This is a hard hitting ball.  It has good lengh and awesome backend.  The covestock is reactive and can be altered to whatever you need.  On mediun to dry oil you can hook or swing it.  On a more oily lane you can throw it straight up the boards.  Good for anyones arsenal, can combat all kinds of lanes with the right adjustments.

bowling is only fun when your doing good

I got one of these recently in a 14lbs. 3 inch pin 2.5 ounces
of top weight.

After using this ball for a couple of weeks I have to say I was really
impressed with the physical beauty of this ball. Though it not really a
big hook ball it has mucho power and pocket hits carry quite well.

In my hand this is definately no hook in a box ball at all. It has a slow arc to the pocket at the very end. I have been using it on medium oil in practice since I got it, I'd say i used on THS. In my experience it was basically a straight up the 3rd arrow kind of ball with a slight turn at the end. I don't throw swing shots so I am not sure if it is capable of that but in someone elses hand it might work.

This ball reminds me of using a urethane ball with little turn and great hit and carry. Not sure yet if I will try this in a league condition or not I need to use it more and get comfortable with the way it has to be thrown to strike.

Still a great ball, probably turns more in a drier lane and I think it would help defeat carry down conditions because it turns so little for me.

Well,
I had one of these drilled by Frankie May at the ABC Nationals and all I can say is WOW! This is by far the most powerful pearl ball I have ever had in my hand. It is drilled stacked with the pin and CG 1" right and this ball goes down the lane and turns hard for the pocket! I was averaging 197 at a house with a rough inconsistent shot and the last three weeks with this ball I have shot 685, 717 and 661 series. What a ball!

i got this ball about 5 months ago, and its great, it came at 13#, pin was 2", and top weight is 2.05, i threw it on a typical house shot, with 38 ft of oil, and it made a strong, but predictable arc to the pocket, and ive scored my highest game witht his ball, although i dont use it anymore because i upgraded to 14# balls, but it is a great ball, especially for a pearl.

Great ball. I use it when nothing else seems to be working. It has never not once failed to deliver.It is drilled stacked and I can use it on dry lanes as well as semi oily. Very careful with this ball as I do not want to over work it.They are hard to get and very costly when you can.Ball hits hard and stays on the line, has great color and looks good going down the lane. It does leave corner pins if you get the angle wrong as it enters the pocket. I bowl in three houses and this ball delivers the high flush better then any thing I throw.Go get one if you can find it.
