I like it I'm not your best bowler but it does have nice handling, and it beats the ball I had, and people in our bowling teams liked it, and of course Columbia is one of the best, yes it's a great buy, happy bowling Michael, oh and my husband has the same of course a different weight

An excellent ball whatever your experience; I often prefer it to my new Optimus, which is twice the price as the Freeze is consistent and predictable. It has plenty of hook if you throw it correctly.

It is basically an entry level ball (perfect for a beginner); it is also a good bowling ball for an older guy (like me) who's throwing speed is low, 8-10 MPH. I am using it for the first shot and for the spare shot. Besides its qualities, this ball is low priced and mine came with free shipping on the top of it. I had it drilled by the local pro shop. I was able to bowl with it a 609 and a 603 series, in spite of its low weight (10 lbs.)

The very first ball I ever owned was an old Columbia 300. That was nearly fifty years age. If you through a relatively straight ball, not a big hook, this ball should be fine. As with any ball, having it drilled properly is critical. Good lunch.

NO, it a Path but I like it. The one I wanted is the path rising it the next level up. It's a great preformance ball. Its $74.00 and this is good for beginners or just playing for fun at $47.00 . I played for one year with the ball, got my money out of it already.

If You Want More Of A Random Throw Of The ball, then yes it is useful. I don't use it often.

Most definitely yes. I use normal golf balls as well as practice balls. It's a fabulous device. A little tricky to learn how to refold, but after a few times you get it.

My bowling ball is an 8 lb. ball. It feels a little heavier than my friend's 8 lb. ball. Due to an injury to my arm my sports medicine doctor wants me to use an 8 lb. ball. I think my ball is the best ball there is. I like the color, the feel of the ball, and the positional manipulations I can accomplish with my Ebonite Maxim Captain Midnight bowling ball.

It's an indoor/outdoor ball. I play indoors and have been using this particular ball for the past 4 yrs.

Feels like...pleather :-) Honestly, it plays and feels good, much like the old Spaulding Gold's we enjoyed back in the day. Very controllable on serve and serve receive. It's a bit round (no clearly defined panels) for hand setting, but its got just enough texture to prevent spinning out the hand without feeling awkward. We have bags of balls, including several leather Wilson AVP's, but we use these synthetic ones the most for grass court ball because any moisture in the grass won't faze them at all. True story, we lost one of these in a bush a year ago. Just recently found it. It's been outside in the weather for a full year (SoCal weather, not too harsh), and it's perfectly fine and we still play with it. It's a bit faded compared to a newer one, but the ball surface is exactly the same. Amazing really.

Depends on how well you can hit back. The majority of my balls go flying off the table and I have to stop every few minutes to pick them up.

If by "full size" you are referring to the fit in my hand, then yes. My hand size is larger than the average hand size and the trackball is fits comfortably. I experience fewer stiffness and soreness in my hand and arm than other styles

Hi, yes you can use/play with this Wilson Ball. It is an official game ball.

Hi, all I can tell you is that the large is huge. Much larger than expected. About the size of a blimp! I would call isokenetics before purchasing. Btw, the quality of the ball is top notch. Good luck.

Correct, there is no bounce to this ball. I prefer it though. I like the soft, sandy feel.

Its a step up from beginners ' cuz it is a reaction ball, but then u have the more expensive balls.. I would say its for experienced players

It pretty much as the same feel as the Evolution. Most players I know and have met love the feeling as it provides exceptional grip, especially for ball handlers. Probably will get some getting used to for you, but it is really a better quality ball than anything on the market presently ....

The ball is like a heavy wiffle ball. It would not bounce well on grass. Unless you live in the desert, a yard will be too soft. We play in the street by our house.
