If you want a comparison on the two balls.  The WMB is a great wet/dry ball because it doesn't read anything too much.  The Seek and Destroy has more back-end then the WMB.  The 'Seek' was one of my favorites.

I owned both balls.  WMB by far was the best ball that MORICH ever created.  The seek and destroy was probably the worst attempt at making a ball flip and react like the WMB I have ever seen.  

Honestly use the WMB

WMB was the earlier ball, and compared to the S&D more arcing, "harmless", but by no means a weak ball. The later S&D had a similar but modified core - like Cbjdc states, it was designed to offer a more pronounced breakpoint. Not sure if I'd call it flippy, but at least that's the direction it goes. Not sure about the cover - both were particle balls with Brunswick covers, so they offer an early read on the lane. If you are out for control, I'd give the WMBa shot. The S&D ios the more modern "version", more aggressive, but I am not sure if that makes it a better choice.

IMO, the WMB is still one of the best control balls ever made.
It's funny this thread was created. Based on the reports from Reno, I've been considering pulling out my WMB for Natl's.
