The AMF Encore is a new mid-level addition to the AMF300 ball lineup. This pearl symmetric ball is good on medium-dry lane conditions. With the drilling that I used on this ball, I can compare it to the 900 Global Breakdown that I currently use, and they react in a similar fashion, but I would say that the Encore is a little more length and a bigger backend reaction. I like to use this layout on equipment that I want to be able to keep outside and play straighter angles downlane, and this ball matches up well by being able to clear the heads and still have enough pop downlane to get good carry. If I compare it to a similar ball in the AMF300 line, the NightHawk SE, it is a bit more ball overall. Using the F73 Pearl cover, this ball will have the biggest motion on the backend part of the lane. This would be my first choice to transiation towards after I see that my benchmark reaction is a bit too much or too early.
