BTM mystery balls
« on: July 31, 2018, 04:00:00 PM »
Not the most important thing in the world but there is a couple of balls implied by BTM reviews that I wish I knew.  The first is this "This pattern gives us 48 feet of skid with a plastic ball and 23 feet of skid with our most aggressive particle ball."  But they then don't list.  My guesses is its a Tombstone, Riptide or Midnight Scorcher.

Also for the AMF Pure they give it a 58 hook rating and then say this, "The last time a ball earned this (high) hook rating was 2006." (more than decade earlier but don't list)  Was thinking maybe they gave to one of the EPX balls but they came out in 2005.  Not that important but just curious and bored to be honest.

Sweet thanks for the info.  Will have to check that ball out for giggles.

(edit: based on reply after this explains why heard good things about several MoRich balls but not that one).

Strongly disagree with the Awesome Revs sucking. Heavy rolling and predictable! I LOVE Pearl Particle Bowling balls. I still use my Awesome Revs. Mostly because when I adjust the cover, that adjustment lasts so much longer than my newer equipment and it does not suck up the oil like my newer equipment. Harder particles???

It does look like Alien Vomit rolling down the lane though!(Yellow, Red, Blue)
