Ebonite Striking Motion bowling ball
by shawn on Nov.14, 2008, under Ball Reviews
I am very impressed with the Ebonite Striking Motion I have mine drilled with the pin 3 1/2 inches from my axis above my ringer finger, the CG kicked out with a hole, and the mass bias 1 inch away from my thumb. My very first game with it, which was also my first game in league, was a 300. I ended the series with an 835 (300,256,279). It is a four game league and the fourth game was a 233. What impressed me most was that I was able to stay with it the entire 4 games, only running into trouble the end of the fourth game. I usually have a little bit of trouble at this center because there tends to be a lot of friction there and the higher end equipment tends to burn up, but the Ebonite Striking Motion allowed me to stay with the same ball and just continue to move, while not losing any hitting power. Anyone who is looking for a ball with great hitting power that continues as the lanes break down should seriously consider this ball.

by shawn on Nov.13, 2008, under Upcoming Balls
The Hammer Raw Hammer Acid is the newest ball to be released from Hammer. From the write up and looks of it, The Hammer Raw Hammer Acid should be just a little bit cleaner in the fronts than the Hammer Raw Hammer Anger was and provide a heavier roll in the back. The color of this ball is burnt red and silver and comes with a matte finish on it. Look for this ball in your local pro shops after December 2nd.
Choosing the right shoe
by shawn on Oct.09, 2008, under Informative
Some may think that the bowling shoe is just simply about look, style and comfort, however there is much more to it than just what the shoe looks like. First you need to decide what type of you it is you need. There are universal bowling shoes (that are for both right-handed and left-handed bowlers), and there are right-handed/left-handed specific shoes. The key difference between the two shoes is that the universal shoes have slide pads on both the right and left shoe, where as the right-handed/left-handed specific shoe only have a slide pad on the shoe you slide on. On the right-handed/left-handed specific shoe, the non slide shoe usually has a rubber bottom; this rubber bottom helps the bowler get a better power step so they do not lose traction. If you have chosen to go with the universal shoe your next decision is simply style and comfort now, however if you chose the right-handed/left-handed your search has just began. The next decision is to decide if the shoe you want has interchangeable soles or not. The benefit of the interchangeable soles is not only can you buy replacement pads for them so they last longer but if you bowl in multiple houses and the approaches are different at each house, you are now able to put a different sole on your shoe that will allow you to slide more or less. Most shoes also have interchangeable heels as well, that provide the same benefit. After this decision has been made, now you can choose on the basis of looks, style and comfort.

This is the ball you need if you are a beginner looking for your first reactive ball or if you bowl a lot of tournaments and are looking for a ball that will clear the front part of the lane with ease later in the block and still hit hard. Not only does this ball cover all of the above, but it comes in three different colors so you can look stylish while knocking down the pins. , ,
The One Encore
by shawn on Sep.12, 2008, under Ball Reviews
I drilled Ebonite The One Encorethe same as the Ebonite The One - Original I had, pin 4 ½ inches from my PAP and above my fingers. Ebonite The One Encore is the same as the Ebonite The One - Original, provides great length with a nice hard turn in the back end. Keep in mind that if you want it to be the same as your original you will have to polish it because it comes out of the box with a 4000 grit finish. If you are looking to get rid of yourEbonite The One - Original, but did not know what to replace it with, then you will not be disappointed with the Ebonite The One Encore.

Hammer Black Widow Venom is a little longer than the original Hammer Black Widow, but this extra length adds to the hitting power and increases the carry of Hammer Black Widow Venom. If you are looking to replace the Hammer Black Widow, the Hammer Black Widow Venom is going to be the way to go.
Psycho Raw Hammer
by shawn on Aug.16, 2008, under Ball Reviews
Pin length from axis point is 5 1/4 inches and above fingers. If you were a fan of the Hammer Raw Hammer Doom you will absolutely love this ball. The Hammer Raw Hammer Psycho is not as jerky as the Hammer Raw Hammer Doom was on the backend which could sometimes get you into trouble with the Hammer Raw Hammer Doom . The Hammer Raw Hammer Psycho provides a smoother more predictable backend reaction than the Hammer Raw Hammer Doom. The Hammer Raw Hammer Psycho is a great ball for league play or later in the block tournaments.
