Bridge below pin pap 5 1/4 x 1/2 up. Out of box condition.
Ok, I have been using this ball now for about 3 weeks. My first time out I bowled on a scorpion pattern and threw 635. My line was 20 to 15 and stayed there all three games. Had a good look at the pocket and excellent carry. Next I bowled at the Indiana state moose tourney in Auburn, In. Tried to use the Slant there but the lanes were way too dry. Had to use my missing link straight up 4/5 board as hard as I could throw. Everything else inside with swing was just too inconsistant so using the slant on dryer lanes not so good. Next I bowled at two different houses on league shots. This ball was money on the house shots. Shot 714, 760, 745 and 687 using the Slant. I had great carry and the ball hits very hard. I have not touched the ball with any polish or pads as of yet. For me, the OOB condition is just too good. This ball is first out of my bag every time.
Conclusion- Ball is great for medium to heavier oil patterns Ball out of box will make the turn if you keep it a little tighter. When I tried to swing it out on heavier oil patterns it came up just a little short. I am sure if I was to scuff the ball a little it would be a monster. I am seeing a flair of about 5". This ball is a lot stronger than I thought it would be and I am very impressed. I cant wait to try another Radical ball release. For anyone that is on the fence whether or not to try this ball all I can say is jump on it. You will not be disappointed. Congrats to newguy and his new company. Job well done.
Can't wait to try out the new Radical equipment!
Todd.
