Fired Up vs Thunderstruck Pearl
« on: September 24, 2007, 03:13:19 PM »
How different are the reactions of these two balls when drilled the same
only difference is the core shape and Rg numbers are very similar:
F-U @ 16
Rg. 2.54
diff 0.49
Thunderstruck @ 16
Rg. 2.54
diff 0.54

NGU...not sure how you arrived at that list. I have had every ball you made a list for and I did not see that chart. My list with your's next to it.

Pyro - SPECIAL AGENT
Special Agent - AGENT
Fired Up - T-ROAD PEARL
Agent - FIRE UP
T'struck Solid - PYRO
T-Road Pearl - SPIT FIRE
Spit Fire - THUNDER STRUCK SOLID
T'Struck Pearl - THUNDER STRUCK PEARL
Jolt Pearl - JOLT PEARL

To me, you ranked the Agent & T-Road Pearl over the Fired Up but they don't hook as much overall to me. Both those balls start earlier then a Fired Up, giving the illusion it is covering a hundred boards.

It's like people talking about the lanes being dry but never moved inside of 10 because they cannot finish the ball.

STAY FF MY BLCK!
...Mr. Straight Ball prays his ball will hook one day!

I'm talking about how soon the ball will hook
in heavy oil compared too the next ball
not how much it hooks down lane when it does
hook. It's about when it hooks and how
it hooks.
 Right now I have a 247 ave. after 5 weeks of bowling!!!

Need more INFO just ask..

Good Luck..

Average means??? I know people averaging 228 right now that have yet to book a 200 average in the past. I had an El Nino Gold that I took 243 until Jan before putting the ball down. Averaged 238 in a summer league. It's just a number that says, where I bowl is easy! ROFL

I read my reaction different from you. Clears up the difference in "hook" since I never want to see my ball reading the fronts. What you speak of as hook I tag those balls as having an arc type reaction.

I never said it was a hard shot.

Mr. Straight Ball I Ave. well over 200
no matter what house I bowl at for a whole year.
 
I work hard on my game and NGU!!

Jeff CARTER Ave 261.74 for a year
now we both know Jeff can bowl
or was it a easy shot?
I know it was BOTH.

I think we would make a good TEAM!!

Give yourself, the shot, and the balls
CREDIT for good bowling..
