Exception- results after first use.
« on: August 05, 2005, 04:16:01 PM »
Got to throw my exception finally. Ball ended up with pin just above the finger line, right of ring finger 1/2 inch, and mass bias just below the thumb hole.

  This ball was smoother than I expected, and stronger. Played it on a shot from the night before. THS with dry outside of 8.

  Played the ball starting with my feet on 32, playing a swing shot over the 15th board out to the breakpoint. Ball was MONEY.

  The ball really likes to read the dry when you get it out early. When I did this, it checked up and went into the headpin.  When I hit my target, it held line well and hit home every shot. Carry seemed to be well above average also.

 I have been changing over to track ( or trying to anyway) and have been thinking this would be a lighter medium ball, but this ball is plenty on our shot here. I may get something a bit stronger for different houses, but this ball seems as though it would be a versatile ball.  Didn't seem too picky about hand position changes either.  If I rolled it, it arced to the pocket. If I got around the side a bit, it skidded to the breakpoint and snapped into the pocket. Both shots seemed to carry.

 O.K., I'm a bit impressed. Knowing what you know now, can you guys ( clint, chitown, excalibur, etc..) make a few suggestions based on this info?

 After throwing this, I know I won't be needing a gp2 anytime soon!(lol)

P.S. ALL suggestions are well appreciated. I just know this ball was more ball than I expected it to be.

If you like the original X, then check out the Rule Delta 1 coming out at the end of the month. It has the same cover (GOO LS) just no pearl, with a strong core. Cover should help you get more length than a particle cover like the GP2 and it will still handle all you need!
