Had it for a while, finally getting around to posting a review.

Ball: 16lbs (man weight)
Pin 2-3"
Top: ??
Drilling: 4 x 3

Me, lefty good revs, higher speed (16-17mph at the pins). Layed out by Bill Monce, sales rep and a heck of a bowler (the guy in the Crunch Time ad) based on how I roll the ball and not really hook it (11 degree axis tilt according to Mo Pinel), ball sets up very well for me. With this drilling, it allows me to play a little 10-5 swing while the ball gets into a roll very quickly but still maintains plenty of energy for the backend. Doesnt make a big skid/flip move, more of a continuous arc into the pocket. Messengers o' plenty when the ball enters the pins at a lower angle. Have used this ball on several shots, a 39 foot wall with good backends, a 36 foot wall with decent backs, shot crown on wood lanes, and on a late shift leftover shot where the ball set up by the arrows, then skidded until the pins. Have been able to use this ball on all conditions and be able to score well with it. Carry percentage is good when I throw it good, but when I throw it bad....well the end result usually isnt too good but thats my fault. Great ball from Track, thanks again Del!

No the ring, not the hand....

hey this is my first review

i am a 16 year old, work at AMF waldorf in maryland
I drilled one of these up yseterday pin next to right finger, i threw two practice games then went to my scratch league. First game i shot 300 mostly flush pocket shots, next game i shot 256 then 237 for a 793 set. This ball is amazing, all you have to do is hit the pocket. its a great ball to swing out, last nigh i stood 28 and threw over 9 out to 3 and slammed the pocket. I hope this ball only brings me more luck

Great Ball

i agree with tenpin i had a mutan drilled up with 5/8 finger and 1/4 negative side and the ball went completely nuts it went 35 feet and turned around totaly hooks off the lane not for someone that has a med to high rev rate or side roll at all

This review is for a Mutant Mania, not the original Mutant. The Mutant Mania is a Mutant core with the Sheer Havoc coverstock.

Ball specs: 15 lbs 5 oz. 2" pin 4.5 oz of tw.

Based on my PAP (6 1/4" over), ball is drilled 5 1/2 x 3 (pin x mb). This left the pin under my ring finger and the mb between my thumb and VAL.

I used the ball on a few different shots and got a good read out of it on all 3 shots.

First shot, med/hvy oil to about 40', 5 to 5 with quite a bit of carrydown. The schools were on vacation so the lanes were pretty sloppy. I got lined up standing on 20 playing 10 at the arrows out to 8 and the ball was smooth and controllable, but very aggressive. It arcs very hard. It reads the midlane very well, but still has good length. It retains energy well for the pins. I was in the pocket all night playing this line on this shot.

Second shot, med oil to 42 ft, 5 to 5 with spotty backends, second shift league. On this shot, the ball was very aggressive. It needs head oil to get down the lane. I had to move in real deep on this shot. I was standing on 30, playing 20 out to 15. On this shot, the ball worked great again. It revved up early and ready the midlane and again arced hard on the backend and smacked the pins around with authority. I am not usually comfortable playing this deep but this ball made it easy for me to play a deep line. I got lined up and was in the pocket again all night.

Last shot, med oil 40' buffed to about 48' stripped backends, 5 to 5. I got lined up standing on 25 hitting 15 at the arrows out to 8. The ball read the midlane great again and revved up hard when it hit the buff area and stormed back to the pocket. The ball worked great on this shot as well. It read the midlane well and made a strong, hard arc to the pins.

Summary, this is a great ball to read the mids with. It gets started up early, especially with the drill pattern I have on it. This core/cover combo works very nicely together. I dont know why they didnt release this here. It is a great ball. Very responsive to hand changes and retains energy well for the pins. The coverstock can be dulled up for heavy oil or polished to fit more of a med oil gap. In box condition this ball would suit your med/hvy needs perfectly. Another great ball from Track!!

I just close my eyes and throw the ball
