Similar Motion to the World Beater ?
« on: January 16, 2014, 12:16:35 AM »
SO while I never got to throw a World Beater, I would like to find something with similar ball motion...   

Right now, for stuff I have a 811A, 811c/t, 920T x2, 508a (rico), 300c solid (rico), 300t, 300c pearl, and a Arson Low flare.. 

what I am looking at is something like the Eruption Pro, Antics, another 811c/t, 912t..

This may come off as rude so I wanted to say that this is in no way intended to be that at all. But if you never threw it how can you know what a similar ball reaction would be to the world beater for you? I understand someone who has thrown it and found another ball that's similar but it may not be the same for you. I only say this because each ball will react for people quite differently.

I have to +1 this. And you aren't being rude. My suggestion is to do research on the core/cover combo of the WB and then come up with something that would be close. If not, then try to see if you can find a WB either single drilled or on EBAY.

I've thrown the World Beater quite a bit. Of the current stuff available, the Motiv 2 Cruel gives me a similar look. Both are strong in oil with a lot of down lane movement and cover about the same amount of boards. The 2 Cruel has replaced the World Beater in my bag, but either one fills the slot nicely.

I had 2 world beaters. And the closest reaction for me is the 811C/T. About the same strength for me and same kinda motion. One of the WB was drilled the same as the 811 with a 55* 4 1/4 *50 only i had a 3/4 hole on pap on the 811.

I dont mind honest responses..   As i said i have never throw one..   I am just looking for another ball that has similar ball motion..  obviously i could throw ball X and get a similar ball drilled up and its going to be totally different..

That's the thing though unless you throw a wb you won't know what a similar reaction is for you.
