I've had the ball for about 5 days and have received more comments on how nice the ball looks, both on the lanes and on the ball return. It is really a nice color scheme.
Laid it out with the pin 5 1/4" from my PAP, with a dual angle layout of 55* x 40* (the same as a Loud Noize that I really liked)...ended up looking like this:
http://www.ebaumsworld.com/pictures/view/80639515/I really did not know what to expect with this ball. I found it fits right in between the Noize and Loud Noize perfectly. The Noize has a stronger cover, so it was able to stay in the oil longer. The Noize ball motion is a strong arc, from the foul line to the pins. What I found with the Cool Noize was that when the Noize started to lose energy as the head oil went away, the Cool Noize would fill its shoes, without having to move my feet. When the lanes were fresher, I was about 3 boards right with my feet and 2 boards right with my target with the Cool Noize compared to the Noize. The Cool Noize got through the fronts 1000x better and had a MUCH more defined POP at the backend. The first thing I noticed was the way the pins went off the deck...all at the same time. Every strike was a no-doubter.
When comparing to a Loud Noize, I saw about 10 more feet of length with the Loud Noize, and stood about 8 boards further to the outside and my target was about 5 boards further right.
All in all, I would say this is by far the best ball in the Noize line. For high rev players who don't like early hook, this will be a great ball for med-heavy oil at the middle of the road price-point. For lower rev players who struggle with early hook buy still want to see the ball curve in the backend, this is the ball for you.
Definitely another winner from Columbia 300.
