Mike,

VERY difficult one there bud. I have not had my Assassin for some time now. Not just because of the core design, I tend to lean towards the Sheer Havoc. If you drill it to flip it will, if you drill it to roll it will.

Very good ball.

It could be, but if you research the 2 balls, you will notice the Blue has a higher diff and Rg (2.54, .052) than the Enforcer (2.49, .047) or Assassin (same as Enforcer). They must have changed the densities or something else in the ball. Plus, the WOW 2 is pretty strong, not that the Fang in the Sheer isn't. Sheers #s are 2.47, .048.

Based off of that, you could probably get an Assassin like reaction out of the Blue if you polished it up enough. I don't know if it will/won't, have not even seen it yet or thrown it. Sheer is probably VERY close, at least the closest I know of without the Blue.

Hey bowler0821,

I haven't drilled my Blue Heat yet so I can't say for sure but I'd say it's between that ball and the Sheer with a slight cover adjustment.  I'll know more very soon....

I do not if this will help you, but there is a bowling site that does
ball comparisons.  try: www.bowlingballinfo.com
use the bowling ball comparison tab.

good luck,
