Title: 400A vs Tribal
Post by: lilpossum1 on December 31, 2013, 10:53:44 AM

My dad is looking for a step down from his arson pearl when the lanes are just a bit too dry. He wants something that is long and strong. He throws 14-15 mph at the speed sensor with average hand. What are peoples opinions on these two balls? Any other suggestions?

I have the tribal, for me it goes long and makes a late move. Excellent ball for THS can use it all night without ball change.

The Tribal is too close to the Arson pearl, and it may even appear to be a step up because the Arson pearl is a smoother pearl.  The Tribal is very skid/snap, so again, it may appear to hook more.  The 400A is also fairly angular, though I'd say the Tribal is more consistent, or not as wet/dry sensitive due to the coverstock.  It's still going to be sensitive, but it has a bit more traction in oil than the 400A which makes it more controllable and predictable.  Between those two, the Tribal is the clear choice for me.
