Where does the Megaton fit??
« on: February 08, 2006, 02:53:00 PM »
I was lucky enough to get my hands on a Megaton with a 3 1/4 inch pin about 3 oz of top weight.

I didn't get the Dirty Bomb or the Hybrid Dirty Bomb so I don't know how any of the Dirty Bombs reacted.

I have the SU, EU, Tsunami, H2O currently in my bag and want to fill the gap between the SU and the Tsunami with the Megaton if possible.  I just redrilled my EU nd want to work with it some more, but I need more of the first ball out of the bag ball.

Any recommendations on drilling the Megaton and possible reaction?

Thank you.

i drilled mine tonight and choose a stacked drilling..4 x 4 was a nice smooth arc to the pocket...i would say its very close to the dirty bomb for reaction etc..

Yeah Nic,

Keep the Megaton NIB and buy/drill the Hybrid Dirty Bomb.

Thank you Scottie and Roy for your response.

Why drill a Hybrid Dirty Bomb and not the Megaton Roy?

I'm looking for something that is not skid flippy like the EU for a first ball out of the bag.  I know that Lane 1 bowling balls are not skid flippy like some of the other ball manufactuers, but thats one reason I throw Lane 1.  Just so happens that the EU is very close to a strong skid flippy ball and not the best ball for first ball out of the bag.

Thanks again.

It's a rare ball and there are some saws that are near the reaction you want from a Hybrid Megaton.
