Just to clear things up, the Rattler is nowhere near the Ultimate Inferno's reaction. Maybe "justdale" has misunderstood me at some point. It would be close to a Smokin' Inferno, but still stronger in my opinion.
It's a skid/snap ball that needs a little friction (as do all pearls) then it will turn hard. If it's not turning for you, it's simply not finding friction. You can try surface adjustments because they will help.
My son throws a Cell Pearl and we can play identical lines. My Rattler is stronger by a few boards on the back. We bowl 2 different houses with them side-by-side with the same results. THIS IS NOT A KNOCK AGAINST THE CELL PEARL. It has been a good ball for him. Our experience is also not scientific evidence either, just our experience.
If any of you need help with yours, just let me know. I don't have all the answers, but I might be able to help.
