Only show reviews for Columbia 300 Power Swing
Currently I have the original momentum ball which, I\'ve been currently happy with and decide to try the \"Power Swing\" for it\'s drive thru heavy oil. I was presently impressed on how the ball reacted on my current lane conditions. Out of the Box I bowled 236, 245, 225. As all new equipment goes there is need of some minor adjustments and phyically understanding of you ball reactions under different conditions. Now the test will be in upcoming tournament conditions to see if the reaction is still their. Overall I\'m presently please with the outcome of this ball and future Columbia Momentum series balls. Keep them coming.
got to test this ball with the pin next to ring finger and this ball would go long and roll nice and smooth for a skid flip ball.great ball for med oil when the outside has had oil pushed out to it.

I wasnt very impressed with this ball. It felt like I had to hit my mark every single time to get the ball to the pocket. This ball wasnt very forgiving. I left a lot of ten pins.

In my opinion, this ball would work great for heavy-heavy oil and a bowler who has 16 MPH behind his/her roll. Other than that, it is a very strong ball. I put it away with a quickness in league night after the first frame on a THS that has been shortened by at least 2 feet because the ball was just too strong. If you bowl on wet lanes I would say give it a whirl... I have hit it up with xxx polish tonight, and I am going to give it a fair chance tomorrow, I will write more later on.

As a Columbia Staffer I was able to drill up 5 different Power Swings. From aggressive layouts to tame ones I found the Power Swing is all that it is advertised to be. The backend movement is the strongest of any Columbia I have had
now or in the past. The carry is fantastic when the layout is matched up to the lane condition.

I dont know what this guy below me is talking about,i\'ve had this ball for awhile now and i have to say it is one of the most consistent versatile and readable balls i have ever owned it is such a great benchmark ball...i can use mine on a number of patterns i have used it on the US open Chameleon Scorpion and USBC nationals pattern...i bowled JWTC and i averaged around 220 out there using primarily this ball and a couple momentums,this ball is just great on everything and i couldnt see how ANYONE could bash this ball unless they were being paid to,I promise you this ball is for real and a must have in anyones bag!

Let's See well i'm strong on columbia never threw anything else. Only been bowling for a year... Got the Wrath dead flush(HG 267), Resurgence(HG 289), Momentum swing(HG 255), and this ball the power swing... Drilled Strong Arc maxed out i was told. Got it drilled excited to throw it hoping it was more reactive then all my others in oil. Turned out it is. First time throwing it 40 feet houst shot.
Took me 2 games to understand how to play it can't play 10 board like the rest of my Bowling balls. Kept diving brooklyn with a 182, 192.... My dad told me move more right throw on the 15 board, worked like a charm. Ball rolls smooth in the Heavy Oil. Ended up last game with a 290.
Best ball and Always Frist ball out of my bag. Waiting on My Full swing to come in readin as it will hook alot more. Always fun to look like a cranker...
Wow is the only thing i can think of that trully describes this ball...it\\\'s just incredible such a great benchmark ball! it\\\'s also one of the most versatile balls i have ever thrown,if someone asked me to name three things i liked about this ball it would be versatility,versatility and versatility...I have mine layout out with a 45 x 5 x 35 with the pin up and no hole and it gives me exactly what i was looking for!
This is THE perfect benchmark ball for anyone and i strongly recomend everyone go drill this ball.
this ball was very hard to play with. I found that it would rev up really quickly, but would have no move towards the pocket. It's a great ball for throwing strait up, what with all the built up energy and all, but for an expensive, high-end, heavy oil ball, it is pretty much useless.

I was in a rut bowling around 190 when I bought this ball.
Last 5 series 657 686 670 700 651. 3 no tap series. 820 828 856. So far very happy with my power swing
Damn it, I should have gone by the reviews or the lack thereof. I guess Columbia doesn't have a staff any more or they don't review balls. This is the best site for reviews, kinda one stop. Any way, disappointed, I am a Columbia fan and took the plunge, well someone threw me a life line and I am done with Columbia. I could not make heads or tales of the advertising I saw in my pro shop. It was like they were trying to brand Columbia with no apparant reason. The ball seemed like a week Widow, very upset.
Very suprised by the cosistent roll. Hit hard and carried well, thought I would get a little more on the back end but overall it was good.
The Power Swing is very good on medium oiled lanes conds as its very easy to control. This ball has a hard hit at the pocket and a very good recovery when thrown out right of your target.

Dear LORD, what the heck is going on at this company. I have been bowling for 30 years and can't remember the last time i didn't have a columbia ball in my bag. this ball was terrible. it was ok but since it was supposed to be a high performance ball i feel ripped off. i should have know something was up, the reviews were doubtful and the advertising kinda threw me. it was if columbia didn't know what they had to sell so they just try to portray and image. now that i have thrown the ball i get it. those bowlers in the ad say the heck with it lets have a beer.
