apparently.....Yes it is!! I have teammates that both pulled out their Breezes on a medium/heavy shot recently and I was astounded that both of their balls hooked very easily on this condition.

I always considered the Breezes to be a light oil ball for fairly dryish conditions, but this really opened my eyes!

Whereas, from what I've seen the Brute is much closer to a Ride, in how it hooks, although it may be a tad longer on the backend.

Sorry, but Horse hockey pucks!!!!

While the Trop. Breeze and the Ride use the Reactor coverstock, which was strong 10, (TEN!!) years ago, today, with the Breeze core, it is mild, very mild. I find only the Strike King to have more length, but it also has more backend.

If the Breeze is hooking more, it is ONLY because there is very little oil, BUT enough head oil for length The extra head oil allows the much stronger Brute to clear the heads and retain SOME energy.

I guarantee if the Breeze is hooking more than the Brute, it is NOT because the Breeze is stronger but because the Brute is not quite burning up enough in the heads and the midlane.

I type this as a consistent user of the Breeze Hybrid. I use it regularly in both leagues in 2 very different houses. And practice with it in  3rd very different house, comparing it to 5 or 6 different other balls.

Have all four balls mentioned I play pretty much the same line with all the balls I find that when I misses right a little the Breeze and Brute still make it back, where as the Joy Ride washes out or bucket or check up early depending the condition. I have seen  points that was pointed out by charlest and Jesse James.
