Sure Fire
« on: October 16, 2007, 03:56:37 AM »
I'm looking for a ball to fill the gap between Roto's Epic Saga (4" pin) and Ultra Sonic (6" pin). Since I have not had a lot of luck with the Horizon/Mystic series, I've started looking at Storm. My idea is a Sure Fire with a 5" pin for length and arc-type backend.
I'm a lefty with slower speed and not a lot of hand. And while I generally like to shoot straight up the boards, I am looking for something that I can swing a bit and still have a controlled backend reaction.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing.

i would look into the spit fire or the pearl t road also the sure fire is a very good ball but all three are very good balls the spit fire has lots of length and a nice flip on it as does the t road pearl, while the surefire has a nice controled arc. I too had problems with my horizons and mystics not performing as i expected but if ya really like roto try the neptune with a more aggressive layout that ball hooked more than my mystic.

For the ball reaction you are looking for I like the thought of a Polished Sure Fire.  Though a Polish T-Road Solid could also be an answer...mine is very smooth with a polish on it and definately more controlled than my T-Road Pearl.
