What ball: Code Black or Timeless
« on: February 28, 2017, 03:04:50 PM »
I have the Iq Tour Solid, favorite ball in my bag and of all time, and the IQ 30 and i love them both.  Just picked up the No Rules Pearl and i like it, but more ball than i need most of the time.  If i really like the Iq tour and 30, would you recommend the timeless or code black more?

Timeless despite different cores/shapes/surfaces, it's the one that will give you better versatility to compliment your IQ/IQ30.  Although the code black is much more ball than the !Q 30, then have similar shapes on the back part of the lane.

The Timeless would be a perfect fit for versatility on med/med hvy conditions.

Second IQ Tour, drilled stronger than the first.

both balls you're looking at seem barely inside what you have.  the code black seems like it's a bit more than the IQ tour 30 and the timeless seems to be a little less than the NRP.  I don't see enough differences in the balls to spend the money either of these costs

My IQ 30 is one of my favorite balls.  Odd because I didn't care at all for the gold pear IQ.  I also didnt really like the Code Black when I demoed it.  Eventually settled on a no rules pearl as the next step up in my tournament arsenal.   It gives me a little more back end pop ehen I get deeper. 

Remember, you dont switch balls to keep from moving, you move then switch balls if your carry drops off.

Man! I am so glad you said that! I have a teammate who does just the opposite, and then it takes him a good four frames to get realiqned.....which I don't understand because, he didn't move when he switched pieces SMH!
