Does anybody know how these 2 compare. Are they close in reaction if both were drilled the same? With the pin above the bridge and the CG swung about 2" or so? I've got a Psycho that I am getting drilled now as a ball to use when the lanes dry out a bit and play without moving in too much. I was thinking of getting a Playmaker as a ball that I can use to give me a skid snap look and I didn't want to have any overlap with the Psycho. If anyone has any thoughts on this, I appreciate your help.

Thanks for the info. That's exactly what I was thinking too. I just didn't want to get 2 balls that had the same look.

grizfan, I have both of the balls you mentioned, with similar drillings.  Pin over the fingers on the center line, and the cg in the palm for the Playmaker, and pin over the fingers on the center line and cg about 1" to the right of grip center for the Psycho.  The Playmaker, even though it is a pearl, reacts more like a polished solid for me.  As kidjete said, it is very responsive to friction, so once the heads begin to dry out, the Playmaker is going to take off.  I put some polish on top of the OOB finish for my Psycho.  With this surface, the ball revs up, but still gets down the lane and gives me a very strong arc.  My two favorite occasions to use the Psycho is when there is fresh oil and strong backends, as the earlier roll helps smooth out the transition from wet to dry for me.  I also use it when the lanes are a little tight, the earlier roll helps me to not blow past my break point, and it has enough energy to still turn the corner for me.  As for using the ball when they dry out, I'm not sure that is the ball you should go with.  Unless you have a ton of ball speed, that ball will be a monster on dry.

My Psycho is also pin up, but when the track dries out, I lose my carry with that ball.  Generally speaking, when the heads begin to dry, you don't want to go with an earlier rolling ball like the Psycho, as it will tend to burn up and hit the pocket DOA.  I currently bowl in a league with 5 man teams, and by the 3rd game, the heads are pretty gone.  I typically go with one of two moves.  I have a Twisted Fury Destruction that gets down the lane for me, and turns the corner hard under those conditions, or I play more up the outside with a Razyr.  Those are just 2 options that work for me, your game might be different.  The final decision is up to you, but I believe I have to agree with kidjete and say that I'm not sure the Psycho will be the answer to your 3rd game woes.  It is still a pretty aggressive piece.  If I knew a bit more about your game, I might be able to better help out.
