Morich stuff for me. LevRG, strong cover and core, yet angular. Have no problem getting it back from anywhere. I also have a Black Widow Bite, with a 3.75" pin to pap, and it drill turns pretty hard around 2000-4000 grit.

There are several solid asymmetrical out now that have strong backends. My Mutant Cell will turn the corner. Short oil patterns will make this ball have a hockey stick shape. On longer oil patterns it goes long but still has a big back end.

Get the Full Swing and be done with it.  Ball will remind you of a Black Widow or GameBreaker with more backend pop.

If anyone out there is worried about the scores being too high, try duckpin!!

  as your profile states and if you are a true stroker,IMO I do not think you will get a great backend reaction from a stronger asymmetrical solid ball.. you will probably get a strong continuous move to the pocket.. if you are dead set on a solid, you will need to change the surface and polish it.. I think a stronger covered asymmetrical pearl would work better for what you are looking for..

  I have 2/900 global breaks, 1st ball drilled 5x5x3 pin down OOB (clean through the heads/(unless dry) and very strong continuous move off the spot).. I wanted more pop off the spot so I drilled the 2nd ball 5x5x1.5 pin up OOB (very clean up front and just a little more off the spot).. I needed to play with this ball to get the desired reaction I wanted.. ended up changing the surface to 500,4k(spinner) and ontop of that a light 2k by hand with a factory finish polish(spinner polished/2sides quarter drop sized polish)..

 depending on what you are really looking for(for your eyes only reaction), you will have to play with the solid balls cover to get what you want.. just my opinion..     slashrr69

And thats exactly what i intend to do with the solid and polish it some...wanting something for Nationals and prefer solid coverstock...pearlized is too squirty for me...but with the right core/coverstock matchup, was wanting some backends

if u want the ball to turn sideways off the dry, try the following


the one
black widow
epic odyssey
virtual gravity
mutant cell

again, depending on ur stats, even a jigsaw corner could do the job, but for that u have to be low rev, high tilt, and with decent speed

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.
