MOJO
« on: November 05, 2003, 05:01:14 AM »
Just wanted some feedback regarding which conditions the Mojo excels on and how the ball has worked for you guys. I am a stroker and I beleive the ball I purchased has a 3" pin so I am going to be putting a length drilling on it. Any feedback from people with similar (or different) styles is greatly appreciated.
(More info in my profile)

Like it or hate it? Let me know!

Jeff, I had one of these a while back and loved it. I regret getting rid of it!! The ball is VERY SMOOTH, not flippy or snappy at all. It is all about a smooth arc with this ball. I used mine on med/hvy with carrydown and played right up the boards with it and the ball worked like a charm. I notice you said that you were going to put a length drilling on this, hmmm, if it were me, and I have similar speed and revs as you do, I would get it into a roll early. The bigfoot coverstock naturally gets good length. In any case, good luck, you will love this ball!!

I did intend to use the ball for med-dry lanes anyways, but if it is good to play up the boards with on heavier stuff then I'll have to try that. I should be able to adjust hand position to roll it more.

The reason I chose the Mojo was because I seemed to remember quite a few people talking positively about it on these forums. My other choice was a Monster Screamer, but I didn't want to limit my whole arsenal to Brunswick so the Mojo it was!

Anybody else?

The Mojo is a medium-to-medium heavy ball and for lanes where the conditions are sloppy.  It has the Voodoo/Cuda core and is stronger and smoother than the Voodoo.  It is not for drier lanes -- the coverstock is too strong -- unless you throw with substantial speed and less substantial revs or don't put a lot of revs on the ball.  Kept polished, it can work on medium lightish oil, but no less.  The Monster ScreamR is NOT a substitute.  What makes the Mojo unique is that it takes most of the backend from the Voodoo and mellows it out with a particle coverstock, allowing it to be used on a wider range of conditions.  If you like strongish balls as your primary ball this is very good, as it can be used through all the mediums, with and without carrydown.  I've had two.  And just picked up a new one.  Very nice stuff.

my mojo is one of the smoothest balls i've thrown. this ball is the second most hooking ball in the Track Magic line up(crunch is under track magic too, wich is the most hooking ball)..

i put a 600 wet sand surface on this ball when i went for a national tournament, and this ball kept me on the sports lanes with recovery.

drill it for length, but remember, it's still gonna give you a strong arc.  i recommend that you drill it for carrydown.
