It depends on how you drill it and if you change the surface and how you change it.
I really like it, but like most Lm/L, its amount of hook can be surprising and hard to deal with. Most people find it suitable for medium-light to medium oil. I drilled mine on the strong side, 4x4, pin under the ring and found it too flippy for the lanes and oil I was bowling on. So, knowing the surface is 800 grit + heavy duty Legends polish, I resanded it to 800 grit and then reapplied a light dose of the Legends polish. This made it much more controllable for my medium-low ball speed. It handles medium oil and little on either side of that very well. Pins still
fly when it hits.
I liked it well enough to buy a 2nd Buzz for deep inside lines when I wanted to play a tighter, almost fall back shot. I put a Tommy Jones type of drill on it. 4" pin to PAP, with the pin about 1" from the VAL.
For me and to least one friend it acts like it has
much more flare and
much more backend than its relatively mild core gives it. Honestly, I am shocked at the amount of hook I get from it consoidering the .031" differential. That is very misleading. It acts more like a .050" diff.
I believe some poeple put too high a pin placement on this ball, given its natural length with even a low pin, like my first Buzz. This, a high pin, would give it a over/under reaction on many patterns, unless they thought to modify the surface somewhat. I think this may be why you don't see a lot of comments about it. Also it is an older ball, but not an ancient one. It's not the "latest and greatest". There were a lot of comments when it first came out.
