Unless you have a PAP of "My PAP is 3.5 & 1 Up." doubt you can compare much.

Sorry Slash, I guess I can''t do a Review because of my PAP?


I look at it that you have a very specific type of ball roll which for most would not be a very good comparison.  BUT, do review away!  Just take your technique into account.  I'd say this is true for everyone when comparing balls and bowling styles. The more information the better.

I get mine today will have mini review tonight or tomorrow geez it takes forever to get a ball from seismic.  I understand why it takes that long but you would think there would be a way to move it along. just anxious not bashing them impatient is all used to getting a ball in 1-3 days not 10 days thats all. let you know when i pop holes in mine tonight.

Rev,

Where did you order your ball from?  Any balls we ship out ship the day after the order is received.

Cheers

I have ordered two different seismic balls epicenter and desperado, from two different pro shops and both took over 7 days to receive them.  I understand that the order goes to pro shop from me then it goes to you ryan then you send it to 900 global factory and then it gets shipped to me.  I understand why it takes that long.  Not complaining about it cause it not going to change anyway as for desperado i received it and havent drilled it yet so when i do i may or may not post i dont know yet.

So I got a chance to to throw the desperado tonight after i drilled it up.  Pin just under bridge cg in center of grip with mass bias 1 inch right of thumb.  Ball is much earlier than i thought it would be left in box finish.  The lanes are old wood 10 to gutter very light oil if any but inside of ten is a decent amount of med oil but it goes away really quick.  Then you are left with alot of over under.  I was able to play 15 to 5 with it with max revolutions and it made a very pronounced arc to pocket with more than adequate hitting power to carry corner.  Takes hand position changes well.  Was able to stay be hind it and play up boars around 8 to 5 with strong roll to pocket.  Box finish was a little to much for this shot i am going to have to hit it with polish need it to push about 4 feet farther down lane.  Will give another review when i make surface change.
