the Backyard is good not for fresh but more for second shift conditions and blended conditions.

The original bully is good for controling fresh backends.

I had the original Bully and did not like it. It just roller to early for my liking. I also have a Backyad Bully (blem) and I love it.. It goes real long and snaps really hard. Its a great ball in my opinion. Its helped me score good numbers at one house in our traveling league..

I have all three (thanks Shawn and Chad at C300), just like the above guys, the Bully is a little smoother (I'm gonna shine this ball), doesn't read the dry as quick as Big Bully.

Big Bully is really nice on fairly heavy oil, have used it in a regional, worked pretty well.

Backyard has a ton of back ends when they are clean.  This ball doesn't like carry down too much.  Have seen a couple guys throw this ball scotch brited, still more length than the other two, sharper break point, but handles a little more oil/carry down pretty well.

If you are only going to have two, get the Backyard, it is the most different than the Big.  Big and Orig Bully may be too close for some to justify having both.

Hope this helps ya....

So the Big for heavy oil and the Backyard for medium to heavy ?

Here's a thought...  I have both the Big and just drilled the Backyard.  

If your house conditions are fresh then carry down, start with the Backyard and switch to the Big when it carries down.

If your house conditions are fresh then burn up, start with the big and when they burn up switch to the Backyard.

Because I think either of these balls are great on the fresh but what the transition does should affect what you switch to.  Make sense?
