Last week my BWG came back with a flat spot about 1" in diameter. Almost looks like somebody just zapped it with a grinder real quick. Barely able to feel it but it is there. It is just below the thumbhole real close to my track. I can't see the track so not sure it is actually rolling over it. Have not been able to see any oil on this ball ever. Even the new Rhino Black Pearl, no oil or track marks at all. And last week my ball was covered with belt marks. Looked like it was 5 years old when the night was over.
Damn dude, you have the worst luck with bowling balls LOL Do your lanes use AMF or Brunswick pinsetters? I can tell you that they are completely different animals all together. Much more mechanical than ours and I probably wouldn't know how to turn one on. I can ask the mechanic today what could have caused it for you though.Originally Posted by boatman37

Arsenal consists of mainly 15# Motiv balls, I have several now and they are the bomb! Too many to list and carry. Still have a couple Hammer balls and my AMF RPM Swirl (old reliable) & 25+yr old Linds worth a mention
Currently 535+ Rev Rate @ 19 MPH (This probably needs to be updated, I think I've toned each down a click or two these days. I'm letting the ball do more of the work as I get older.)
Everything around says AMF so I assume AMF?
Yes Boatman, generally if it says AMF then it's AMF. In most cases the rake or sweep whichever you want to call it say AMF unless they covered it with something else. Qubeca is another name you will see which goes hand and hand with AMF but seems to go along with the scorers but I believe they are part of AMF. I could be wrong.

Yep. I have pics of the scoreboard and it says Qubica AMF.
Then no bout a doubt it, it's an AMF house.
