Title: Help with the reaction of The Professional
Post by: DP3 on May 30, 2005, 11:44:24 AM

Hey Columbia Gurus, I have access to getting some of the Professionals for about $150-160bucks.  I have an upcoming major scratch tournament on the 5th and I am in desperate need of equipment, since I gave away all of my 16lbers and anything that just didn't feel good in my hands last week.  All I have now that I'm working with is a Slash, Revmaster, and Ricochet Rebound.

I am very interested in the Professional but my question is, can you mimmick the reaction of a professional with anything else in the Columbia line that's any cheaper?  I can get some unbelievable deals on the mid-priced line of Columbia and Track equipment and I plan on drilling 2 or 3 balls before this weekend but I do not want to overspend if I do not have to.  I know the Professional is a very strong Pearl but is there anything else that yeilds the reaction of a professional in the past(Throttle Series?) or present line?  Or is this ball just that unique?  And help would be appreciated.

w/your hand....anything other than a flipside "panic" is a waste of money....

would get (3) of those for same money and just drill up differently or different surface(s).....

too be honest.....anything else is actually probably..."detrimental"...to your style of play....just my 2 cents....
