Amazing what they've done with ball technology and the cores. And different coverings for different oil levels on the lanes.

Back in my day, you used one ball with no special core and you dealt with it! /end cane shaking
Lol! And thats why 178 was a great average back in the day, now its barely adequate. The balls of today can make anyone look good. Thats why we have different oil patterns now, to level the playing field. Forces you to have more than 1 shot in your arsenal. Its all about versatility now.

I dont think thats a very accurate recall! Haha, not saying it cant be true, but very unlikely, considering pros only carry 230ish avgs.

Great set! I shot 653 last night and my dad shot 663. Loser buys dinner.
