Solid ball ?
« on: December 10, 2010, 01:01:01 PM »
I am looking for a ball along the lines of the Purple Storm Thunderstruck solid.  I have had great success with it in leagues but unfortunately the span is too long for me and can no longer use it anymore.  Currently I use a Roto Grip Rogue cell and Columbia freeze.  The Rogue cell is too much for this house shot.  The freeze gives me that skid snap look but can be difficult to read at the break point for me.  I prefer a mid price solid with polish like the thunderstruck any advice would be great.

Thanks.

Seismic Black Out is probably closest in overall reaction to the old Thunderstruck solid. If you polished a Missing Link solid, it might also come close.

The Nomad solid (& the newer Nomad Dagger) has the same idea but is slightly stronger in that it handles more oil than the TS did.

Storm's Reign of Fire... Comes from the "Thunder" line or a step down from that would be a 2fast... both are solid covers w/symmetrical cores where your Rogue is asymmetrical.

Good luck hotshot.

Another option would be the Roto Grip Grand Illusion there are still a few around if you look.
