The Xtreme Damage is one.
One of the LM/L reps, I think Tony Martin, said if you liked the YB, you should like the XD. I have not tried it myself.
 
Strictly from appearances, the core shape of the Solid Strike and the Sure Strike seem very similar to the Yeah Baby core. I have the Sure Strike and I like it a lot.

The Extreme Damage has the same core as charlest noted.  I'm not exactly sure who made the other ball. 

 

The Strike series line of balls also use the same core as the Yeah Baby but has the filler type material around the core with a thinner shell and results in RG numbers that are higher.  Not sure how much the RG diff is impacted right off hand.

Jeff and others are correct.

 

The Impact core has been used in the following core and coverstock only (2-piece) balls: Yeah Baby, Masterpiece and Xtreme Damage.

 

The 3-piece balls (core, filler and coverstock) using the Impact core: Counter Strike, Solid Strike, Sure Strike

 

Xtreme Damage: Min RG = 2.570, Max RG = 2.620, Differential RG = 0.050

Yeah Baby: Min RG = 2.570, Max RG = 2.620, Differential RG = 0.050

Masterpiece: Min RG = 2.571, Max RG = 2.622, Differential RG = 0.051

 

Counter Strike: Min RG = 2.586, Max RG = 2.626, Differential RG = 0.040

Solid Strike: Min RG = 2.584, Max RG = 2.626, Differential RG = 0.042

Sure Strike: Min RG = 2.585, Max RG = 2.625, Differential RG = 0.040

 

These are from old LM/L catalogs I have lying around.

The Extreme Impact also appears to have used the same or close to the same core. Interesting enough, the other Impact-series balls (Massive Impact, Deep Impact and Awesome Impact) used different cores. (This was before I was more than superficially aware of Lane Masters products.)

Many thanks guys for the info.

I have the masterpiece but there is big difference with the YB due to coverstock.

I think that the best thing is the extreme damage palmer fallgren but it's almost impossible to find one nib, on the other side the next xtreme damage solid can be a good things (i Think).
