My brother can hook a house ball out to the 1st board and all the way back to the left gutter by throwing the ball with his middle finger in the thumb hole. It really is condition specific.
I'd say Xxcel hands down. The Xxxcel will often burn out, and my One was drilled so tame that my Urethane Gyro made it look like a spare ball. The Xxcel I can roll palm up with low revs swing it out over the second arrow, and ignoring my release it revs up on it's own and turns back to crush the pocket.
