300T
« on: January 02, 2012, 09:24:30 AM »
I need your opinion on the Track 300T vs a Roto Grip Mars (hybrid) or Pluto. According to the specs both balls are designed for dry to med/dry lanes and feature low flare potential. For those of you who have owned or throw both...please comment on the similarities, likes and dislikes.

 

Thanks for the help!

 

Well wishes in the New Year

I have owned all three of these balls, in fairness I have made an change to my release and am throwing the ball with more revs, and getting more power on my ball since I had the Roto Grip pieces.  In starting with the 300T I was a bit disappointed as the carry seemed to be a bit lackluster.  I was keeping it slightly dull, but in letting the surface go, and just cleaning it regularly, not dulling it, the 300T has turned into a monster, averaging slightly over 230 in my last 10 games or so in practice with it.  The Pluto I was just never happy with, the layout wasn't great on it, I tried a Rico drilling on it, and it just never performed well, so the layout may have not been the greatest choice.  The Mars was better, I liked that ball on drier lanes, it never really over reacted for me, so I can definitely give a positive review for the Mars, with a no contest on the Pluto as it wasn't drilled similar to the Mars.  The 300T has been great for me with the cleaner, more smooth surface, and has been carrying great.  Good length, and a very contolled move to the pocket, no jump,or flip to the left, the Mars was a bit sharper on the breakpoint. Hope this helps.

Thanks Game....I suppose that I will go with the 300T since I am rev dominant with med/soft speed 15-16 mph.

 

I don't expect sweeping hook from this ball.....but plan to drill it pin over ring.

 

I appreciate the feedback.....any other ideas about layout and surface are welcomed.
