Eliminator some serious ball for any bowler!
« on: October 21, 2004, 10:46:05 AM »
This ball has really has a lot of good reviews and as a recent owner I can see why.

The core is strong(even a little earlier than the Detonator) and the cover is strong but weaker than say a Reaction Roll or The Detonator cover.

This ball really is for when you have your ignitor almost going well and you say I really had this thing in a slightly earlier version.  Describes the same great path as the ignitor but on medium(if highly polished or cerium trizact) or on near wettest oil on if dull say green pad.  This a broad range of wetter patterns and it will make you look good!

The ball looks good and moves even and strong with a rounded hard move on the back.  I have mine overdrilled for our local condition.  Pin up over an inch above my ring finger and this before they fixed the house stripping machine.

As set up now it is perfect for pattern B on the tour and actually has so much guts it looks like a strong mass bias ball say a AMF Evo Extra or even a Phenom unleashed set up for pattern B.  It does with the pin way up what these assymmetric balls do with the pin even or slightly up from the ring.
Baby, turn the corner from inside on a longer pattern.

This ball is really a best of breed in the medium lightload particle class!
Others considered are the Icon2, Icon, and Roto Silver Particle.

Anyone have one to part with?  Brunswick lefty!

REgards,

PS in a pecking order with my other great stuff.  Sonic Boom, Vortex II pearl, Crunch (dull) it is another 4 board step up with the feet into the oil pattern.
Stonger than strong!  All the marketing material is true!  PS it looks good and hits good too!
PPS oh yeah I'm going to move my pin down!  Unless I use my Core Power LRG for this slot!

Two drilled and two tucked away!
It's a great ball. I punched one out with the 2L pattern and first league set was 805! I also think the Warp Zone can fill similar duty, when smoothed and polished. Those two balls carry the world!!!!

Been one of the most dependable balls in my bag for the last 2 years, on number 2.  First one was drilled more label and was very smooth, 2nd is drilled for a little more length and stronger finish and it turns the corner excellent on the longer patters, but not overreaction.  Tryin to keep this baby in as good of condition as possible before they come out with the new light load particle.

I got one of those that I didn't have much luck with. Put it in the closet.
Mind is stacked with the pin next to the ring finger. Polished it went to long,
dulled up a little it would come up from the outside but slide in the middle. How do you drill it to handle medium/heavy oil and still have control? A strong arc not to flippy. Thanks
