Where does the Bedlam fit?
« on: July 02, 2009, 04:10:39 AM »
Does this ball fit above or below the Rival's?  How does it compare to the Noize?  Will it handle much oil or is it more of a medium condition ball?  

Thanks for the help.

Strictly going by the information on www.columbia300.com and some word of mouth the Bedlam is above Rival series by a good amount.  Looks to be their answer for the Hyroad, in giving Columbia that medium condition strong off the spot skid/flip type ball.  As far as it being similar to the full swing, that seems a bit far off.  Full Swing is high end and better on heavier volumes, seems like it allows you to open up the lane a bit more when the Power Swing is laying off a bit.   They may have the same type of reaction on their intended volumes but the Full Swing looks much stronger.

NoseofRI has got it on the money, My full swing is my step up from my Power swing when i need a ball to rev up in the midlane but still have a great snap on heavier patterns, then my bedlam is my step down from my power swing when i need something cleaner that really moves down lane and stores energy. Both balls are alot stronger then anything I have thrown in awhile down lane but still controlled motions!! Awesome compliments to my Power Swing, spots i feel like we lacked before are now filled. awesome work by Chad and the guys at C300!!
