So far i have used this ball on a ths, the shark, and the chameleon. This ball provides great length with a strong but controllable reaction off the break point. for me this gives me a ball that i can open up the lanes with and still have great pin action seeing is how the ball will recover with a strong angle.
Now on the shark i will say this ball actually hooked a good amount for me i was surprised, it was almost too strong. Now i feel if i had taken the ball to a 2000 abralon surface i would have seen a great reaction with better success. With that said i was just like anyone else thinking there is no way this ball would hook but i was wrong granted the surface was wrong for the pattern. Plus this ball was not intended for heavy oil, but it did recover with a strong flip.
On the chameleon it was almost perfect for me to play the deep inside line and really gave me some miss room right. Once again i feel as i was using the wrong surface that maybe a 4000 abralon surface would have been better. but the point was to see what the ball would do ofb surface. It did work and i was able to score well on this pattern with this ball.
Ths, well it was strong! Really for the money and the average house bowler needs this ball, it will help you open the lanes and also has this great length which allows you to keep using the ball while the lanes are breaking down. So for one its strong enough to handle the fresh oil but goes long enough to handle the dry. All in all a well versatile ball great for that benchmark spot.
For those of you that have been frozen its time to turn up the HEAT and start burning up your competition!
