Advantages: Hard to find Disadvantages: New balls around
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 ... ...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.

Advantages: Good Pin Action Disadvantages: May not suit dry lanes
...at Charrington Bowl using the APEX I bowled a perfect Game of 300. I have been bowling 22 years and the best I had was 11 strikes in a row. The strikes were all in the 1-3 pocket. When I got the first 10 strikes my legs became very wobbly and the last 2 strikes I could not beleive I got them. Well I guess if you persevere you will get there in the end.

I was never the best Ten Pin bowler at my local centre but managed to gaina respectable average with my older AMForce 4 ball. I have a medium to slow delivery and a fair amount of hook and rotation on the ball. When my AMForce finally bit the bullet It was time to find a new ball. Through no other reason than advertising in the Go TenPin magazine I choose the Nighthawk Torque. I have never looked back since buying this ball but it has changed my ... ...ball does react well, in either polished or dull styles. Imediatley this cause me a few problems because of my delivery speed. I was pushing this ball wider and wider and it was still coming back into the pocket. Most of the time a bit too far. My average started to creep up and up as the leagues went on and I got used to this ball. Even though this ball hooks alot for me, the bit about it that really impresses me is the length it can have before ...
...if yourin the market for a new spare ball, and want to show off to your mates. Pick up an Ebonite Skull ball ! I think it is avaiable in all weights above 13lb. However be quick, Ebonite only made a limited number of these "boo balls". ...

All come with a more advanced level of inter-changeable sole. And the build quality is second to none. However this supremacy comes at a price. With model 4 starting at around 100 notes, and reaching up to £130 for the 6th version, you have got to be real serious to get a pair of these. · Alternatively there is the American favourite: Lind’s Exxtra (Yes, its got ...
