Got to throw mine today on some dry wood lanes. I'm usually lined up fairly straight on synthetics. Around 25 to 10, but today I was against the ball return and still coming up high at times. The ball definitely has some back end to it. I can't wait to try it in league when the lanes start to transition! Very aggressive pearl. I get more reaction with it than my MCP which I now keep highly polished and use for right side spares.
