The question that everybody hates!!!!
« on: August 08, 2004, 03:51:20 AM »
I am in dire need of a heavy oil ball. I am a tweener, but a power player nonetheless. I get 20+ revs and throw it 18-20 mph. With that said, here I go:

What ball will hook the most for me?

I want a ball that will hook it oil, so I want a solid, dull particle.
I also want the ball to hit hard w/ a good block in it. NO Big Hit Particles, lol.

I have these in mind, but am not limited to these:

Goliath
Big Blue
Triumph TNT
Mayhem
Freak
Alter Ego
Fear Factor
Animal

Give me any info on a ball that will hook 40 boards for me.
If it helps, I liked the Phenom and Warp Zone for heavy hook, but wanted something more aggressive (I'm asking for a lot, lol).

Thanks

If you can find one, a swamp monster. Thats the biggest hooking oil ball out there, or so I hear.

Goliath seems to be the only thing that is gona out hook a warp zone, in my opinion.  And it is a dull solid particle, the higher rg(compared to their previous solid particles) should help you keep the ball hooking in the backend.

Nothing is more than Goliath....NOTHING!

And I've only seen Goliath Polished and it was still earlier and stronger than an Ultimate drilled the same way.  I can't imagine it dull.

The biggest hooking ball right now is the Animal from Track. You can dull it to get it into an even bigger midlane roll. However, if there is any backend at all, I would look into the new Rule. It's a sanded reactive that should really do the job. With any dry it will hook as much as the Animal but will have more length with a bigger back end.

I agree with Lane Bed on the Animal. I saw this ball thrown and its an absolute monster. If you want a good heavy oiler cheap, I have a Super Freak for sale!!

In my opinion, the Ultimate Inferno is the biggest hooking REACTIVE ball on the market.
Super Carbide Bomb is the hookingist particle.
My Ultimate moves more than anything else I've ever thrown - except the Super Carbide bomb.

Why would you want to hook the ball 40 boards? Trust me I can out crank any one on here but I have learnt the hard way over the years that the bigger the hook you throw the bigger the trouble you get into! If as you say you have 20+ revs you should not need any more ball than the warp. learn to play down and in more. When that ball hits with 20+ revs going down the lane instead of across it and back again TRUST ME YOU WILL DESTROY THE RACK EVERY TIME.
