I like the colors. Saw the ball in action last week and it looked great. I think most of the problems for most with the first two Jigsaws was there wasn't enough oil for the ball.

Once I shinned mine up it rolled amazing. Cleared the heads much easier and was sick on the backend. I saw very few people that added any polish to theirs or made any surface adjustments. It seems any more for most people if it doesn't do amazing on the first two shots out of the box then it is a dud.

Have to say I loved mine.

the video to me shows to much overlap with the corner to have both in the bag. i loved my jigsaw and my corner but will be passing on the trap.

This ball is pretty wild in the back end.  Very very hard move, almost too hard.

Colors are a bit much for me though, lol

I think the colors are awesome and attractive. I hate bright colors and for some reason I really like the look of this ball when I throw it. I guess the swirl really lets me know when I don't get it off my hand great.

The biggest thing people notice is the direction change at my center. Where the corner and original Jigsaw hook early, a lot bowlers here just want to see sharp turn on the backend and that's what I am getting with this ball.

Bowled on shark tonight during practice and it gave my a stronger backend motion than my gravity shift and virtual energy with the same layout (my favorite assym. layout). Allowed me to explore different angles that I haven't been able to play before

Jeremy, I have to say I will be watching you more often in order to compare the balls.  Even though I bowl nothing like you at least I can kinda see the difference in ball reaction.  So, what I''''m seeing is the Trap is more ball in the backend and a few more boards overall than the Corner?  I''''m thinking the Corner should actually be more overall but it''''s not in the video because it''''s on a house shot.  And the Plague is the strongest ball in the line now?
