wow...i threw the my friends big time today and i was kinda surprised when i threw it....one of the things i knew that i would be getting out of the ball is the hook...but from my killer instinct to the big time i think is a huge difference. The killer to me difinetly hits harder than the big time...i like the big time better because i am the type of guy who dosent really like backend....the killer is a really good backend ball since it waits so long for it to break...but i mean the big time if you place it right in the pocket it difinetly is a solid ball to have....theres ups nd downs on every ball...but overall i wouldnt mind having a big time
