Jolt Particle?
« on: April 11, 2009, 06:10:34 AM »
How come there is no review for a Jolt Particle? Is it so bad that nobody ever used one? Or ........?

I picked up a 14lb. one the other day to add to my new 14lb. arsenal I am building for next year. The specs look OK but wtf? No review?

The ball is a house shot sleeper, very predictable, and it hits.
It's not a miracle ball, just a work horse. I have mine drilled
5 X 4 1/2 pin over the bridge stacked. When the backend gets a little
sluggish, break it out and it will take care of you.

That ball got lost in the shuffle when people and manufacturers starting steering clear of particle equipment. Here are some reviews for you.

I have never given a review, but i will give u my 2 cents. I had one laying around NIB for about 6 months and was going to drill it and take it to Nationals. I popped some hole in it i think it was 41/2 x 4. I went 243-222 with it before i started hanging in the thumb because i did not have it quite worked out yet. This is a very underrated ball!!!! It will definately make the turn where you think it should be really smooth for a Particle. It will cut thru the oil and will recover extremely well and the carry was awesome to say the least. I will be getting a couple more of these and put them away. Thanks Kevin
