Lane Masters and Lord Field Comparison/Ranking
« on: November 11, 2013, 03:28:45 AM »
For those interested in the rankings or comparisons of the current Lane Masters and Lord Field balls here's I how would rank them.  There are really no "weak" pieces in the Lord Field line with the "Burning Up" being the only exception due to it being urethane.  But do no be fooled by it being urethane, it utilizes the same Terminal Velocity weigh block that is in the "Torment" which most people have aptly named their "Benchmark Ball".  Most of the stuff is medium to medium/heavy with the Higgs Force and Big Hurt being their so-called "Oilers". Remember these rankings are based on my style and what lane surface(s) I bowl on.

If I were to rank them I would as follows from "Mildest" to Strongest":
Burning Up (Urethane)
Exodus Pearl
Pin Hacker (Excellent for THS)
Torment (Must have ball)
Jacked
Heritage (Asymmetrical)
Exodus Solid (Excellent all-around ball)
Nasty (Super smooth)
Off The Chain (Acts like an Asymmetrical)
Bad NewsJudgement (Excellent piece, I have 2 drilled and 2 NIB)
Korrupt (Asymmetrical)
Big Hurt
Exodus Iron
Higgs Force (Modern day Lane Masters Terminator, IMO)

As far as the new Lane Masters stuff, again there are no "weak" pieces.  The mildest would be for medium lane conditions and that would be the Red Diamond. 

In order I would rank these from "Mildest" to "Strongest" as follows:
Red Diamond
Perfect (Acts like an Asymmetrical, reminds of the Black Pearl Reactive)
Advantage (Asymmetrical)
Black Pearl Deep Sea
Big Bang SE

Hope this helps anyone wanting to try these offerings, any questions PM me.

Thanks Pat. I can see the ones i have fit in the line up. I would say the Exodus Solid could be a benchmark because it's really smooth.

crazy smooth

Torment looks like pretty good and seems it would be a great benchmark ball. All LF equipment Is great looking forward to trying some LM stuff here soon
