STEROIDS.

I still think of the 2.5 as an awesome ball. Slightly cleaner than the 3.5 through the heads. I put a little polish on mine so I can use it more often.

The 3.5 is everything you like in the 2.5, but with a more aggressive move on the lane. I've been deeper on the lane (on a fresh pattern) with this ball than I've ever been. EVER!

I am definitely taking mine to nationals this year, hoping it will give me more forgiveness with my target.

Cool.  Thanks guys.  That is what I was thinking.  I thought it would be a Nationals only ball.  It will be too much for me in league conditions, as my 2.5 polished is a lot of ball.

Who needs a 300 or 800, when I have a 294 and a 295!?!?!

I have both & the 3.5 is as others said, is the 2.5 on steroids.  In a head-to-head comparison, I found that it reacts sooner and stronger to friction while retaining the 'crush the rack' action of the 2.5.  I got the 3.5 for Nationals but I intend to use it for Nationals and the upcoming tournament season as well as when I play sport shot conditions.  On the THS shot used during my league nights, I find it best during the 1st game but I do have to line up deeper inside.  I can  then switch to the 2.5 to finish out the set.

the 3.5 is a 2.5 on steroids......earlier hook and more backend.
