Thing lives comparison?
« on: March 10, 2005, 02:26:38 AM »
I am looking at a thing lives for heavier oil patterns.  I want something to compliment my goliath, but give a different look (flippier than the heavy arciing goliath).  Is this the right choice?  How does it compare to some of the other stronger solid resin balls, such as the total annihilation, real deal, etc.?  

Thanks,

A couple of people on this site have said that it's very similar to the Ultimate Inferno, in reaction.

I have never thrown an Ultimate Inferno, but the Thing Lives is positioned to compete well with it.

Hope this helps!

Real Deal is stronger and TA is pretty close to Thing Lives, i have all 3 and then some. Also solid Uranium would be another choice all good choices are hit well take your pick from best deal you find and have fun.

I have the Ultimate, Real Deal, Thing Lives, Big Bully just saw the Big Deal thrown today.  Ultimate is good but does not flip over as hard as the Real Deal.  The Thing lives is a little more angular than the Real Deal and harder to control, at least for me.  Big Bully is drilled weaker so I can't truely compare it.  From what I saw of the Big Deal, it is REALLY angular but you have to KEEP IT IN THE OIL BIG TIME.  All of the above are good balls and leaving out the Big Deal, my Real Deal is the most consistant and seems to hit the hardest.  just my opinion, may be different for others.  Hope this helps
