Any Bowlers in here??

Yea im still waiting to choose.. Although most balls can be drilled to work the same im still in a debate
Ebonite Infinity one, Elite Alien, or Storm Paradigm ( Which is supposed to be (arromatherapy scent ) But fruity pebbles is ok too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I just want something thats gonna have a slight curve down the alley and then snap hard in the backend..
just got a infinite one before league started, has a good back end, got mine drilled to go long with the mb about 2 inches from my thumb hole, also have the one which i use its also a pretty good ball, you will not be disappointed with the infinite one....

i'm avg a 184 right now, high set 687 still seeking that first 700 high game is 278

 
i think you'd be better off asking your local proshop(if you trust them) then us, only because we can't see your style of bowling so we wouldn't really be able to recommend a ball that would fit that...

also the biggest thing i would say about buying a new ball, don't buy into the prices of balls. My mid-oil ball is the Brunswick Power Groove, which is only a entry level to mid entry level ball, and i've been throwing it extremely consistantly for the last 2 years without a single problem. It does exactly what I want it to do as long as I hit my mark, every time.

just some food for thought.

I agree .. Just lookin for opinions on how some of the new balls react.. The guy that drills My balls out ( sounds bad ) has seen and been my coach since i was 12

 
Averaged 197-208 between few different houses but my card said 205 the last year I bowled. I have never bowled a 300 or a 800 series.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif. The most strikes in a row was 19, of course that was two games but I was on fire (bowled a 779 series that night, high game of 279). I used to bowl quite a bit (3 times a week) but have not bowled organized in about 2 years. My favorite was a scratch league, made the most $$ in that league. My favorite ball is my trusty Super Beast (dry lanes) and then my Chaos (oily lanes).

I fell ur pain on the 800 series.. When i bowled my 300 i thought for sure i would hit a 800 .. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif but no.. If irecall corrrect i bowled about 30 strikes in 3 games and still missed it... I still remember a kid who was 16 or in that age group that bowled a 900 series... Id love to break his arm //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

 
And IMO the only reason I missed an 800 .. Well No i KNOW the only reason i missed an 800 is cuz i had 3 opens in the other 2 game .. A 7-10, a missed 10 and a 4-7 miss //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

it's ok. i've bowled like 20 papavino(sp) 300's. they piss me off the most, especially when your first five in a row are in practice, then you strike til the 8th :angry:

yea pretty embarrasing.. Just one of those things where u clipped the right side of the 4 and it shoots by and completely missed the 7 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

 
Yea i needed a break from it i used to play on a few different leagues a week and it started to get real spendy... Like with beer/food and leagues around $80-100 a week, But now I have a lil extra time and a lot more $ so its time again.. Looking at all the prices on balls now //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif avg $150 The one i like is like 300:eek: Shoes $125.bag $75

Gettin silly drunk w the boys.. priceless //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
I remember those days. I kinda miss it actually. Just dont have the time nor the funds to do that. I may end up joining a fall league here soon. It will cost 75 to get in and 12 a week. So I might be able to do that. Then again pends the time thing. Dont start till 1000pm. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif So we will see.

Also I have been bowling on and off for the better part of 16 years and I my best season average was a 237 and my high game was 287. Thats right, still have yet to get a 300. I have hit the 800 mark though. Got me a shit ton of trophies, and watches and all kinds of nic knacks from over the years. I at one time thought about pursing it as a career, lol!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

i wanted to try to become a pro bowler as well, the only thing is that being 21 when i actually started to take bowling seriously, i felt as though I missed out on a good 10 or 11 years of coaching/experience...
