I would have to say that yes, the hyroad is the benchmark ball. I polished the bounty before i drilled it because i knew there wouldn't be anything around here for it to really shine on oob. The t-road solid is what i use if I encounter anything heavier than the norm, or if i want to migrate inside away from other players.
