Volume:  20 units


Type (THS, Sport Pattern etc):  THS


 



COMMENTS





Likes:  The matte cover, coupled with the Lane #1 Hybrid Destruction core, gives this ball the more aggressive motion I was looking for on med. oily - heavier oiled lanes. Drilled Label Stacked, it hits hard. It's currently my benchmark ball.


Dislikes: None, so far.

This is early for a review as I have bowled with this ball only once so far (234 226 204 = 664, THS). Drilled stacked with pin under the ring finger(strong continuous controlled hook). This ball hits harder and carries the 10 pin better than all of my other balls (about 12). It does not provide the most hook allowing for more control. I did rough up the cover a bit to give the ball more bite. I am certain that I will have many more good sets with this ball.






Likes: Very controllable; gets the corners out.


Dislikes:

COMMENTS


Likes: This Ball was drilled STACKED ,Pin below and right of ring finger. It was a Maonster with the OOB finish, so I Polished it up. It was still hard to keep it on the right side of the headpin. So I drilled a leverage hole 1" below my VAL to take some of the thumb weight out. It still is quite aggressive, But it has a great move from deep inside line.


Dislikes: DRY FRONTS, unless you can loft it like Mr SMITH.

Likes: This ball is the hardest hitting ball I have ever experienced, great mid lane read then a wicked backend reaction, I actually roughed it up a bit just to see what I could get out of it and it was insane the amount of hook I was getting from it

Dislikes: There is nothing at all I disliked
