Strength of the Cruel?
« on: November 24, 2010, 02:27:21 AM »
I don't see much Motiv equip in my area.  I do see alot of Virtual Gravitys, Invasions, Missions....

How do these balls compare to the Cruel with similar surface prep?

In box condition and the layouts being the same, I think the VG is a much stronger ball.  The original Mission rolls earlier and I feel the Cruel has a sharper backend.  Can't speak for the Invasion, but what I do see with other bowlers is that the Invasion is earlier with less backend.

I know these comments are very generalized but I hope they helped a little.

Strong, look at the numbers. Again layouts, surface prep and condition bowled on all contribute to "the strength" of the ball. If matched up properly, one of the strongest on the market....IMHO

I touched the surface up with brown scotch brite pad. This ball is an absolute beast

I'm in the process of trying to find out where I fit in the bowling world. I do not know my tech specs of my game, but it's all a learning process.
