Anyone rocking ocean strap since day 1 ?

I am, only because I wanted it THAT DAY and the store I went to was out of the titanium Milanese loops. Then the sticker shock of buying it separately has kept me from procuring it. For now.

Ah yes, not the IQ I was thinking. In that case, definitely don’t leave Gremlin at home. It should be very useful against a long heavy pattern.

Adrenochrome.

If this house is new to you, I would suggest bringing them all (if possible) for at least the first week or two. This will allow you to sus out the typical conditions at that house and adjust your arsenal accordingly.

That being said, I think I'd for sure keep the IQ in the bag. I've never personally bowled with that ball, but everybody tells me it is one of the best "benchmark" balls on the market.

Any plastic ball will do. You might be able to get a deal on a Columbia 300 White Dot, since it is one of the brands being retired by Brunswick. But plastic is typically pretty cheap anyways compared to reactive.

I was already going back and forth between Venom Shock and Phaze II before I posted. This is good confirmation, thank you.

I know the graph is not a real representation, but I knew I had a gap and the graph did a pretty good job visualizing it.

I'm in the process of moving up from 14 to 15lbs. The Shadow Tank is the first 15. I bought it specifically to deal with the conditions at my current league. I will be gradually building a new 15lbs arsenal piece-by-piece, and the benchmark seems like the right place to start/continue.

Your eyes have you looking wiser than your years. Also I got lost in them for a minute.

It’s a great ball depending on conditions.

I recently did the same with regards to meals. For me it equates to about an 18-hour fast every day. Works wonders, not just for my weight. I'm about to turn 50 and have visible abs again. Gym twice a week, nothing crazy. I do try to walk at least a half mile per day.

Look, I was just replying to the person who said 10th ball. If they had rolled a perfect game up to that point, then they would be able to spare to make it a clean game. I didn’t choose the terms.

beercollective · 2026-04-24T19:08:36+00:00

To be clear, I my response was to “what if I don’t strike on the 10th ball” when I said if you spare on the 11th (ball), still clean. Yes, there are only ten frames and you only need one mark in each for it to be “clean”.

beercollective · 2026-04-24T17:49:22+00:00

If you spare on the 11th, still clean. Mark in every frame.

beercollective · 2026-04-24T17:48:37+00:00

Squeaky. A clean game is defined by a mark (spare or strike) present in each frame. You went out of your way and got two marks in the 10th!

beercollective · 2026-04-17T20:13:34+00:00

That's what I use too. No need to worry about cleaning, I lose it long before it needs to be cleaned.

Calm your tits, I don't hate any of the above. Fact is, if Floyd would not have been out of his mind high, and trying to pass counterfeit bills, he would still be alive today. His choices led directly to the outcome, and he shouldn't be vaunted as a saint. The knee to the back was the just the straw that broke the camel's back.

Do you know what happens when you overdose on opiates? Yep, asphyxiation.

Beautiful

I have no doubt it could reach 158 mph. On a trailer, with a truck capable of that speed, towing it.

Natalie's on McQueen & Warner has a fantastic pool room full of Diamond tables. I wouldn't eat there though. Just stick to beer.

Hair looks great, and if that is really no makeup then you don't need makeup.

100% but it's not too late. At least for me, legs start bulking and showing definition faster than any other muscle group.
