If you are really interested, I have a single drill Throttle-R with about 15 games. PM me.

I have a throttle-r, and I now love the ball.  When I first got it, this thing didn't move.  It would just slide all the way down the lane, and I bowl on a light to med oil pattern.  Once I got a track on it, it was a different story.  It gets through the heads nicely, with a good read on the midlane, then flies toward the pocket in the back.  The carry is great.  I have well over 100 games on it, and I'm not leaving the Columbia 10 pin that I normally see once I get a number of games on the ball.  I definitely recommend this ball, but give it time to develop a track.

I believe this ball is a skid slurve ball in the best of the best breed.

See X factor as closest competitor.

There is no snap and no corner pin.  May be surface prep!
