Why....
« on: April 19, 2008, 04:37:15 AM »
Does my rapid fire hook so freaking much? Bascially the pin is above the right my right finger hole. It may go longer than my cell but the damn thing hooks more than it. Its like its just to flippy on the back end, when it goes it goes.

R2S Solid is a very strong coverstock.  The box finish is polished, which will make it cleaner through the front, but stronger off the dry.  Knocking the polish off it and using it at either 2000 or 4000 abralon will make it hook a little earlier and smoother.  It will still hook a lot, but it will be more controllable.

 You could always put a 'Flare' reducing hole in it...that would help.

If there's not medium-heavy oil for the Cell, of course the Rapid Fire, a highly polished solid, will hook more. When there's enough oil for the Cell, teh Rapid may skid 55-60 feet, and the Cell will crush the pocket.

A word to the wise: Use the right ball for the amount of oil on which you're bowling!!
