Todays balls Hook potential vs Black ice zone?
« on: February 28, 2010, 06:48:23 AM »
Looking for a new ball, as the last one I have is a black ice zone from abour 8+ yrs ago.. I havent bowled with it a ton, but when I get a new ball I just dont want it to be  a new version of what i have.. So I want something that hooks /arcs alot more, but maybe not quite a 3.5 aggression

…… you can't  add a physics term to a bowling term and expect it to mean something.

Closest thing to a black ice would be something like the Avalanche Blue/Silver Reactive Pearl. Mine rolls great. Stronger then I expected.

I'd say the closest thing out now (PK8 Pearl Cover w/Strong core) is the Swarm..

My friend still uses the Danger Zone Black Ice I gave to him years ago and it still works like a champ. If you can find one let me know, because I'm tired of giving good balls away to friends.

Still pissed about giving away my V2.

So what would YOU say are the top best performing balls for the money?

Like I said earlier, I want something more aggressive than the black ice, but also want to be able to have a good handle on it..  
 

Been narrowing it down to.

Rattler
wild thing
black widow nasty/ venom
reign of fire

The rattler does interest me , As long as it will be much more aggressive and hook more than the black ice
