Comments about Columbia Pure Swing:
I am a 210 league bowler. I drilled a Pure Swing yesterday before my league and used it the third game. I'd have to say that this ball hits harder then my Cell Pearl which I thought was the hardest hitting ball on the market. I was wrong. This ball holds great and if I missed a little bit right it still recovered. Its not the biggest hooking ball but it has a great controlable finish to it. Plus it looks great going down the lane. Great Ball!!

Comments about Columbia Pure Swing:
I had this ball drilled at 5 1/2. Pin above the finger holes. This ball gets down the lanes and hits the pocket solid. I am a 205 bowler and my scores with this ball is averaging 220+. I have no issues with this product.

Comments about Columbia Pure Swing:
I was only able to get one game in with the pure swing before the league arrived today. The lanes were freshly oiled, THS has been a little on the wet side lately. I'm a power player, I was standing on fifteen playing over five and my ball speed was around 16 mph I bowled a 257. I am very impressed with the pure swing and it is definitely the ball I have chosen to be a step below my mission. To give some insight my mission was drilled tamed. My Pure Swing from the mass bias drilling instruction sheet was drilled for an all purpose layout for a medium track. My ball has 1oz side and thumb weight. For the record I am currently carrying a 206 avg,and I hope this is an insightful review.

Comments about Columbia Pure Swing:
I wanted a ball that would not hook out of my hand and I could have more control with on a league house pattern. We are bowling on 40 ft flat pattern with medium oil to the channels. I went to my local pro shop and he advised me to get this ball. And boy was he right. With only 3 games of practice on this ball, I shot 797 next night of league bowling after purchasing. And this is in a house that has only had 5 800s ever. It was real smooth through heads, did not react mid lane, and held its finishing power to the end. The backend reaction was great and it kept going through the pocket. I would classify myself as a tweener and I throw about 17-18 mph. I average 215 but I had been struggling to find a ball that could get through the heads and still have enough power on the backend. I have found my answer. If you want a ball that reacts great on a house shot as listed above, and you do not need a truck but a ball that will skip/flip and is still extremely predictable at the break point, the pure swing is your ball.
