Cherry Bomb & Carry Down
« on: November 11, 2003, 04:36:39 AM »
I'm thinking of getting a Cherry Bomb,
and am wondering how it handles the
carry down oil. Any thoughts or comments
would be helpful.Thanks in advance.

In my experience with a Cherry bomb and from watching others, is that it does not handle carrydown real well.  I would consider a Black Cherry bomb, or wait for a new gold Nugget.  My reasoning is that though the Cherry Bomb is a monster on the fresh, it will squirt on carrydown purely because of the cover.

The gold nugget could be a little too strong(at least from what I have heard from the testers), but with its core and cover it will give you more midlane and a more pronounced move to the hole.  

I would try a Black Cherry Bomb or wait a couple weeks to hear some input on the Gold.

Good Luck

I would agree with snakes.  Pearls aren't normally good on carrydown.  If you have enough oil, get the Black Cherry Bomb.  The Golden Nugget might be a good choice, but very few people have thrown it.

Isn't the new ball a pearl also?

I assume the Gold Nugget is a pearl. I have not seen one in person.  

The answer is yes they are both pearls.

One will be a pearl particle(Gold Nugget) and the Cherry is a reactive pearl. There is a difference.  The Gold will start up earlier and will be harder off the breakpoint.

When you through the two together, you can really see a difference.

I heard that there is a 3% particle load in the Gold.

Carrydown with Cherry Bomb, pull out the Black Cherry and all will be well!! Basically if you can get both and you'll be set!

what is the difference between reactions of the black cherry and the gold nugget?, does one outhook the other with a similar drill?
