In general what would you consider Brunswick's best skid / flip ball for a  deep inside type shot.

From my experience, it has been the Python.  That ball can really get sideways for you on the backend.  Depending on your volume, the Rattler can do a great job also.  I give my vote to the Python because I prefer the core in the python a little more.  For my ball speed the Python will pick up early enough to recover and create good angle.  It is really up to the individual and how they throw the ball.  BrunsBob's synopsis is really accurate.  Both are winners.  No offense meant to anyone that stated that you would get a better reaction from something other than Brunswick, but you should really try some of their newer offerings.  They are no longer early and smooth.  Do they have that reaction in their lineup, yes.  But that is not the only reaction that they have.  
Thanks,
Dennis Rhodes

Second the impression, that the EnMotion coverstock (Python, TFP, SZ) offers a good base for s skid/flip reaction. But it comes IMHO with the price of control issues... This cover glides very well though the heads (one of the best in this category that I used so far), but I found the cover to be VERY itchy at the breakpoint and when encountering dry boards, and it would not handle carrydown/longer shots well. Well, you just get what you want...

But I can see that an EnMotion ball with polish and a stacked layout (maybe with a high pin, too), can be a very flippy thing, and the Python would be a good ball choice from the current arsenal.

I shot 840 for 4 Sunday and 717 for 3 tonight just by switching back to my Punisher at my "dry old wood" house. This ball still dominates! NControl FTW.
