Title: Rival / Dead Flush
Post by: mix-n-match816 on February 21, 2008, 12:27:25 AM

I purchased a Rival a few months ago to replace my Black Widow in my bag. My lineup was Raw Hammer Anger, Rival, and Black Widow Pearl. I got rid of the Black Widow Pearl recently, as its backend reaction was way too strong for what I needed - dry lanes. I replaced it in my bag with a Wrath Dead Flush, and let me tell you, it has been wonderful. My average has jumped 5 pins in the last month, and have had no problems making adjustments on my house's THS. These balls complement each other very well. WTG Columbia!

My Dead Flush is drilled a bit strong, but it definitely is weaker than my Rival. My benchmark is my Rival, and when they burn up, and I cant move in and play in the oil with my Rival, I go to my Dead Flush, which also handles the carrydown pretty well.
