The Columbia 300 Top Speed is a staple in my bag! This ball has been amazing for me during tournaments. I am presently averaging 259 with it during tournament transitions. The pearl ball reads the midlane quite well and responds off the friction even better for a strong continuation through the pins. I lightly scratched the surface with a 3000 pad and have not touched the surface since! This ball has been used on 2023 PBA Earl Anthony, Carmen Salvino, and Don Carter! I recommend you visit your local pro shop operator and put this ball in your bag!
I was a big fan of the Columbia 300 Speed which resulted in some honor scores during competition but WOW, this Top Speed something special. Combining the Formula 1 cover that was utilized in the Speed with the NEW HK22 additive is impressive. My Top Speed is very controllable and predictable. The down lane motion and pin carry is stellar!!! Contact or visit your Pro Shop Operator to get yours.
I was late to the party grabbing one of these, as I’ve had it for a month. But this past Wednesday (March 15th, 2023), I shot games of 249, 269, 299 for a 817 series. I’ve almost thrown this ball exclusively since I got it, I’m tempted to drill another original with the same layout.
Since this worked last time, I hope to see a solid cover Speed coming soon. Maybe call it Warp Speed.
This ball definitely is top speed. Quick down the lane and quick off the corner. The HK22 cover gets the ball to the mid lane and then flips a switch and changes direction. Must have!
Out of the box I was pretty worried when the ball didn’t perform as I had hoped, but after knocking the factory polish off, Wow. This ball flat out makes the turn and continues through the pins. It doesn’t get a lot of use on the fresh but it’s a beast when the lanes start to transition and I need to open my angles. Even with my tweeter release I can really circle the lanes on the burn.
