Pick your 4 ball Track Arsenal
« on: April 19, 2005, 03:41:08 AM »
Open post to the Track followers:

4 Ball Arsenal

Yes, I know it may be difficult (it is for me), but, if you were faced with only bringing 4 balls to league/tournament/practice/whatever else, what would be the 4 Track balls you currently own that you would bring. Doesn’t need to be in current line, you can use any discontinued balls as well.

Here is mine-

GP2-Heavy
Xception-Mediums
Hexplosion- Light medium
Heat(new remake)-Drier

I think I could cover almost anything I see outside of the Sahara……

This will sound silly, but I think it would work pretty well!:
Heavy:  Slash @ 400-grit
Medium/Heavy: Slash OOB
Medium: Slash with Magic Shine
Light: Slash with Clean N' Polish or Delayed Reaction

What I would want would be:
Heavy: GP2
Medium/Heavy: Rule
Medium: Xception
Light: Heat

What I have:
Heavy: Animal
Medium/Heavy: Rule
Medium: Freak-A-Zoid (or Rule with Clean N' Polish)
Light: NONE

An all Slash arsenal....yummy!

I just got a fully plugged Critical Mass in mint condition.  I can't wait to drill that baby up, it's one of my all time favorites.  I love my Slash so much in oil, I want to get another and go 5 1/2 pin to PAP and a nice coat of Ebonite Factory Finish Polish(what would be the track product equivalent?) to get me through the start of most league conditions.

DP3:

It's been a long time since I used Ebonite's Factory Finish, but I would say Magic Shine would be the closest.  I like MS a little better because it keeps the agressiveness of the ball intact.

If I had to choose

Track Assassin
Track VooDoo
Track Xception
Track Slash

 

SuperHitMan, You won't get far with the Assassin in oil. I believe most people will agree with me on the GP2 or the Arsenal Aggressive as being much better choices.

I am going to hijack this thread a bit...

I am creating a Track ABC/USBC/Team USA arsenal...4 balls..

Here is what I have...:-))))))

Slash....3 3/8 X 5..box condition..(for the longer patterns..)
Exception...5 X 4...(pin centered over bridge - MB inch right of thumb)
Heat....(haven't drilled yet)
Hexplosion...(haven't drilled yet)

Thinking:
Heat....4 x 4...control type ball
Hexplosion 5 X 3 or so...something long with arc on the dry stuff..(like Team USA short pattern..)

Have a Sheer Havoc that isn't punch that may go in this somewhere....

What do you think??
