perfect for senior bowlers with slow ball speed may need to change surface to match what you are bowling on.
I figured it was time for a new spare ball and being a retired Firefighter, what better than the AXE. The Axe utilizes a low friction pearl coverstock with polish, which creates a straighter path for your spare game. And it does just that! The Axe comes in three different color combinations and is available now.
Unfortunately due to age I had to drop to a 13 lbs ball ! My first night in league I did something that I never did before ! I had one strike in 3 games!!! Lots of 9 counts (17) ! So I will give it one more shot, before I go back to 14 lbs ! Is it the weight ???
I have use the bowling ball and it excellent, easy on my hand and very smooth roll.
A better spare ball than a standard plastic ball. Much more durable and can be used when the lanes are super dry.
I bought this ball to get less hook than my reactive resin balls & get more control...I have increased my average in both houses I bowl in since using The Purple Smoke Hammer Axe...
Very nice ball for the price. Has great handle when thrown straight or hooked. Definitely a ball with options.
This is a great ball not only for spares,I woulddescribeitas great all around ball.
