gravity shift vs bite
« on: April 06, 2008, 08:16:20 AM »
I am debating between these 2 balls. I want something earlier than my BWP and stronger on the back end. BWP is drilled layout #1 on the chart (skid/flip). Please ball reviews help me out, i can't decide and it's killing me .

I'm a stroker with 15-17 mph ball speed.

Thanks.

Not to jump in for something totally different but I would look at the Cell it is much better then either of these balls.

How did you drill it? If you went strong I have found those tend to be tough balls.

If you like the reaction of the BW Pearl, you will certainly like the
BW Bite.

Drilled similar the Bite should start up sooner than the Gravity.

from what I've seen from others and throwing both myself the gravity is a stronger ball and it will not (what that commonly used word for ebonite made covers) die out at the first hint of surface change. I'm sure ill get all kind of BS from people all covers die out it seems from what I've seen the widows go really quick

How, on God's green earth, can you compare ONLY the surface finishes when the coverstocks are completely different, not to mention the cores ??????????????????????????????
