Harsh Reality
« on: February 16, 2024, 10:10:42 AM »
The 900Global Harsh Reality is an upgraded version of the original Reality with A.I. Core Technology! Featuring the Disturbance A.I. Asymmetric Core, this ball offers a familiar lane appearance but delivers enhanced overall performance compared to its predecessor. With a lower RG, higher differential, and increased intermediate differential, the Harsh Reality maintains the shape of the original Reality while excelling on the heaviest oil patterns. The Reserve Blend 902 Solid Cover finished with 2000 Grit Abralon, is specifically designed for the toughest conditions, making it the most powerful ball ever produced by 900 Global. The unique Reserve Blend 902 Solid Cover ensures maximum oil absorption and displacement for increased hook potential.

I drilled my HARSH REALITY up fairly strong with a 4.5 x 3.5 x 2.5 VLS layout. I have touched the surface up a couple of times with a 1500 and 2000 pad.

This is an early reading ball. Probably too early for my slower speed. I compared it with my other strong solids in the SUMMIT and ABSOLUTE POWER. The HARSH is much earlier read than those two balls. When there are slicker fronts and I need early read, then the HARSH is the first out of my bag. Drill this one up if you need earlier read on slicker patterns.

 The New ball in the 900 Global line is the Harsh Reality.   The Harsh comes with the new A.I. technology and strong solid coverstock.  The original Reality is my favorite 900 Global ball ever.  So I drilled the Harsh the same way, pin down 4.5x 4 x 4.5 pin down.   The original Reality was a little clean and more response down lane for a Asymmetrical Solid.  So the Harsh has stronger solid cover which is about 1 foot earlier and thus a little less on the backend.   The Harsh is the strongest ball in the line.  I have used the Harsh on house shots but usually only get 1 game out of it before it forces me too far left.  On the longer sport patterns is where I see myself using the Harsh the most.  Harsh is good ball for higher speed players as it will help the ball slow
down and react sooner.  Great addition to the 900 Global Line.
