Sorry I am not into brunswick.

I meant to type creature pearl. I at first thought a psycho, and after seing a bunch of them they look really good on the lanes, but i think that is a stronger ball than I am seeing, especially with me throwing it.

I am looking for a nice fit in bewteen, Street rod sounds nice, but haven't heard anything about it, what ball is the core from? I am highly interested in T-road pearl, but I see its diff is pretty darn high and having a strong cover on it, it seems it will overlap a good deal wiht the Cell pearl unless drilled really weak.

I have a creature solid, and I don't match up very well with that ball either, it is drilled in a way I wouldn't drill it. I want to give it to a senior that need to drop down to a 15lb ball. The creature pearl could be a winner with a drill I am accustomed to.

Weak drilled Tantrum anybody???

The Street Rod Pearl would seem okay to me in that spot.  I'm a bit unsure as to how strong the Street Rods really are because they're supposed to be for lighter medium patterns but the videos tell a different story by how much lane they're covering.  I would like to say the solid is a medium oil ball at best, and the pearl is a light oil ball, meaning the condition in the videos is a drier house shot.  That said, I think a polished Street Rod Solid is a safe bet.

I have the street rods and the creature pearl. The cover on the street rod(solid or pearl) is stronger than the creature pearl, but the core on the creature is somewhat stronger. Creature pearl is a strong arc while street rod is more skid/flip.
The vibes are probably as strong or stronger than both.
Hope this helps.

ALthough i said I wasn't into brunswick. I amn changing my mind after taking a look at the Swarm. I believe that is the ball I am going to get. I had a friend who had a rampage that I always liked reaction wise.

With its 400 grit with high polish OOB, that gives alot of room to go up if it were stronger than expected. And I get to try out a powerkoil cover. And hap[pens to be right around the price I was looking to spend.

They have the Reactor coverstock, just like the Spit Fire and the Tropical Storm.  From what I've seen, the Street Rod Pearl fits right in-between those two basically, and the solid obviously can handle a little more oil and is smoother, but actually won't hook quite as much on lighter conditions as the pearl since the pearl version retains energy better downlane.
