Title: Is it possible to go all particle?
Post by: omegabowler on September 26, 2003, 02:49:54 AM
I have three particle balls that I could go with for a decent generic line up.

1. V2 strong - med/heavy- shorter oil and Wet/dry

2. Predator Pursuit polished up. med/lighter shots

3. V2 dry polished as well.

of course Plastic for spares.

 I can work with that but it just seams odd.

The V2 dry is a particle ball?

Somehow I don't buy that.

Geez, these websites are driving me nuts.

When they are specifying coverstock it should be either: "particle", "reactive", "urethane", or "polyester".

So sick of reading "Patented Ultrabowlifium reactive urethane infused with Halobolt particles"

OmegaBowler,

Get used to it.

If you read the current BTM, The Columbia Spirit II, which is supposed to be a reactive particle, has less overall hook than the Lane#1 XXL, which is a pearl urethane. It has the same length and backend and similar, but not exact, ratings for oil handling ability. In fact, even the core ratings for RG and RG Differential are similar. That means the Lane#1 pearl urethane coverstock is stronger than the Spirit's particle coverstock, and both are polished ----

---- at least, according to Bowling This Month magazine's testers
