I bought my Night Hawk Menace in December 1999. This ball is getting on a bit now but if you can still find it you may be on to a winner. Around the time I got it the price was around £150 in the UK. I know they are a lot cheaper in the USA but I guess we are being stitched price wise in the UK. Last year I bowled in two leagues at Tolworth "Charrington Bowl" using the Menace. I achieve 196 and 192 averages in these leagues over approx 120 games in each league. This ball reacts well on most lanes. Depending on how the ball is drilled you can achieve very good scores. I achieved my personal best last year. A 758 over 3 games (best game of 279). Since then this ball has lost a bit of it grip. I have resurfaced a couple of times. I still use this ball but it may be time for a new one.
Any suggestions. Below is our league web site.
