From what I've read of other people's reactions with it, it isn't the strongest as far as hook is concerned, it apparently just handles a ton of oil with the normal LM reaction.

Notice this isn't from experience.  Was going to buy one used from a member here, but they apparently dropped off of the planet.  But someone else will come along and put in their two pennies worth, just give them a bit of time.
The Gathering 2014 is near.  July 25-27 in Winston Salem, NC @ Creekside lanes.

If you check out www.bowlingballmall.com the comment on the ball is from Ann-Marie-Duggan herself stating that it is stronger than the Terminator.

In my opinion, the Conquerer I have which was drilled up very similarily to the Terminator I had, started up much later, whereas the Terminator wanted to jump a little earlier.  Both performed admirably on the heavier oiled conditions.

Misconception #1 (no offense intended educational only):

It's no longer 1980. The amount of hook is no longer related to the amount of oil a ball can handle. The best oiler are rarely the biggest hookers.

Yes, AFAIHL, the Conqueror is, currently, the bal that can handle the largest amount of oil, from the Lanemasters selection, not necessarily with the stock surface.

Misconception #2:

The Conqueror is only a limited availability ball with a very small run of 500 balls. The Terminator is the regular ball that handles the most oil. A light sanding allows it to handle about as much oil as most people will ever see. It comes polished to allow the largest amount of usability.

My Big Bang is stronger or should I say can handle more oil than my Conquerer and Terminator.
