Well this ball with it's "WARNING, THIS BALL HOOKS" scared me into a mindset - "where am I going to throw this one?" Safe to say it's a versatile hook in a box! Drilled it up with a 4 x 3, pin down tried it first in a box finish. League condition, AMF synthetic's 41ft pattern. Shot 700 playing around 22 with a little swing and this dull ball (1000 abralon) STILL had a strong enough move to slap out the 10. It was impressive for a dull ball that deep. Now I couldn't go away too much for either overreacion early or roll-out later but it still did it's job. This ball is a roller, hooker. It's an absolute must for heavy oil. It opens up a tight shot so well! I've tried it with 2000 abralon, 4000 abralon and polish. With the 2000/4000 I am able to play a little straighter line and stay with it longer. Still needs oil up front but reaction was STRONG to say the least. Polished it's a ball you can actually swing to the track and it gives you a real continuous movement into the pits. Carries the "off" hit extremely well, either light or heavy, meaning lots of trip 4's for the right hander.
AMF's now has a big hooker that can easily be changed to the bowler's style. Real easy ball to read usually means high scores!! I think this will be a winner.
