How similar are the S&A and the 5.0?
« on: May 29, 2005, 01:45:27 AM »
So which one do you think would handle medium-heavy oil with medium-low revs with more up the back type revs?

kingpin,

I have only seen the S&A thrown by a couple of bowlers. It is not going to handle the same amount of oil as the 5.0. The particle pearl coverstock on the 5.0 is going to help it pick up better in the midlane. The S&A seemed best when it was used with fresh backends to help it make its turn.

With both of these balls being asymmetrical, MB placement is very important.

Yeah that's what I thought, but just wanted to get your opinion as I've read mixed reviews of the S&A. Thanks...

Okay, I may be an idiot for asking this, but what does S&A stand for? I'm sorry but I simply don't know what it means. LOL, I'm laughing at myself here!

Considering it says lower revs as much as I love morich I'd say 5.0 cuz of the sharpness of the S&A.
