Slash vs Blazing inferno
« on: May 04, 2005, 04:37:59 AM »
I bought a FAZ after reading all the hype about that ball a month ago. I was not disapointed. Lately I have been reading a lot about the Slash. My question is, will the slash fit between my Blazing inferno (label drilled) and my FAZ?
I'm thinking it will but, I would like a few comments/suggestions. I'm slowly leaning toward replacing a few of my bowlingballs with Track bowlingballs.

Thanks.

The Slash will fit in the middle of them. The FAZ's low RG starts the ball early. The Slash, with a good solid cover and decently strong core, will fit behind the FAZ and will work wonders when the FAZ starts to lose its luster when the heads start to go. The Blazing, being a pearl, should fit behind the Slash and get through the heads better due to the pearl/polished cover vs the dull solids of the FAZ and Slash. The Blazing will have the most backend as well due to the pearl saving its energy for down the lane.

BigHorhn,

I agree with what Clint says, but I also I want to add this:

With the finishes both OOB, the Slash could be stronger than the Freakazoid because the Slash comes with a dull smooth finish. I have posted in a couple other threads recently, I did not keep my Slash with the OOB finish, I put 1000 grit compound (track's clean n sheen) over the surface). With this coverstock adjustment it fits nicely under the Freakazoid.

Hey BigHorhn,

Same here, the Slash does fit in there well with the lite surface adjustment.  The Blazings I came across actually turned out to go much longer than I think Bruns intended.  Some were disappointed by that..

Well I actually like my Blazing. It handles light conditions well with backends.
I think I'll get a Slash and drill it to pick up the role a little earlier. I have my FAZ drilled label to. When it hits the dry it takes of. I want use the Slash when it is to much oil for the Blazing and the Faz is jumping of the dry to much. If it works out well i'll take the polish of off the Faz and use it for heavier conditions. Thanks guys
