Most Angular / Most Backend Ball
« on: January 13, 2018, 06:58:25 PM »
Which of these is the most angular and biggest backend for when you need to get left ,get the ball down the lane and back to the pocket, and carry the corners?

Hammer   Black Widow Red Legend pearl
Motiv   Lethal Paranoia   
900 Global   Honey Badger   
Ebonite   Affinity
Radical   Katana   
Hammer Scandal Pearl

Or are there others that are better?

Katana is probably the strongest skid flip ball.  Love my Honey Badger on THS though because its two piece.  Hits a ton though it can't handle as much oil as the Katana.  Hard to recommend the Scandal Pearl for house shot imo (own as well).

Scandal pearl too strong and needs too much oil to perform?

Where would the widow gold fit in there?  Is that the same cover as the scandal pearl?  Said semtrex pearl but I'm not sure if it is the CFI like the scandal pearl.

The Katana is very stout as far as that goes.  It is also very versatile.  In a short time with the new Tenacity it is a little longer and has more backend than the Katana.  It is a 2 and 1 left for me on the lane.  The Tenacity also has the new Dynamicore.

my paradox tx3 was pretty angular, but it can be hard to find so a paradox pearl might work just as well

Literally Storm/RG bread and butter.

No particular order.

Code Black
Hy-Road Pearl
Dare Devil Danger
Intense
No Rules Pearl
Wreck-Em

Son!Q, Drive, & Hyper Cell Fused are looking to be heading in that direction as well.

Just a pretty meh ball on THS.  Lot of people have over/under problems with it.  Not bad just kind of mediocre imo but may be a match up problem with me.  Haven't tried it on sports patterns but I guess it does better with those.  If I paid $110 for it instead of $160 would probably have a more favorable opinion.  Doubt I will ever pay over $130 for a ball again.  Black Friday baby.

Thanks for the info and feedback.  I agree.  I try to not pay over $120. Ill gladly take a cover on a year or two old ball for half the price.  I don't need the newest rendition of the same cover they have used on two or 3 balls.
