Untamed "Underated"
« on: January 14, 2005, 03:36:43 AM »
I shot my second 300 in 3 months with the Animal Untamed last night(238,238,300). This time as a sub in a house and league that I had never been in before. This ball has been a big surprise since I hated the Mutant with the same core. I actually didn't like this one with the out of box surface. I used Clean and Sheen then followed it up with a light coat of Clean and Polish. It is drilled Pin 3 3/8" and MB 5" from my PAP. This is my go to ball when the lanes break down and the Freak Out or Freak-A-Zoid is hooking to much. Smooth through the Heads and smooth consistent, arcing recovery back end.

If you can get this ball cheap on a closeout somewhere you should do so. I think this ball can be very versatile with different drillings.

dw,

DEFINATELY!!!! I believe that the release date (close to the end of the league season) hurt this very UNDERRATED ball.

Congrats! I agree, the Untamed is not appreciated as much as it should be/been. Great cover and core. Ball has a nice fit in the Track line for me. I needed another one after mine was ruined in a ball return incident, the second time it happened to me this year (first was an Unleashed with about 12 games on, big gouge out of the track).

DW,

Good shooting!  Mine hits like a tank, harder than anything else I have...
I've been whacking everything in sight since I drilled mine...

I have only used my AU in two league sessions. Monday night, except for two errant shots, I was looking at a 300. It wouldn't have ever happened but I can always dream.

I had nine strikes interspersed with two open frames and only 9 on the third ball of the tenth.

If I can solve the thumb problem, hanging up, I think a 300 is close.

Congrats. Good luck in your quest to 300! It will happen when you least expect it.
