I have recently picked up three of these balls (Hero, Mega Idol, Super Hero) to give them a try. I have thrown nothing but Brunswick for the past 2 years and just wanted to try something new (kind of wish I would have tried Track). After one week of using the Hero and Mega Idol I am begining to think I have made a mistake and should have kept using Brunswick. These balls just do not seem to do anything as far as mid lane roll or have much backend. I am pretty sure that the covers are made by Storm which would cause them to go awful long but the recovery on them are terrible. I took the polish off both of them yesterday and sanded them to if I remember 800 and will try them tonight. Any suggestions as to surface altering would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
