 Anyone remeber the old NRG? What reaction did you guys see from it? Was it a good ball?

Not Really Good..

No wonder why I hate throwing main stream stuff.

 

<sarcasm on>Never mind if it is good, I will make it good <sarcasm off>

Just tell me about the ball reaction, every one told me that the Hole Pounder Pearl stunk but I made a decent amout of money with it

I liked this ball very much. I had it teamed with an Omega LM. At the time, the LM was the oil ball in my area, so I took some polish to this ball and it rolled through the heads very well with the polish. Nothing herky jerky about the ball from what I remember.

Basically this was Track's answer to the Columbia Primal Rage,just uglier. Very similar reaction shape and total hook. Was not a bad ball but just not anything special

 So the Track NRG of 1995 was the answer to Columbias 1997 Primal Rage?

I had a NRG as it was the the ball to get at the time.  I never had it drilled the way I liked it, had three different drillings put on it with different surfaces.  It always seemed to be very erratic...  And it looked like a turd going down the lane. 

 

Now if you've come across some other older track stuff like the Purple Critical Mass... I would give you a definite thumbs up!
