I normally throw 16 lb equipment but when the columbia 300 wicked encounter came out last year the guy in the local pro shop had a 15 in stock and decided to go with it. Well I have had tons of trouble with over/under reaction. If I move outside to around the 5 board it consistently hits the pocket but leaves numerous 7 10 splits and solid 7s and 10s. If I straighten my shot out it goes right through the breakpoint. I'm not sure about my PAP as the local proshop guy gets defensive when you ask questions. I'm a Speed dominant (18 to 19) average revs (just guessing 250 to 300). The original layout had a 5 to 6 inch pin with the pin about 3" right of the ring finger and the MB kicked out even further to the right. I took the ball to another guy and he basically pulled the MB toward the thumb and its better than it was but still pretty much the same. Anyway, a lower speed teammate used it loved it and is going to buy it from me.
I'm looking for a heavy oil ball I can get drilled pin down to use on a fresh heavy(as wet as i have ever seen) THS 41' pattern on synthetic lanes. I have an old 16 C300 action packed that is pin down and a Frantic that both work very well for me after about the first game. I'm normally a C300 fan but am open to suggestions. Thanks ahead of time sorry I don't have more accurate stats.
