Anyone drilled a Sahara or Total S&A yet?

Got two of each arriving Monday. Be interesting to see if the Saraha is really going to handle lighter conditions.

Here are the pics of the Total Shock and Awe.
This ball hooks more than any ball that Mo has made to date. I couldn't throw the ball with the out of box surface of 400 matte on a fresh league shot. I took it up to 2000 abralon and it was unbelievable. This ball will be hard to throw through your break point. Very aggressive coverstock and this ball corners very hard off the breakpoint but with the surface prep very controllable. I tried factory finish polish and it was on the flippy side.
Will give a another update when throw on some heavier oil patterns later on this week.

Hammertime that ball looks really hot. One question though,...is it that aggressive with the pin that high? Meaning does it really hook early?

also....do u have a sahara?

Yes the ball is really aggressive with the pin up that high. Actually Mo was laying them out with the pin up in most of them at his last seminar. I cant wait to throw this ball on oil. What I also liked was the versatility of the coverstock. Box finish was unreal when I first through the ball. I mean when I got the layout from Mo he told me that I had to throw the ball with box surface first to see how much this ball can and will hook. Man was he right, I could not get to the pocket on our freshly oiled league shot.


My Sahara's should be this week and I will give a review then.
