BALLS, balls, BaLlS
« on: February 10, 2004, 06:13:16 AM »
I currently throw a RG Rush, Storm super power pearl, Columbia Xtreme Chaos and a Storm Barbed wire. I am looking to update my arsenal and replace my xtreme chaos. Does anybody have any suggestion on which ball to look at?

Sorry Vinny, the Extreme Chaos is more ball than a Hot Rod or Razor Wire.  Extreme Chaos is a light load particle ball, with a fairly aggressive weight block.

If you are looking for a Storm ball, the closest thing is probably going to be a Core Power LRG (which are being discontinued) or an X Factor Reloaded.   Both of these balls are still probably a little more ball than an Extreme Chaos.  Core Power HRG is probably a little less.  Super Charge might be pretty close, even though it is reactive resin.

LGriedl112, go with a Super Charge.

Mike,

I'd agree with your analysis IF his Extreme Chaos were in stock box condition. I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that it isn't. Being an older TEC coverstock and an older ball, I'd bet it's either soaked with oil and beat up or polished. Either of those would drastically alter what he is looking for.

LGriedl112,

Please tell us how your EC reacts compared to your other balls to give a better idea what to recommend. How long it goes, how much it hooks on what condition compared to your other balls??

when the lanes are somewhat kinda try i play a line that i use with my rush, which is feet on the 2nd dot from the left outside and over the closet dot to the middle on the right side. It will depend on the oiling but usally it is kinda sleeper until it cathes back and flip somewhat hard at about 20ft from the pins. hope this helps
