I bowl April 1 and 2 and will bring my Special Agent, Rock Pearl and White Dot  The baggage fees scare me and bringing one less ball this year will cut down some confusion. /adjusts Dunce Cap

Found out from the manager they had the shot out on 1 and 2 last night, so I went over after league. Man, it's nice to be able to use the Cell. I was able to play anywhere from 1st to 4th arrow - best looks were straight up 7, or 4th arrow out to 12. The Avalanche had a nice look outside with a bit less speed too. Actually, all of my balls had a good look outside. Total was nice from inside as well. Very playable - just make good shots.

Wow, you went straight up 7 with the Cell? I wonder if the VG can do the same thing? I know I could only get my Terminator outside of 10 when the lanes started to breakdown in the later games.
I'd like to practice on this shot. But our House has it down at 8 am on Sunday. Little too early. By the time I could get there, I am sure it would be broken down .

Dennis:
When I was talking to Bill, he said to let him know when I wanted to go up there and he would put the shot out for us. When we go, I will let you know.

It played pretty similar to the old Scorpion, from what I can remember.

GP, don't you think the shot would play different on wooden lanes? Or not last as long?

It will play different and not last as long. They have different shots programs into their machine. He said basically he could put something out tougher to make us throw better shots. Not as much miss area.
