How bout a storm shift, it was a particle pearl. i see a couple people using theirs in one of my leagues, looks like a really good ball.

What is sandbagging???

I love the Shift or even Attitude Shift w/lane shine or when you can still ride the oil line.  It's got decent length for a solid r2s.  I've used mine all 3 games on occasion.  In fact I've been leaving my VG at home & just been using my Attitude & Shift exclusively.  Sucks that you can't hardly find too many Shifts NIB anymore.  Wonder what the replacement to the Shift will be?

As Mr. Straightball has mentioned also, knocking down the surface of a pearl may have the same effect on carry down.  I have a team mate who uses a dulled P/Domination all of the time.  He's got it laid out for skid/flip drill & that ball snaps wickedly throough the carry down w/excellent carry.

I hit my Hy-Road with a 2000 grit abralon pad and that ball really shines on the broken down and messy lanes. I find that surface is normally the issue when the lanes get sloppy. I also haven't lost anything on fresh shots with the surface on the hy-road, if anything its made it a tad stronger and easier to predict, making a great ball as a benchmark piece.

T-Road solid is next strongest ball after the Hy-Road. It is solid, meant for medium-heavy oil and should be able to handle carrydown that the Hy-Road cannot.

No one can suggest a drilling properly unless we know your release specs and how the Hy-Raid is drilled.

Rapid Fire solid, knock the polish off as needed. The TRoad solid would work as mentioned above, but the RFS will provide more on the backend.
