I have a friend who is basically on staff.. his rolls really well for me and him.. earlier and smoother than the gt1. It allows you to move inside and not have to get the ball to a defined friction point.. i.e. 5 or whatever.. and it also has good continuation. the 1 drawback I would say about this ball is you have no chance to move right.. imo this isnt a ball for a house shot unless you have high speed or very little revs.. oob you cant generally just play up the track area as some can with the sx1 or tx1.. motiv has now really made a complet arsenal...except plastic

Agreed not a ball for a house shot. I have never had a ball that could handle what the TR2 can. Quite impressive. The only problem is the ball is so early, and it just keeps on going.

I have the TR2 and it's what it's supposed to be a heavy oil ball.I have mine drilled 6"x4' with the pin
above the middle finger.This let's me move in deeper into the fresh oil, and go around the other
players playing the track area.I am a rev dominate player.320 revs with only 14 mph speed.This
ball corners great for me on the fresh house shot.Take a chance you will like this ball.Also go
to the MOTIV discussion  site and see what other people are saying about the TR2.

thanks guys.  i was thinking about getting one for my thurs night league as they throw down some seriously thick oil outside and it takes about a game to get a line burnt in for my sting to even think about moving.
