Looking to get one of this balls,as both balls are for medium to heavy oil, can anyone explain what are the differences between the balls ? Are they really that lane specific ? or can we play them on different lane condition without doing much to the coverstock ? Thanks...

"Road is longer and stronger." This is interesting...my kind of ball
Is it versatile ? or lane specific ? Thanks

The ball numbers are the same on the core, so the only differene is the coverstocks, but they make a big difference. The Road Hawg absorbs oil at a MUCH faster rate than the Hawg Wild. This means that there is an increased amount of hook in the ball.

I have the Road Hawg, pics and videos in profile. I love mine. I use it on anything from medium, to heavy (when i see it). As long as you can make adjustments with your release, speed, and where you stand, this ball is playable on almost anything with med oil/.

My Road Hawg is for havier oil, and longer fresh patterns.
It sets up earlier and has a strong long hard arc, but never over reacts,,, its incredible in ehavier oil.

My Hawg Wild on the other hand has great length and a sharper back end, for medium to oiy shots. I use it when my road Hawg is hooking up to early as the back ends dry.
