Other – This is the most amazing ball my hands have ever touched. I picked it up in a trade and have had about 6-7 chances to use it. After my third outing I threw it on the spinner, ran 320 grit wet/dry sandpaper over it, compound, and a nice thick coat of the Secret Sauce.
The next day I took it to the lanes and shot 234 and 221 then had to run. Keep in mind my highest game is 247. This ball hits so hard and keep the pins so low it should be illegal. The first 4 times I used it I threw two 7-baggers.
But with the Secret Sauce I really saw what this ball can do. With this drilling the ball is all about length and backend, and the Sauce smoothed out the backend motion with devastating results. I was standing on 28 and throwing it up the third arrow for a down-and-in shot. Or I could stand in the same spot and throw it out to break at 10 and watch it come back to the pocket perfect. No squirliness that comes from other pearls.
Thank you Lane #1! Please bring back the C2 core!
