Titan SE ... Me or the ball?
« on: November 17, 2005, 12:30:35 AM »
I (see my profile) got a Titan SE about a month ago.  It's drilled fingertip for an alley that is mostly dry, except for leagues when it is mostly wet.  Titan loses all power in the wet and leaves many, many 7s and 10s with an occassional 5 for good measure.  
Looking for a new ball that handles wet, has a lot of back end snap and plenty of power entering the pocket (don't we all).
I've got my "A" list down to:
- Ebonite: XXcel, Big Time Pearl
- MoRich: Weapon of Mass Bias, Weapon of Mass Bias II, Seek and Destroy
- Storm: X Factor Trifecta.
The balls I've stopped considering are:
- Brunsick: Ultimate Inferno, Goliath
- Columbia: Big Bully
- Ebonite: Big Time
- MoRich: Shock & Awe, Total Shock & Awe

Three questions:
1) Have I eliminated any balls that I should really consider?
2) Have I missed any balls that I should be looking at?
3) Which ball should be at the top of the list for the backend snap and power I'm looking for in Medium-wet to wet conditions?

Many thanks to all!

why do you have the WMB and the Seek and Destroy on the list,...but not the S&A and TS&A ?!

Also....unless backends are really nice and fresh, you're not going to get a good "snap" in heavier stuff.......

Seek & Destroy
Total Shock & Awe

I agree with Jeffrevs on this

Also, you should really consider the XXXcel. This ball movs no matter how much oil !

Thanks guys.
I eliminated the S&A, the TS&A and XXXcel based on comments I read in postings on these sites.  By that time I was looking at so many balls, I just tried to keep the best based on that.  I appreciate all of you helping me.  Thanks!

All the MoRich balls you mentioned, either on your list or not, have the same core.....
