WHY BUY THEM?

if the balls the people say are $h!t done why dont u sell them or give them away?

I'll take them, for a reasonable price, or for free

 

[-d-_-b-]

haha

James you already know the reason why i hate the Rock so much...

Basically i bought it for 3 reasons
1/. i need a heavy oil ball
2/. The company website said that this was their best soup eater yet (last time i trust website propaganda)
3/. It was discounted as an end of year special

hehehe

I now hate the ball for two reasons
1/. Once the oil got in the coverstock it was only useful as a spare ball
2/. See number 1

As you can see i hate the ball intensly

I dont wish to sell the ball for 2 reasons
1/. I am working like crazy, trying every available method to try and rejuvinate this coverstock, its now more a matter of stubborn pride
2/. For the look on other peoples faces when they see that i find it easier to hook my maxim then this pro-active pile o s***.

Actually i have a third reason now that i think bout it
3/. I was sold a lemon that died after 50 games, i dont want to pass that lemon onto a mate, instead i will change ball companies try not to make the same mistake again.

I hope that answers your questions mate

You want the ball to turn, put more the 3 revs on it, you'll never get the coverstock back, if you tried maintaining it, it would have lasted 100 games

And what about the ball, neglected cause you got no hand. Poor Rock,RIP Rock RIP

If only u were with me, you get use

DISCLAIMER: For those who dont like conversations occuring on sites i apologise, this will be the last message i send in relation to this. Hopefully this part of the conversation will end here.

Ok, just because i prefer consitancy over revs which is probably the inverse of your game doesn't mean that i can't be dissapointed by a performance of a bowling ball.

The fact that my tiger hooks stronger and earlier which is drilled top heavy as opposed to my rock which is drilled for early hook with a 4" pin should be enough evidence.

For you the rock may work wonders, hell, it may even hit the pins better than when you have to use a spare ball due to excessive revs. However for my game it is highly overrated and did die startlingly quickly around the 40-50 games mark, even with my obvious lack of hand.

My point is that it is just not worth the money that i paid for it. I read the reviews, they were good, i bought the ball, it was good, but alas it died, and much earlier than i would've expected from a "then" upper range bowling ball.

Oh well thats most definitely more than my 2 cents, and it is my last say on this particular topic

AMF nighthawk revenge (always the first ball out of the bag and most reliable one)
