That this ball will work on?  I have tried three bowling centers at different times of the day and this ball just hooks off the chart (lane). Unuseable in box condition except maybe on longer heaviy oil.

This is not a slam against the ball.

I took the Red Death out while pot bowling on a fresh house shot go the ball a little right, about 1/2 board and the ball recoverd crushed the pocket and left the 4 pin.  That was the only time I was able to keep the ball on the right side of the pocket.

Yes I can re-drill the ball weaker, its currently drilled 4 stacked.  But I won't.

Yes I can adjuct the surface and I will eventually, but only after I get about 10-15 games on it to see if it tones down on its own.  I know I can use 4000 Ablaron, polish, compound and various other products, but because I track medium low, I expect the ball to tame on its own through use during pracatice.  If not I will probably start with 4000 Ablaron, water, high speed on a spinner.

This ball reads the back end much stronger then the Agent Orange.  The back end rating of 120 of 125 is much more accurate in my opinion then the back end rating of other balls such as the Dynamo and especially the Buzzbomb.

70 x 5.5 x 30 drilling, late break point shape, and that is exactly what I got out of this peice, it is longer the any solid I have but has an easy push down lane with a remarkable hard change of direction for a solid, Ive left it in box condtion, although it has developed a nice sheen to it, other then short oil, I can throw this on just about anything

by compaison I drilled the Blue death 70 x 5.5 x 35  not much of a diffeence but the two balls are totally different lines, the BD likes the outside on fresh and tears up a broken down shot, gets way better on the shot as the night breaks it down

RD has been my go to ball all league, the reaction and hit gets some heads turning, I will probably take the cover back to 2k abralon and use it for the soup tho as the BD has proven its worth on the fresh shot

Doug,

The agent Orange was/is a really good ball, the Buzzbomb did not work for me at all and the Dynamo which was suppose to handle a lot of oil and hook a ton was a small let down for me.

But the Red Death is something special imo.  I have not found a condition I can throw the Red Death on and score well.  But only because that ball is so strong.  Handles oil very well and the ball does not roll out or quit.  I will throw it again tomorrow in practice and along side the Mega Friction drilled the same.

At practice today a bowler I bowl with brought his Red Death to practice and his Red Death is polished.  He is a lefty and was playing deeper then I have ever seen a lefty play just trying to keep the ball on the left side of the pins.  The ball never quit for him either but the ball was too much even polished.

After throwing it tomorrow if I can''t tame it down a little, I''ll try 2000 Abalron and maybe eventually 4000 Ablaron.

I track a little low and my ball speed is about 18, so to see the reaction of this impresses me even more.

Thanks for reading,

I have a Red Death, but haven't drilled it yet. Plan to drill it hopefully within the next 1 1/2 to 2 weeks if not sooner.
