Jim,

I have one, along with it's cousin the Track Xception. The professional is an amazingly strong ball for a reactive pearl. My Xception is a backend monster, just the way I had it drilled - pin up 4.5 x 4 mb The professional has a better midlane with almost as strong a backend pin down under ring 4 x 3.5 cg. It's as strong, but not quite as early was my SLASH (Vendetta Solid for you,

) drilled almost identical.

Hope this helps,

Bill

I got one for some stuff I did for a friend of mine that runs a pro shop,..
I'm drilling it for my wife,..she's a scratch bowler,..I really like the looks and the specs on the ball,...I was just wondering about the performance,..
she twirls it pretty good, so the pearl will be good for her,..thanks,..jim

I've thrown one. It's the closest thing on the market to the reaction of the Absolute Inferno and this came straight from their staffer's mouth. I think it actually recovers harder than an Absolute but they are strikingly similar. If you found a good price I'd hop on it. I love early reading pearls, on the heavier side of medium this ball can't be touched.

my professional was awesome, until about the 5th time i polished it...I would throw alot of games with it, so it would get all dull and tracked out and start grabbing to quickly, well finally i polished it and it decided not to hook anymore

anyone got any ideas on what to do to fix that...only has probably 100 games on it...I even sanded the track down to 220 and back up and it still wont move
--------------------
And Then...........

I left another 10 pin

Try sanding it to 220 and then using either Ebonite's Hook Again or a Rejuevenator machine. Then return it to its original surface preparation.

To get the oil out of my balls i soaked em in hot water about 140 degrees with a squirt of dawn and scrubbed it and let it sit in the hot water and the oil came out the ball.i threw it today and the backend and hook of my dangerzone is amazing, so maybe try it.

Super rolling ball,..this is a good one. I drilled my wife 3 new balls, and we went to practice Sunday morning,..she wouldn't put this one down,..we don't keep score,..but she had 2 nine baggers,...she loves the length,..and hit.
The other two balls got very little play...

I know someone has one He's got one 300, 299 and averaging 240's so far with it.

Honestly I got a lot of balls. No NOT BOWLING BALLS!

my professional is the best ball ever... PERIOD

at the california singles classic tournament... first 3 games out the gate 279, 267, 290 = 836

then the last day of matchplay was 9 games... the first 6 games were insane.... 245, 290, 279 = 814 , 290, 279, 257 = 826 and i won the tournament

then this summer i dropped weight to 15 lbs from 16 and had a 16 set aside for my dad in teh shop, but since i gave him some of my old 16 stuff (strike zone, Zone Classic, and Absolute inferno) he didnt want it anymore, and so i traded the 16 for a 15 on this past monday

drilled it exactly as my 16 lb. professional... right out of the gate with it once again at league on monday night 279, 258, 267 = 804 (my 13th 800)

this ball is a beast and i am going to be looking into getting more hopefully and stashing em
