I never really hear anything about the Clash from Ebonite. That ball gave me my first 300. It rolls very smooth and should not be overlooked.

Morich Total Shock & Awe is one that I don't see anything about. This ball kicks booty given that there is some oil. Even without a lot of oil last Sat in the 9pin tourny I shot 9 in a row then through two nine strikes then another natural. I was mad..but I still got accounted for a 300 but i wanted that natural so bad again..lol

Another great ball thats over looked is the Bash by Ebonite. I've gotten LOTS of high games with this one. On a decent night I avg over 210 with it.

Matter of fact just Monday night for 7 games I avg a 244 using the TS&A along with the Bash. then just got flat out exhausted and shot two low games one around 200 and other a 180 and still managed to avg 222.

Great balls and everyone wonders why my friend and I shoot so high! lol

Rival, I'm the only one I've seen use it since it came out, which is almost a year ago.  Its so good I drilled 2 more.

I wouldn't say the Complete NV is overated, the NVS yes, but not the Complete.  Every one i've seen has looked great. The NVS on the other hand, not so great

underated: I would have to say Bangers stuff as a whole Pounders and Finders at least the two I have. HFS and HPP Both have smooth breaks and amazing carry and read the lane very very well. I would take my HFS and HPP over THE Break, any Agent, any NV, or any Widow.

Overated: Anything Ebonite. The Break is a okay ball but I am not 100 percent sold on it yet.
