Frankly, no.  What may be benchmark for you can be way different for the next guy, mostly depending on the bowler and conditions faced. 

When I think "benchmark" I think of a ball that I should have with me every time I bowl at a specific center due to the likelihood of it having a great reaction.  Since I bowl at two different centers weekly, sometimes three, it's usually a different choice for one place than the other. 

I'd suggest to everyone that they become very familiar with their arsenal, and that same arsenal at various surfaces, so if they get "lost" with one ball, they can grab the next one and know pretty closely what kind of move to make (if needed at all)  and not waste 5 frames trying to get lined up...

I asked, because over the years it seems that when someone does a ball review and states it's a benchmark ball, some people think it is too after reading/watching ball reviews. Then after throwing it at their home center, they realize it's not.

Over the weekend, one of the buyers of my used equipment asked if the hyroad is a good benchmark ball. I told him it was great for me. I couldn't put a stamp on it when he ask if it'll be good for him. He throw the ball with very very high tilt - spinner. I don't even now how his ball reaction would be if he kept the same layout I have on the ball.

It may be the manufacturers intent to make a ball that should work for a wide variety of people on a wide variety of conditions, and so they may call it a benchmark ball because of that.  That doesn't mean it will be a benchmark ball for you.
