It's an AMAZING ball.  Just took the place of my Hybrid, for now, as first out of the bag.

Just got it punched out today by Danny Lim at Fountain Bowl, I'll be practicing with it tonite or using next nite in league, either way I'll get up a review and let you guys know how it rolls.

The Fountain Bowl in Fountain Valley, CA. It's where they had the PBA Orange County Classic back in December.

I've seen the vids at the lane#1 site but I haven'
t actually seen anyone roll a uranium buzzsaw, what are it's best characteristics?

Before I post a full review I'll need to get more games with this ball and on different conditions which would be my THS and tournaments. Anyway, I rolled my first games in practice and after I threw the first one, I said to myself this ball is a beast. The backend recovery with the uranium is insane, it has more than the HDB, different ball of course, but it is still amazing.

I started out throwing from 20 to 10, ball goes crooklyn, 25-12 balls goes crooklyn again, finally go 30 to 12 and I start to get lined up. When I tried the ball in league I didn't shoot that great but that was the case too with the hybrid for the first couple of nights. In league I stood 35 to 17 out to 5 at times and this ball still came back. Jeez, how many boards can this ball cover? I did notice that it can be release and speed sensitive. What really impressed me the most about the uranium was the true diamond core, that's why I like symmetrical cores because of the sweet smooth roll, this is by far the best rolling ball I have ever owned. When I get lined up right with the uranium my HDB might have to take a back seat.

Now let's talk about hit. Let's make it easy, it hits like a freakin freight train. I've thrown skid/snap balls before but the uranium barrels into the pocket with it's stored energy like no other.
