Hey whats up matt. I have had both of them. I have found that the pin slasher is more of a rolly/arc ball. I have had something like 5 or 6 gamebreakers, and they all a lot cleaner through the heads, with a little more jumpy motion.

Thanks for the reponses I am picking up a pinslasher next week and am looking for it to be somewhat more controllable than the gamebreaker.  I am obviously going to have to look at the drilling to establish what will work best.  The Gamebreaker I have with the pin so high up gave me a look that was overly jumpy.  Zack, be thinking of a layout for the Pin Slasher if you don't mind.  I also have a Toxic drilled pin above bridge with the cg just slightly right so the Pin Slasher we have options on.

alright, here's my breakdown.

gamebreaker:  5 1/4 pin to pap, puts pin above bridge, cg out about 45*, weight hole on axis.  this ball is very controllable.  it's clean through the heads and midlane, and nice archy backend motion.  i use this when the lanes are very flat, or tough as nails.

pinslasher:  5 1/8 pin to pap, puts pin below bridge, cg about 60*, weight hole about 2 " down my VAL.  this ball has slowly but surely became my benchmark.  it's very strong, midlane and downlane.  The ball will not clear the heads if they're burnt up, but if i have a little swing room, you can't beat me.  this piece is my goto on all THS'.

Point of Information:

Is the PinSlasher a pearl, a pearl/solid combo or a solid?
I know the GB is a solid.
