use in league well. It reads the midlane well, then has a strong continuous hook without jumping left like someone kicked it.
    The ball motion is similar to my DV8 Marauder Mutiny that I have drilled pin down and the CG in the center of my span, but the Melee flares more and handles heavier oil. The Brunswick rep I know said that if the Cross reads too early for you, have your pro shop hit it with some polish. This will make the ball go longer before hooking.

    I really like the looks of the Melee cross -- and, for some reason, I'm not a Brunswick fan -- but I really like the look of that ball on the lane.

    Well as I finally got my IQ Nano delivered I am going to get it drilled along with the Rocket. So I'll have a few new weapons. Not sure how often I'll be able to sue the nano though as our THS isn't all to oily but sometimes they do over do it. Also during summer I may join a sport league again. Very excited about the rocket though!
    In my bag: Roto Grip UFO, Roto Grip Hyper Cell Fused and Roto Grip Hustle hyb
