Need a Retro Red Comparison
« on: April 11, 2005, 02:22:22 AM »
Is there anything this ball/reaction is similar to?  Will help me determine how I lay it out.  I currently have 2 SS Solids, an RS-1 from the RG line as well as a GP2 and Xception.  Appreciate the help in advance.

Some balls are overpriced....for everything else...theres RotoGrip.

D,

I would suspect the Retro Red to be a little sooner and more overall than a SS due to it's cover at 400 matte!

Retro 2.576 - .052
SS    2.52 - .040

I think it's safe to say it'll look like stronger SS and /or resurrection...
