I have a well-used Doom that I want to retire and was hoping to find a ball in Lane 1's line to replace it.
Is the Massacre the ball? Or do I go grab an Evolution before they are gone?

havent drilled a rico ball, but i will say that the massacre is longer then the evo, like drillings they are at least 3 feet different in length with the massacre getting the nod on the back end too
I love the evo its turely a mid lane pearl, makes a strong move in the mids and continues. the CM holds and holds and then kicks left. Probably doenst help much but its all i go lol

Triggger, that sounds like the old Excaliber. (the first ones made before Columbia started making them and ruined them)

As I have stated elsewhere I never got a comp Massacre like I normally do for the new Lane 1 releases so I didn't have one to play with. SO I am gonna hve to buy one and try this....or I could plug and redrill my Agent Orange.....hmmmm
I did dill 2 AO RICO for my dad... What a pain in the @ss.. LOL
Now my Dad does love love the AO's. The first one was eatin' by the lanes so I had to drill him a second one. He loves the ball and is his #1 ball, but it was very hard to avoid the Buzzbomb core issues. RICO causes allot of Thumb weight so to get it out and avoid going negitive on the side is a real trick. LOL
Honestly I would avoid doing it on a Buzzbomb core'd ball, but I think the CSM might be a good canidate because the CSM seems to favor CG out layouts and RICO does put the CG out. I may have to try it, but I just drilled another CSM this weekend so I'll have to see what this one does first..
