but you bought a cadillac and you are hauling manuer in it . the battle is a much better ball than that i wouldnt waste my time on buying a heavy oil ball and then using it for when the heads are fried unless it wasnt a good heavy oil ball.That being said, depending on what you are looking for the odyssey imho is stronger and more angular than the battle. It might be my pin placement as they arent drilled the same,battle is at 4 inches from pap with pin right of and above the ring finger,and the odyssey is 5 inches with pin under bridge. the odyssey is smooth ,forgiving and responds to changes in release and hand position. it lets you know what it will and will not do ,but with a change it will respond. If ,knowing what i know now,had a choice to make between the 2 i would buy 3 odysseys. Did i mention it is also more versatile. By it not being partice its also lower maintainance than the battle. Odyssey hands down for med to oily conditions.
