Hello everyone,

Just wanted to know the opinions of users of Enriched Uranium.
How you drilled the ball?
When you use the ball?
The kind of ball reaction you are getting?

Hopefully some of you guys will be able to shed some more light into the ball for me. Thanks in advance.

I love mine, the only bad side is I don't use it a whole lot but when I do it's a machine.. I got to use it last week for one game and shot 243, a few weeks back I used it and threw 268.. Awesome ball.

Mine's drilled Stacked, I use it mostly when the lanes are a little to dry for the G-Force but not dry enough for the C+.

Have one pin under bridge. Good length with excellent recovery. Depending on layout, would be a good benchmark ball.

I love mine, great ball for medium speed, straight up 10 on a fresh clean house shot.

731 two weeks ago with it.

It is a great ball with a huge backend, Med/hvy house shot mine is drilled stacked with a 3" pin, I liked it so much i just bought a NIB, you won't be dissapointed.

The ball kind of has a love/hate relationship. I've seen more negative opinions about this ball than anything else Lane#1 has made, except for maybe the Cranberry. I know two guys with them and they both hated it. I might be getting one for free, so I guess I'll find out for myself. This one was originally drilled for a lefty with a ton of hand and now belongs to a right handed speed dominant guy who mostly throws down and in.

I'm neither of those.
14.5-15.5 MPH Medium Revs.

I can see why someone with high revs wouldnt like it, a real jerky reaction off the break.

And the speed dominant person probably skids it through the break point, probably many flat 10's.

I'd have to say its touchy, but if your revs/speed match up well, its a dynomite ball.

Right on the nose Megamav. I have had one for a few months now and still it's sort of touchy for me. I've had my high set in league with this ball but other days, it either jumps way too early or lopes down the lane. Your release and speed have to be consistent with this ball to score, even on a house shot.

Currently looking to get it drilled Pin on right of RF, diamond tilted left towards the 10 o clock positiong and a possible balance hole. I wanted the ball strong as my hands aren't very big and i probably don't get as much revs as you guys.

Disregard the negatives. The ball is GREAT. Just don't thow it like a turtle like MegaMav and you will be fine.

mine is drilled 5" stacked from PAP .. use it for meduim oil or heavy oil with clean backend .. this ball, out of all lane1 balls, has the biggest backend

when the lane condition is perfect for this ball, it is another story

Megamav nailed it, When i first started throwing the ball i hated it,it was very ovr/undr and speed sensative, I would have to stay up on my speed and release to keep it out of the nose, Now, It is the first ball out of my bag, It is very hard hitting, When you start leaving 8&9 pins its time to put it away

mine was pretty much over/under reaction oob
it became controllable when I hit it with green scotchbrite
to remove the shine, then polished it with 3M Rubbing Compound

I sold it after a while as there was too much overlap
with my pearl cherry bombs.
