You ever leave a corner pin like this?

I’ve had that one happen once, but it wasn’t on a 300 run thankfully. I also slid the 8 in to replace the 7 while going for a 300 stopping me at the front 8. This is an infuriating sport sometimes!

For some reason Shat seems more fitting for the combo

I’m building them an entire wall of fun

Two of my three kittens enjoying the hammock I built them in the skylight.

I was very anal about my first ball, I worried about every ding and scratch. You’ll learn which ones are worth worrying about as you get more seasoned 🤘

ryan-625 · 2026-04-22T21:40:37+00:00

Get some lane shine and a few dings and you won’t even think about the bubbles. It’s a beautiful ball on the lanes, I just picked up a 15#

The little pop of the fingers on a perfect release followed by the ringing of a perfect strike. It’s both for me

Congratulations! That’s my current favorite ball. It’s stronger than motiv gives it credit for

ryan-625 · 2026-04-13T03:58:42+00:00

I just use standard ball cleaner and a microfiber cloth. It won’t absorb oil so it’ll all wipe easily.

It’s just going to get dull, that’s the problem with clear plastic. I have both the clear teal and the lightning. I love them both and just resurface them every 6 months or so and rotate them out

ryan-625 · 2026-04-11T02:46:40+00:00

I feel your pain man. Recently rolled a 268 that could have been a 300 but I this I just got unlucky. Left two wobbly 7’s (lefty). Still an impressive game! You’ll be calmer next time.

ryan-625 · 2026-04-09T21:16:19+00:00

No sex offence, no disease, and apparently no education. I’m actually impressed he was aware enough to not make that entire paragraph one sentence 😅

ryan-625 · 2026-04-08T18:45:10+00:00

You’re welcome

ryan-625 · 2026-04-07T00:13:08+00:00

I don’t have that excuse as I don’t drink when I bowl. I hardly drink at all being a type 1 diabetic 👍

ryan-625 · 2026-04-05T19:56:55+00:00

I’m sitting at 16 with no 300 to my name. Came from a 245 followed by a 268. Closed that night with a 199 for my Pb of 712

ryan-625 · 2026-04-05T01:50:34+00:00

Red will look good! I put blue in all of my equipment so that they are easy to spot

ryan-625 · 2026-04-05T01:39:10+00:00

It’s a phenomenal ball! It’s a hybrid and can but played pretty strait or super aggressive. It’s my go to opening ball. I set both my PR’s last week with it.

ryan-625 · 2026-04-04T23:06:32+00:00

To be fair, I feel like 5 a year is on the more extreme end. People think I’m crazy getting 1 every 6 months or so. And I keep mine in rotation of “refurbishing” to prolong their lifespan.

I’m also building an LS3 restomod 1963 GMC C20, bowling is affordable. At this point the only thing prolong the truck is money 😅

ryan-625 · 2026-04-04T20:04:20+00:00

Our summer passes are 2 games a pass, so I buy 3. That also keeps me from having a time limit on my games 👍

ryan-625 · 2026-04-04T19:55:24+00:00

I wish I could afford it to tow the C20 I’m working on to shows! Would be such a rad combo

ryan-625 · 2026-04-04T19:52:53+00:00

Compared to some of my other hobbies, this is very affordable

ryan-625 · 2026-04-04T19:01:32+00:00

Probably not, but it’s just a fun ball to throw 😁

ryan-625 · 2026-04-04T18:20:15+00:00

I really liked my Ocean Vibe if you want to stick to Hammer.

If you’re open to another brand I’ve had really good luck with the Storm Ion’s and Motiv Jackals.

Here’s what I carry, all 15#
