Where does everybody bowl here.Also what type of league do you bowl in.And what MOTIV ball will you be using.I bowl at Ford Lanes in Dearborn Heights MI.The league is a mixture of high avg.to low. The GT1 and the SX1 will be the balls that work best on this shot.

I bowl in Newington, Ct, and I use a GT1. I'm a high rev power player and people love the reaction and hitting power I get with it.

The GT1 is a awesome ball.It is by far the best benchmark ball I have ever thrown.Good luck with MOTIV this season.I know I'm looking forward to a full season with MOTIV equipment.

Up here in the northwest I am bowling in 4 leagues 3 house shot leagues and 1 PBA experience league. Right now my SX1 is my house conditon shot and for the PBA league (hasn't started yet) I have drilled up a TR2 and a GT1. I am drilling a TX1 here soon to be right under my GT1.
Oh and the centers name is Pacific Lanes here in Tacoma, Wa.

I am the co-proprietor of 2 centers in western PA. It is difficult to concentrate while you're bowling when you own the center. Phones ring, machines breakdown, every little "customer concern" comes your way . . and they think nothing of interrupting you to get some ball work done (I also run the pro shop) while you're bowling. With that said, I sub in 3 leagues in the area where I live which is 45-55 minutes from my centers. This way I can sit back, relax and focus on my bowling. All are men's leagues on typical THS. We had a PBA Experience league in the summer but cannot find the right time and # of lanes to make it go during the regular season.
The SX1 & TX1 work best on these THS. They give me good length w/strong archs off the pattern. Like the GT1 but have not found the right layout for my game yet. Really like the TR2! Wish I had that this summer for my PBA league. Bowled w/it on the Scorpion pattern during a lesson . . OMG (as my teenage daughter would say). Loved the way it held through the front and made its turn at 42'. Have a tournamet today & was hoping to use it but heard they are extremely dry conditions so shined up both SX1's and my TX1 to say how they react.

Well I just got a GT1 drilled for myself yesterday in Jacksonville. I'm only up here for Labor Day and a friend watched me throw a couple shots, drilled it up, and I fell in love. When the season starts for the fall, I am going to be in 2 leagues. One sport shot league and one typical house shot. I bowl out of Orlando, FL at Sky Lanes. I'm still a youth bowler, being only 18 and all, but I think Motiv is going to be noticed around the state because of the tournaments I go to every where here and I think this is going to put me over the top.
Thank you so much Motiv, for producing great bowling equipment and in the near future, I will be getting 1 or 2 more to fill an arsenal of just Motiv equipment and move away from Ebonite.

I bowl in Fort Wayne, IN. I bowl in two leagues and My Monday night is a pba league. The league is cool and we bowl on the condtion the pba bowl on the sunday show. This monday is our first night and we bowled on the Viper. We bowl on wood lanes and I started out with the SX1 and then I went to the TX1 when I got some carry down. I shot 704 in my first week on the Viper. These motiv balls are so great and they match up with my game so much and I love that they are so predictable balls. My second league is on Friday and it is a house shot and the first night I used my GT1 and that ball worked so great. The GT1 is a great house shot ball and I shot 773 in the first week. GET MOTIVATED!!!!!!
