Video of mission 2.0 with a few shots of mission near the end.
 
So I have won 2 ebonite balls off there facebook page and dont know what to get.
 
Im pretty sure i'm going to get a 250k. Cant decide if I want to get a Vital Energy or go for another in the mission line.
 
 
 
Line up right now is....
Mission (drilled to go longer but still strong on the back end)
Mission 2.0 (drilled really weak but still rather strong)
Freeze (Solid medium oil ball)
Recon (weak)
Plastic ball

Question 2.... Which mission will handle oil the best?
 
I dont have a ball that I feel is a true "Oiler" with the drillings on my missions being on the weaker sides so there useable in my every day house. But since these are free and im wanting to go bowl in a few tournaments I feel I should get a ball that would be a true heavy oil ball, what would you consider the strongest ebonite ball?

get two 250k's, drill one strong and dull it, drill the other weak and polish it

The only things that are truly permanent are death and Sharpies.

I believe when you lower your expectations, you only increase your chances xD

I just dont want any of them to overlap that much....
 
Heres what I've contemplated doing
 
 New mission that will be the strongest ball I have
 
Mission I have currently keep polished
Mission 2.0 I have now polish it up
 
Where to put another one that wont overlap?

pure oil = Vital Sign (super strong cover)
 
kinda heavy = Mission $250k (good overall motion)
 
medium oil = Vital Energy (great off the spot angle)

Which ever two I could get the most money for reselling for something else or a trade. If it included the EBI umbrella of Track and Hammer then that would be a different story. Maybe a 718A and a 916AT


Be good, or be good at it.

No offense intended in saying this, but my original Mission and my Game On perform so good, that I wouldn't trade either of them for any Track ball. I'm not saying that Track balls are not good, just saying that I couldn't ask for better results than I am getting from the Mission and Game On.
