Absolute Truth/Respect
« on: August 17, 2018, 09:39:42 AM »
How similar would these balls be assuming same surface?  hypothetically 1500 polished.

Absolute Truth is going to be earlier with a much smoother backend motion then an OG Respect(cleaner with a sharper BE) but if you are comparing it to a Respect Solid the motions will be similar. Differences in that case would be the Absolute would hook about 2 more boards downlane for an average rev rate player slightly more for a high rev guy.

Respects have much more torque to them in the way they transition from skid to hook where the Truth series seems to tumble more through the midlane with a smoother path to the pocket.

Personally, Eon would be the closest. Strong torquey core, fast response cover.

Eon in the current line up would be the closest.  If you can find a Truth pearl that is also close to the OG Respect depending on the pattern you used in them.  To get a Skid/Snap motion the Respect was know for use a longer Pin to PAP distance (like 5") with a short pin buffer (Something like 5x45x25)

Sorry Doom,

I injured my shoulder over the summer and I'm working back to health now.  Wouldn't due justice to shoot video's in my current state but once I'm fully healed back up you will see a video or two..  ;D

Not gonna lie, I'd like to put holes in another Respect and just drill it different. I didn't like my first one, and I was in the VAST minority lol

Would the comparison be the same or similer vs a Moxie?

Absolute vs Moxie... I'd say the absolute is earlier and more.

Yeah the absolute was probably their best attempt at a remake of the moxie well I'll still probably being a replacement for the truth solid.

Was curious because I just picked up a NIB Absolute off Ebay for $75 shipped  and I had a Moxie before (sold it when I found out I was going to have my left leg amputated).  However my therapist said we will get me back bowling so I picked it up for oil
