Black Widow or Infinite One
« on: October 12, 2006, 01:20:24 PM »
Any idea whether a Black Widow or an Infinite One would be better for a medium speed and revolution stroker?

I was told the BLACK WIDOW is a break monster. Speed has to be kept up to keep it on the lanes. Not sure about THE INFINITE ONE. Might want to check out the EBONITE forum and see what everyone is saying about it. But be careful, on any ball you ask about, you are going to get those guys who say that it is the best ball that was ever made. You will need to make your own decision on which one to purchase.

Considering your profile, you cant go wrong with either ball.  Seing both of these balls in action, the Black Widow seems a little longer with similar ball motion as the Infinite.  Since the Widow has the same cover as the original One, the cover of the Infinite is stronger so it will handle slightly more oil than the Widow.  Hope this helps.

That is my understanding coming from an Ebonite Rep.

I would have to say the Black Widow. Only because i believe in Hammer balls lasting longer for some reason. It's just a personal opinion.

The Black Widow will give you a very nice reaction.
