Drilled up the Bullwhip SE 5 1/2" from PAP.  Left it OOB.  Really smooth reaction for a pearl.  It's really old school reaction that will fit nicely on today's tougher conditions.  GREAT broken down THS ball, 3rd game gem!  Lots of skid up front an a solid reactive arc for backend reaction.  Saw no reason to fool with cover yet.  Carry was good, I did have to make sure I didn't miss too wide of target.  This ball does NOT overreact to the dry which is a nice feature.  Nice arsenal ball will fit a niche.

The Bull Whip..When i first received mine I just thought of this ball as a rehash of a old ball..Well I was dead WRONG..first I drilled mine with the pin below my ring finger with the cg cocked in a 45 degree angle-then I drilled a weight hold 3 inches to the reight of the midline leaving thumb weight and side weight in the ball-I used a 1 inch bit and drilled it over 2 inches deep. The reason i am spelling out the drilling is I have drilled a dozen of these and this drilling makes this ball turn and turn hard even on some oil-it carrys every hit. Some of the other drill patterns I used on this ball does not compare-the other drill patterns i used really does not give the ball the right motion and the ball also seems to squirt when hitting oil. I do not say this much on a scale of 1-20 and 20 being the highest rating I give this ball a 20 it has impressed me this much.

I drilled my Bull Whip with the pin 5" from my axis and over the bridge.  Its layed out at 75 degrees.  Besides using it on a house shot I had the opportunity to throw it on one of the shorter Kegel patterns.  Being a pearl it is very clean through the front but I found it to be smoother.  Overall hook is slightly less than the Green Mamba.  Pin carry is good.  Overall it excels on medium conditions and will be good for when it gets later into the night.

I remember the original and watching bowlers play deeper angles than anything I had seen at that time. So, when AMF (900) brought this back out just had to have one. I have not been disappointed. With the original core wrapped by a more aggressive pearl cover this thing is what skid - flip is all about or as I have described it the original on steroids. Once the lanes open up to the right this ball becomes a monster. Mine came with a 3" pin and 2 3/4 oz. of top weight. Set it up with at 5.25 x 4 with weight hole located above my PAP an inch. Easily clears the heads and mid lane as a pearl should and then left hand turn. Recent outing at a SASBA sweeper the lanes fried fast and had to make a big jump left. Grabbed the Bullwhip and opened it up for back 8 and some $$ in the pocket. Had incredible room but a slight tug would catch some oil and hold pocket. I use this as a step down from my Look and makes a nice 1 -2 punch when I need this type reaction.

On house patterns the Bull Whip SE is phenominal. It has built in recovery from almost anywhere. I was relieved to see this core used again, it was in one of my favorite balls a few years back. With a slightly softer release the Bull Whip SE allows me to stay closer to the friction and play where many of the strokers are. In those times when deeper angles aren't carrying that move to the right makes a huge difference keeping my head above water.

On Sport the Bull Whip SE excels when the heads are choppy and length is needed. Through carrydown this ball can be a weakness.....however there is enough energy stored for down lane that it will cut through it if you can get the balll around it. I have hit a few heavier patterns that had screaming backends and this ball skated but made a move to the pocket all day.
