Angular One and heavy oil
« on: December 18, 2006, 06:38:32 AM »
I am thinking of purchasing an Angular One and bringing it down to 1000 or 500 Abralon to use on heavier oil patterns. I have spoken with a few people on here in PM's and they all agree it should work. Has anyone tried this yet? If so, what was your results? Thanks.

I haven't tried it, but watched the promotional cd from ebonite about the angular one.  At 500 grit abralon, it outhooked every other ball tested, including the awesome hook, the one series balls, etc.  With the appropriate surface/layout, I think it would work very well.

I am currently using one on a flood. Polished, it was useless. I took it to about 1200-1500 and it is very useable. It is not the hook monster for me as most say it is, but I can stand 25, target 12 and clear the deck. The most impressive thing about this ball for me is the hit and carry. While most others in our house this are plagued with splits and 10 pins (we have terrible kick boards) I am carrying very very well. I am able to go deep if necessary and the ball makes the turn, but I cannot carry from there. So, the ball is so versatile that i can play in or follow the Norm Duke shot without a cover change. Sweet ball. To reitterate, for me it is not the hooker it was cracked up to be, but it'll play anywhere I want it to.

Should work well at 1000,  i would start at 500 and bring it up to 1000.

using out of box on more oil than usual house shot and it works great..

the second at 1000.00 is to much for everything local...played it on shark and scorpion this week and loved the reaction...

I'm sure this ball would work just fine on heavy oil if the cover is brought down.
