Does this look ok ?
« on: May 05, 2005, 12:40:48 AM »
After the numerous NICE sets I had with my trusty Hercules this year, I wound up getting another and putting  a control drill on it...and loving that even more !! I also picked up a WMB and just recently a S&A ....here's what I'm thinking.........
specs in my profile

WMB - 600-800 ...I don't see a tone of "heavy" stuff...mostly fresh medium heavy so this ball will cover most of the heavier stuff I see...

Hercules 2 - 800 smooth ... will cover medium to medium heavy as well in a smooth arcing pattern...(control drill) very predicatable

S & A - 800 compound... all medium conditions

Hercules 1 - 1200 compound ...mediums ...smoother than S & A and some medium light conditions

THINKING OF ADDING the Sahara - 1500 polished for medium light and lighter stuff

Based upon what I see, I should be able to handle most everything I see plus have enough for a few tournaments as well....

thoughts?

Looks good to me.
Only hole will be filled by the Sahara.
I picked a RotoGrip Sonic X Solid for the lighter stuff for myself.
I couldn't wait. I needed it now.

Jeff,
 I have a Total Annihilation and had loved this ball but I'm rolling TRACK and RotGrip stuff very well right now and it stays in my truck ... anyway, that lineup looks AWESOME !!!

DAMN, I LOVE this game !!!

take it to King of the Mill!  seriously!!

it's in BOX right now...and mine came with a high polish on it,...kotm told me that they're coming in anywhere from a sheen, to a high polish....

for me without the compound to get to 800, I go with a grey scotch brite, wet ON EDIT: by hand!

hello guys, im seeeing here that your changing the cover stock of the s&a  from 1200 to 800, im just curious as to why,mine is a total hook monster out of box with a 3/8 drill, your colleaction of morich is similar to mine except i have a mayhem sanded  to 2000 then polished with a control drill on it for the dry  its awesome  and very smooth,  it surprised me when i tried it just as an experiment,,

I didn't say the S&A was 1200 .... it's 400 w/ factory polish over it and mine was too shiney, that's all....

I don't have a ton of hand and I dont' like polished equipment and the look it gives me......that's all....and I love 800 compound!
