Title: QUESTION - SMOKIN OR ABSOLUTE
Post by: monstercrank on August 19, 2005, 02:37:15 AM
I HAVE AN ULTIMATE INFERNO AND HAVE AN INTENSE INFERNO ABOUT TO BE ORDERED AND I WANT TO KNOW FOR A THREE BALL ARSENAL WITCH WOULD FIT IMBETWEEN BETTER THE AI OR THE SI

THE ULTIMATE IS DRILLED EXTREMELY STRONG AND THE INTENSE WILL BE DRILLED TO GO VERY LONG.

YES BUT THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE RIGHT NOW, LIMITED FUNDS. IF I COULD HAVE IT MY WAY I WOULD HAVE BOTH TODAY. SO I NEED THE BALL THAT WOULD FIT THE BEST, IF THE BOTH WOULD FIT EQUALLY THAN I WOULD GET THE SI JUST BECAUSE ITS SO PRETTY

Eh, this has been beaten to death, look for a reply by Ric H, he explained the difference between the SI and AI.

AI would be dead flush, and the SI would be light pocket (skid 5-6ft later) and still carry. Is what he used to describe teh reaction.

I would have to agree that the Intense and the Smokin may overlap in terms of ball reaction.

Going by that alone, then go with the Absolute.  Both are very versatile balls, so I don't think you can go wrong with either one.

For me, I like equipment that gets a little farther down the lane, thus I prefer the Smokin over the Absolute.

Anyways, the Smokin' is almost the same amount of reaction as the Absolute just a much different shape. The Smokin' is probably 5-8' longer through the midlane and more angular, yet smooth in the back part of the lane. Where the Absolute would be dead flush, the Smokin' would be half pocket yet still carry.

I would say try and find an Original Inferno.  That would be perfect between the UI and the II.
