Can't decide between Pain v. Toxic
« on: December 03, 2006, 10:38:42 AM »
I need a new ball, as my RG Fuel is burned out.  I liked the ball, but its kinda unpredictable.  I was gonna go to just an reactive like the Pain, but I also use a Vortex 2 and it seems to hook too much for me and I never really liked it that much.  Now with the Toxic, i'm curious about the pearl ball.  I like that it'll go longer and still come in hard.  Just can't seem to decide.

Toxic definitely goes longer than the one and yet still comes harder on the backend.  I think the Toxic is twice the ball for medium patterns.

black widow with the skid flip drill is awesome if you have some dry.

Well you have 3 balls to really choose from.  The DOOM, PAIN and TOXIC.  

Doom is great for medium oil and is an awesome balls.  It is very controllable for a pearl reactive.   The carry from this ball is just plain sick!  Carry's the world.  Now on carry down this ball doesn't fair well.  However not many pearls can do well on carry down.

The PAIN is an awesome ball for med to heavy oil.  This ball is smooth off the break point.  It's a really great ball for those tough lane conditions that have a decent amount of oil.  This is another ball that carry's the world.  It seems as though the RAW HAMMER series are some of the best balls for knocking down pins.  They don't seem to hit too hard.  I don't get many 9 pins from the DOOM or PAIN.  

The TOXIC is supposed to be the step up from the DOOM.  Basically a stronger version of it.  I have never seen a TOXIC rolled.  So I can't really comment too much on this ball.

I hope this helps you out bud.
