Title: Animal....WOW!
Post by: icetink on August 30, 2004, 05:26:29 PM
WOW! WOW! WOW!

Drilled 4.5x3.5  and it's awesome!
It starts to read the midlanes early and it hooks very strong and continuous.
I haven't been able to compare it to my Phenom so far, but from what I've seen, it hooks earlier and hits a lot stronger.  I'll be able to compare the Animal and Phenom later this week.

At this house, the oil was quite heavy, and it didn't seem like the lanes were stripped.  The Animal still grabbed the lane and was able to come back!

At this house, the oil was very very very heavy but with backends that were a lot drier than the other house.  The Animal really impressed me here.  It starts revving well on the midlane, but once it encounters friction it just sticks to the lane and comes back hard!  

I'm very happy with the Animal and I look forward to getting the Rule to complete my arsenal  Now if only I can shell out another $400CAD.....

Looks good. I agree with you on this ball. I have had mine drilled for about 3 weeks and the thing is a monster. It just grabs and rolls no matter how much oil is out there. Glad to hear you like it.

Thanks to all who have helped me in deciding to get the Animal as a heavy oil ball as I am very pleased.  I'm sure sanding it down will make it hook a lot more, but it's pretty much perfect for me right now.  The Rule looks like another great ball probably even for heavy oil but its greatness is on the backeneds.  I'd have to agree with people saying the Animal is the true heavy oil beast because it revs up nicely and early on the midlane and arcs very strong and even.
