How much ball is the Emerald Buzzsaw?
« on: August 30, 2003, 03:16:58 AM »
I mentioned on another post in the miscellaneous section, that I am looking for a ball to fit between my Inferno and Sonic X.  Like a lot of people I've been thinking of trying a Lane 1 ball for sometime, aside from my XXXL, that is.  For those that have more experience with this company, would the Emerald Buzzsaw be a good fit, or might it be a little too close to my Infero, assuming they would be drilled similarly.  Thanks for the help.

Very good ball and will probably fit where you need it to.

The Inferno has a much lower RG and a much more reactive cover. This will translate into more hook and overall reaction.

I have a 4x4 Emerald and a 5-1/2 x 4 Inferno and the Emerald has a more ven and arcing reaction to it while the Inferno is definitely skid/snap and hooks quite a bit more.

I understand the desire to TRY LANE 1 balls ..I've been there/done that!

I have the EMERALD GREEN .. picked one up when they first started advertising it. It is a GOOD ball .. the question in my mind .. is it worth the extra bucks? I'd have to answer that question .. NO!. There are less expensive balls (I own them) that will do an equal if not better job. The STORM-CHARGE will do great and if you want excellent results for less money try getting a PREDATOR (I like the RED SPARKLE).

This is a FORUM where everyone has an opinion .. most of us have to LEARN THROUGH OUR MISTAKES! Lots of luck!
