lol, on a more serious note, first couple that pop into my head are the Ebonite Clash or either of the Hammer Vibes...both are around .045-ish on the differential, pretty significant/strong-ish cores. Both claim to have "weak" covers on them. Nowadays though, how "weak" that actually is is the topic of debate. JMO. Hope this helps.

Nothing Hits Like A Hammer

Quote from Joe Jr.:

The cover on the Smokin' was anything but weak.
-----------------------------------------------------------

You're correct, technically, however, is there really a ball out there that's got a weak cover combined with a strong core?  There aren't many.  With the high gloss polish the Smokin' would SKIIIIIIIIIIID, then finish very strong.  

The next best thing are a big step down as far as the core goes: the balls like the Avalanche pearl, the Punisher, the Roto Grip Neptune, the Hammer Vibe...  

Lots depends on how you'd like to play the lanes, but I'm assuming you'd like a ball that you can use as they start to transition, and everyone's moving inside, and you'd still like to play straighter?  Out of all the balls I've thrown the past 4 or 5 years, the Smokin' excelled on that condition, especially if you can soften the release and let the ball glide down the lane.
