Title: Python compared to Wild Thing, Wild Ride, Avlanche Pearl
Post by: kidlost2000 on May 14, 2010, 06:01:44 AM

I have an undrilled Python I'm itching to drill up and I was wanting to see how it compared for others to some of their Brunswick equipment. I currently have drilled a Wild Thing and a Avalanche Pearl that appear to be just stronger and just weaker then the Python.

Any body able to rate how the Python compared with some of their other Brunswick equipment??(especially a Wild Thing or Avalanche Pearl)

IME your observation is correct--the Python is straighter through the midlane and weaker overall than the Wild Thing, and sharper at the break and slightly stronger overall than the Avalanche Pearl.

The Python is one of the most versatile balls I''ve drilled in quite some time. Based on the layout and surface you choose, you could have one as weak as an Avalanche or stronger than a Wild Thing. I have 3 Pythons with 3 different layouts and from the weakest to the strongest of the 3 I see as much as 15 boards of difference on some conditions.

But, based on similar layouts as a true comparison, I would say the Python would be at least an arrow stronger than an Avalanche, mostly when you stay in the oil. Compared to the Wild Thing, I think the Python is a bit earlier and stronger in the midlane, and the Wild Thing has a quicker response time, making a sharper move when it does read friction.

I don''t leave home without taking at least 2 of the 3 Pythons I have.
