Honey Badger Extreme Pearl
« on: December 14, 2019, 02:42:25 PM »
I'm a old man whose speed and  arm strength is gone, looking for a pearl that I can throw. now the speed at the cameras is 12+ mph. Is this ball too much being a Asymmetrical ?

I'm sure Doom will comment on this soon, but I feel like this ball would be too much for your speed. I would probably have you look at the Money Badger if you want a strong motion that will get down the lane better for your game.

At 12 mph, the Extreme maybe too much. I'd look at an original Honey Badger or a Boost.

Coverstock: S74R Pearl
Finish: 1500 Grit Polished
Core: 3-Piece Grapnel Asymmetric
RG: 2.54
Differential: 0.053
Int Diff: 0.011

Layout: 70 x 2 x 35
Tester:  PAP 5 1/2 R, 1 1/2 D

Review:
The Honey Badger Extreme Pearl is designed for medium to dry lane conditions. If you have been a fan of the Inception Pearl or Truth Pearl you'll absolutely love the Honey Badger Extreme Pearl. This one will provide the most backend within the 900 line.

When you desire to open the lane up this one will not disappoint. On a 41' and 42' THS pattern this ball is simply amazing and will turn heads as you send this one down the lane. If you are looking for versatility this one is for you.

For me, I went with a shorter Pin to PAP layout to take advantage of the stronger coverstock and maintain control for some sport patterns I encounter. Also, for the pearl I recommend a slight 3K by hand surface adjustment if you desire to smooth out transition of the pearl down lane.

Be sure to add a Honey Badger Extreme Pearl to your line-up today.  Also, be sure to visit my YouTube channel Michael Slatky for more ball videos.
