Ball below a Bandit
« on: March 13, 2012, 11:28:30 PM »
What ball would be a great fit below a Bandit. I am looking for something that I can use when the Bandit is hooking to much or grabbing a little early. I would like something with some more length maybe but still have a good strong reaction. I have a Nomad Pearl that we drilled to get good length and be smooth ontheback but it hits soft all day, i can hit the pocket with it but it hits weak. I would prefer to stay with storm/roto.

The Rising Star would be a great option.  It's a few boards weaker than the Bandit but still has good length and enough backend to pick up where the Bandit leaves off.

The Rising Star is great option, a nice long layout would be 60 x 4 1/2 x 55 with pin above the fingers.

Best of luck and feel free to message me if you have more info on your current layouts and current list of balls so I can help you make a good and educated decision...

Thanks!!!
