Finally got around to drilling mine once I found out the core and cover. Another excellent ball!! It's slightly earlier than the Threat with a stronger backend. Amazing read and recovery. I was impressed with the Threat and it's been one of my favorites but this ball is equally impressive. I really like the WOW 2 pearl covers. They provide good length, good midlane but with resin like recovery. I know scores aren't important but last night, I shot 286-266 straight out of the box (never been thrown) the last two games all while moving every 2-3 frames (yes, this house dries up that fast). The Thrash continuoulsy gave me read and recovery as I moved and never gave me that squirt through the midlane that's common with resin, especially as the track burns up but there's still oil in.
