Out of box it could handle heavier volumes. Of every "dull/oil" ball I have even owned, this stays in play for a long time and doesn't "get tired" later on the night. Carry is really something else with this ball. I have left one ring 10 in 8 games. (1892 for 8 games). I must say, for me, this really is not a ball that likes to be swung a lot. Don't get me wrong, it hooks, but the shape of the shot from this ball is not like anything on the market currently.
