There is a ton good stuff in the low to midprice catagory.
AMF Titan
Brunswick Nemesis, Bruiser, Power Groove
Columbia Bully, Wired, Alter Ego, Detour, Ti Traction, Hyde
Dynothane Crisis or Vendetta series
Ebonite Vortex II, V2 Sweet/Clean
Hammer Blade series
Roto Grip Silver Streak series or Sonic series
Storm Charge series, Force series, Razor Wire
Track Havoc, Crunch Time
For medium hook that will work on a variety of shots, I'd look at a solid cover resin ball. The Nemesis, Bruiser, Ti Traction, Vendetta Black, V2 solid, Silver Streak Solid, Flash Force, and Havoc are all great choices. If you want something easy to control, look at the Flash Force. If you want versatility, look at the Havoc. The Havoc is basically a remake of the AMF Nighthawk, one of the best balls made IMHO.
