first off before i get into anything heres my stats
pap 4-3/8 over 5/8 up
15 degrees axis tilt
ball speed 15-16 mph
rpm (est) 300-350 rpm
passion drilling
3-3/4 x 4 1/2 mb
weight hole on my val pitched away about 1-1/4"
problem:
got it and threw it (oob surface) worked ok but i was never a big fan of that much surface...obviously if i wasnt on enough oil it rolled out, but when i did get on a shot with some more oil, this ball still struggled to turn the corner
so then i took the surface to 800 with a scotch brite pad...this was better, a little more usable, but still not what i was looking for it still just kind of quit on the backend ESPECIALLY with even the slightest bit of carrydown. when i got on a shorter shot with fresh snappy backends the ball just made a nice hard arc and reacted nicely...but hardly the heavy oil ball i was looking for
i then tried the surfaces of 1000 and 2000....and it got even worse so im back to 800
the last straw was watching this ball go dead straight on the shark pattern from ANY angle...ive never seen anything like it
and usually when i do hit the pocket with this thing carry is a toss up
so what should i do...a few people around here have this ball and thiers turns circles around mine....i know there were problems with cracking but were there any problems with cover durability?
i emailed storm on sunday but have yet to hear back yet
anyone on here have any ideas?
thanks!
