Secret agent
« on: January 16, 2009, 11:20:05 AM »
How strong is the secret agent? would if handle heavier oil and perhaps take my uprisings spot? i need a decently strong ball for fresh shots clean backends and tourney shots.

No way in hell. I know it's advertised as a medium to heavy ball but it much weaker than the uprising. I need a good amount of oil in order to use the uprising. This ball is a monster if there is enough oil. I could only use it for one game if the lanes are medium because as the lane starts drying up the hitting power so does carry on the corner pins. The secret agent is more for medium lane conditions. By the I'm a tweener.

Everyone I know that drilled the Secret Strong found it to be a good ball for heavier stuff. The ball is deceiving to most and not one meant for house shots, it is a ball that for most will make a very gradual and consistent move. It does well on the flatter stuff but is not one for crossing a good deal of boards making it seem to be weaker.

I personally think it would work but I have a quick question for you, Is your Dimension not strong enough for that purpose? I find mine unusable at anything dull, the ball is wicked strong for me.

my dimension is drilled weaker to let me have a strong ball that will let me square up a little more on harder shots to avoid over under its like 3 inches above my ring if not more
