I have both of these and can't decide which one to drill for a med/light to light oil ball? Has anybody had these two balls and what did you think of them? I was wanting a Buzz, but not wanting to pay the $150 at bowlingballmall.com cause I buy directly from Lane Masters! Thanks in advance for the help!

Either one will work well depending on how you prep the surface. The way mine are prepped the BRB goes a bit farther before it makes the move - but ultimately it's going to depend on how you roll the ball.

The WCR is a lot more rolly (mostly because of the core shape, I believe) and handles slightly more oil because of that, as near as I can tell. If you really want to handle thelighter side of medium, I'd go with the BRB, as it normally gets lots of length, as well as a sharper backend.

I'd be inclined to suggest the BRB with around a 5" pin to PAP (for 300 frpm rate or higher) and placing the pin over the area of the bridge. It shoudl still tickle that medium oil range, but be much better for lighter than mediums than the WCR.

Neither has much flare so be careful about using too long a pin to PAP.

Thanks guys for the replies and I'll let you know the results! I bowl on a house that the shot just blows open about the middle of the second game and you have to make a huge move inside and I wanted to still be able to turn the corner!
