I threw this finely made ball for decent 760 series last night, migrated about 8 boards in but all in all it rolled fantastic the entire 3 games.

The ball is one of the truest reading balls made period, needs medium oil but lets you stay lined up with small parallel moves in every few frames.

It is in the NV series they just dropped the NV from the name. So I guess that would make it the best in the NV series. I even e-mailed them and they told me the only difference between the Complete and the Magic is the coverstock...

quote:
The Magic is better than any of the NV series, drilled mine up the other day and could not believe how well this ball carried. It got through the heads real clean and didn't over react in the mid lane and made a sharp but controlled move on the back end. I was on Pro Lanes and have really enjoyed my Pearl One on them but started with this tonight and never put it away, went 257, 221, 257 and on a 5 man 24 team league I won 2 high pot games so the lanes are not super easy. I set this one up with a 5" pin out and mb at 75 degrees and the lanes are oiled 41'.


Very nice addition Ebonite!

I think we all know that changing the coverstock can also change the reaction of any ball.

Has anybody thrown this ball that has thrown the virtual gravity or mega friction. I would like to know how it compares to these two balls.

Strongest to weakest in oil:

Mega Friction even polished is more than either pin under ring to pap 4 1/4 x 4 1/2 cg

VG pin over ring 4 1/2 x 80 degree layout mb to pap 5 1/2

Magic same layout exactly as the VG


Biggest hooking ball would be VG overall but my least favorite of all three, I got cheap so who cares though.
