Hey everyone,

I've been thinking about buying this ball for quite some time now, and now that i have enough money, i might just pull the trigger.

I wanted this to be my HEAVY OIL ball. Right now i have a Hammer Switch Blade for MEDIUM and Track Desert Heat for LIGHT/DRY.

I know the MaX will definetly fit over the Switch Blade, but is it a good HEAVY OIL ball? What kind of a strong layout could i put on this ball with my specs? PAP = 5 OVER 1/4 UP

I don't really have a preference of the reaction i get out of it, as long as it will be good for a normal HEAVY OIL shot.

Thanks

uhh, yea right, lol

But anyways, so i would need to drill this strong, and adjust the surface? So maybe i can play a slight down and in shot, and if that's so, then it's fine with me, lol

If you need a C300 product for floods, I'd try a Power Driver Sanded before an Action Max. I've got a Max and wouldn't consider this an "oiler" unless you've got a little softer ball speed or some squeaky fresh backends to help the coverstock recover from the front portion of the lane. The Power Drive Sanded will afford you a stronger ball reaction in floods than an Action max and leave a couple of extra dollars in your pockets for pot games and brackets.

thanks for the help 230, but if i use the MAX on a normal heavy oil shot with clean backends, and not a flood, then will it be alright?

IMHO, yes.

The Max is a ball for heavier conditions, but, I think the Vaccine coverstock on the Power Drive Sanded might be a little better suited for floods.

Features Mallet core with extension arms featuring a top flip block. Dense core body - featuring dense energy flip blocks.
Benefits
The Mallet core, which debuted in the Bully line of high performance balls has been tweaked to provide a slightly lower RG than the version used in the Power Drive and will create the strongest mid-lane motion in the Drive price point. Core body concentrates the weight near the center core giving you faster revving action. The flip-blocks add flare potential for more overall hook.
CoverStock Power Drive Sanded Action Max
Features

Benefits

According to C300's ball comparison feature on their website, it seems to contradict what I've stated. I guess you'll have to get someone that has thrown both of the balls, back to back, to get the whole truth.
