How did you guys like this ball and what conditions was it good on? How did it compare to the original one, which would be better for a medium house shot
-
I love mine!long and strong and fairly easy to controll on a medium wall shot.it's also been very good playing inside on a longer medium flat pattrn.

I like mine, however I have never came close to an honor score. Usually that means the ball moves to the basement, but for some reason this ball maintains a spot in my bag. My favorite pattern to use this on is when there is oil deep inside and from 15 out is burnt. I move way in and bump off the dry and ball rips out the corner pins much better than anything else I have. It has never been my first or favorite ball out of the bag, but it serves its purpose.

i have thrown both, the original One is way tamer, stable movement and very very smooth, maybe it was due the drilling because it was pin below fingers and for me that drilling doesnt move much.
the angular one is drilled pin above and left of the middle (very weak) and even with that, the ball has a very big movement even tho its stable, loved it when lanes gets drier

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment 
When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.

It a bit longer than what I expected, but in the last 3 feet before it hits the pocket, mine has this continued angular continuation that really kicks the ten pin out.. let me explain a bit more. You know when you make a shot, and after the release you sort of feeling the shot is slightly "undercooked"?... you know it going to hook towards the pocket, but chances are it's going to be a ringing six pin.. Well with the angular, I am, a lot of time, quite pleasantly surprised by the ball having a last micro second hook into the pocket. It is this last hook that takes the ten pin out.
hope that wasn't too confusing...
