Best ball of the year?
If there were stats available (which there might be) what do you think was the best, hottest selling ball of 2017? I'd include 2018 but it's probably too soon to tell but from the trend thus far I wonder what it is. I'm not including polyester / plastic because I'm sure OTB with all their theme balls would win as well as your entry level plastics and spare balls. Keep it to just Urethane and above.
That's tough to answer. I think Bowlers Journal does an article on the best of each year. I hear a ton about EBI products in my area since quite of the pro shops have guys that are on staff. Storm is very strong in my area as well, but not as many on staff.
From EBI side locally, I would say Hammer Gauntlet was a big seller.
From Storm I saw alot of the Sure Lock and Code series balls.
