Had a fellow lefty bowling on our pair last night.
I was very impressed with his Paradigm Passion on wood with some medium heavy oil.
What a move. He also had a One drilled pin next to ring and strong mass bias that was too early and too much midlane and too sharp.
But the drilling variation he had on this ball.
Flip D..... with a twist (http://"http://www.ballreviews.com/Forum/Replies.asp?TopicID=126760&ForumID=18&CategoryID=5")
Was awesome! He is a typical firm lefty straight up 8 or 9 but boy he was getting a wonderful late sharp/smooth move from this ball and great pin action.
Difference in this drilling from the typical pin up and (1 1/2 inches from VAL) was that he had this 2 1/2 inch pin out ball with the cg right next to the ring fingers(lots of finger weight) and then drilled a weighthole...3 inches UP and to the side to take out excess finger and side(weighthole...almost near pin) and had a slightly deeper fingers.
I threw it and had the exact same reaction....late...smooth(from the coverstock) and sharp. I could feel it as I released it this ball had tremendous imbalance towards the pocket and gave me a crushing hit to the pocket also!

Mine is drilled very similar to that, and I love the reaction. Did you notice the power and hit at the pins? SMACK!!!

Ya, I am ording a Passion and going to go all out with it as I need all the reaction that I can get...But one of the regional guys had t put it away as it was to much for him and he was playing all the way left and firing all the way right and it still came back brokyln.

The thing is a hook monster. If you have a ton of revs on the wrong oil condition you will definitely have to put it away. On the other hand, it is great for heavy oil conditions and it hits really hard.
