If the Revs and Finish are drilled the same, which ball is stronger?

I ask because I own both. The other day I was at a tournament throwing the Finish. During the second game, it was going brooklyn. Decided to throw the Revs, but that ball was hooking even more. So in my opinion, the Revs is stronger then the Finish. Am I correct in assuming this?

finish is more for med oil polished but rev is stronger but if u sanded it down to 500 the ball with the duller surface would be stronger

I agree with Mainzer.  The Revs is a stronger ball than the Finish.  I have both balls with the same layout, both at 4000 abralon, and the Revs hooks more.  Like Mainzer said, good one two punch.  I have heard the Revs will outhook the Awesome Hook with both at 500 abralon.

It depends on your definition of "strength".
If you consider the ball's traction ability in oil, the Revs is the "stronger" choice. If you look at potential breakpoint sharpness, the Finish is the "stronger" ball. With this, your observation is confirmed.
