Reactive Balls
« on: November 04, 2009, 06:45:42 AM »
Afternoon All,
My arsenal:   Terminator, T-Road Pearl, Special Agent, The Sting, Rampage and Vapor Zone.  Other than the Rampage and special agent, I believe the remainder are pearled (?)  For my next ball I wanted somethng just straight Reactive.
Like the Roto-Grip Nomad or the storm hot rod something in the mid range.
I'm a left handed stroker at about 12-13 mph.  I bowl on synthetic lanes over here in Daly City Ca.  any suggestions???????
thanks in advance.
C.

The new Wild Card and Diamondback have been great for me. They will both be released on the 8th. Both balls make a nice move after the usual midlane read.

The Nomad has been a nice one so far, too.

Terminator and Sting are solid reactive resin particles.
Rampage is a solid/pearl reactive resin combination.
Vapor Zone, T-Road Pearl are pearlized reactive resin.
Special Agent is a solid reactive resin with "micro additives".

The Nomad is available as a solid or a pearlized reactive resin.
The Hot Rod is a pearlized reactive resin. There were several other Hot Rods, but the ball called the Hot Rod as a pearl.

What do you mean by a "straight reactive"?

I'm guessing a Solid Reactive, no pearl additives..something like a Cell? I believe the original is a full solid.

Since the original poster seemed somewhat confused about which of his balls were pearl or solid, I figured I should ask.

Thanks for all the replies guys.
I've been working so couldn't reply immediately
So as you can see I have quite bit of "Pearled" balls.
the street rod variety does come in pearled and not pearled
I was looking for something that is Pure Reactive as in the Furious or Nomad
as you can see most of my balls have pearl or pearl additives.
Just curious how it would be to throw a reactive in our house. (synthetic)
JLS for your info:  yes there are straight reactives here in the SF Bay Area...its just up to you to figure it out dude.
