I have both, unfortunately they are not drilled the same. But for info
purposes, my Bounty is drilled 4" pin to pap, MB 6" from pap, pin up, x-hole 2"
down val. The MB is under the thumb. I was hoping this drilling would
get the ball down the lane then make a nice move to the pocket. But with my
release, the Bounty made a strong/smooth roll to the pocket. I took it to
2000 abralon and added Snake Oil, and now it gets the legnth I was looking
for, with the pop on the backend.
The Solaris Requiem is drilled 4 3/4" pin to pap with the CG 4 1/2" to pap,
x-hole 2" down val, pin up. In its OOB condition, the Requiem had decent legnth,
strong midlane read and continuous on the backend. I dont see alot of oil
so I took it down to 360 abralon, hit it lightly with a 500 abralon, than
hit it lightly with a 4000. The Requiem was still a very strong ball after
this, but it had the length I was looking for. Alot of legnth and very strong
angular move on the backend.
I would say, though, that if both were drilled the same, they would both handle
the same amount of oil, but with different angles to the pocket. They both are
great pieces. I love my Requiem too
, and it does turn alot of heads when I
throw it.
On a side note...I would say that when I put the Requiem to 4000 Abralon, it had
the same reaction shape as my Rogue Cell(drilled identical). But was a bit
stronger.
