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.

Yes. I ended up buying another ball because the ball was to small for an adult.

Its not a high bounce like a super ball. If you bounce it hard enough, it will return to your hand.

I think it plays well for young adults. If the ball is rolled on concrete though it will scuff - we laid out some indoor/outdoor carpet for the lane and that solved it.

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.

The ball (a synthetic) feels very much like leather and plays as such. I find it easy to serve and bump.

Sorry, this is the first time I have owned a medicine ball. I bought the Valeo based on the reviews I read about this brand versus the other ones.

the J/fit ball that I ordered is constructed very very well. The dynamax ball was a lot more money, that's why i chose this one and i've been very happy.

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.

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.

Yes, each ball is a different color and a different strength. You work your way up as your hand/wrist gets stronger, start with the purple ball. I hope this helped!

I think this ball would meet your needs. On a hard service it would bounce better than a basketball. This is a versatile product that can be used in many different sports.

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

Yes ,give it a try I know you will be happy with it. I had a guy from a mans slow pitch check it out, and said he was going to get one for his team too practice.

Yes, They are for a right hand bowler. I've used them for over a month and my average has gone up some.

Laney, I really don't know about the construction. I suppose the boxes would tell you all you need to know. I've been a real fan of this ball, but recently switched to the Wilson Staff that is 50 compression. They definitely stop on the green but seem to be longer.

Hi. i bought it last winter. The ball is authentic, totally original. But the ball surface wasn't soft as I expected it to be. It was hard to grab for my hands and it slips easily. Using it for a month or two I noticed that things are going better. It seems strange to me that this kind of ball went used for n b a games but otherwise the ball seems original. I hope to have helped u
