Always wondered what the difference was in the two, thanks for the video

So the Strike King appears much stronger. 

Please keep in mind that with his drilling and the added P3 weight hole, kidlost has maximized the ball reaction for both balls. There are much milder drilling available for both balls that would make them suitable for less oil with a more controlled backend.

Why are low end balls getting stronger and stronger??

because most people (Note, I did not say all) are encountering more and more oil, even on house patterns. If you're not one of them, put aside 1 or 2 of the old fashioned kind of dry lane, resin control balls, like the Slingshot, the Silver Recon Pearl, Chainsaw and the Blue/Green Centaur or, pearl urethanes, like the SuperNatural, and the Desperado.

+1 Keep in mind both are drilled aggressively. Both are drilled to increase the diffs. and have strong down lane reactions.

 Both can easily be drilled to reduce flare and be much more contollable on drier conditions. Just one example of comparing the two when drilled similar. The Slingshot uses PK17 cover circa 1995. It doesn't get much older then that.

Yes it is stronger.

For your slower speed and Rev rate those balls look awesome for you. Good video. I've heard reports from people about the strike kings being sneaky strong on the ths when you're by the friction.

Armourboy, the Ringer will be stronger than the Strike King. The Ringer will handle more oil than the Strike King. Your steps from Meanstreak to Slingshot is accurate.

........6 max including the video. Same for the Strike King.
