Titan SE
« on: December 31, 1969, 06:00:00 PM »
Ball NPS Score: Not Available
Good to Great the original Titan just got better. The R&D Team at AMF300 combined the winning core & coverstock from the pearl to form the Titan SE. The modified pyramid shaped core is one of the most forgiving cores ever created. The solid reactive Super-Flex cover provides the traction needed to match up to today''s conditions.

I'm a low-rev bowler bowling over the 2nd arrow.  This ball does OK on dry and gets its share of strikes, but on wetter league conditions, this ball has little break and hits like a marshmellow.  Leaves a lot of 10 and 7 pins.  Also, if you're the slightest bit short, the 5 leave is a sure thing.  It was supposed to be a great ball, but all I'm going to use it for is spares.

Got mine a couple weeks ago. Came with a 2" pin and about 2 1/2 oz tw. Drilled it with pin over ring and CG stacked directly beneath ring finger.  Goes longer than my Maximum Velocity, and turns harder.  Practiced the last couple days with in on synthetic lanes with heavy oil (basically a heavy oil sport shot)38 feet.  She goes pretty straight down the 10 board and then banks hard into the pocket!  On a drier lane condition, I simply move a little left and shoot the 10, she goes long and turns sooner, and harder.  Great ball for carry-down, so far.

First things first, awsome looking ball! More importantly...

Laid the ball out 4X4. Looking for it to work well for me on medium-dry good midlane with a strong backend. Get really good mid-lane with the SE, but wow was i surprised how much it actually hooks! takes surface changes very well, and hits great! carry is very good as well.

overall i'm very happy with this ball. it does hook a lot more than i had expected, but what a nice surprise. very forgiving as well!

overall about a 9/10.

Let me start out by saying this ball is just amazing.  This can be used very easily as a bench mark ball.  Cover on this is very easy to alter.  I have three of theese drilled up.  I am a stroker that throws around 18.5-19.0.  I have used these on anything from medium-heavy to medium dry.  

Titan 1- Box specs are 15.03, Top is 2 1/4, pin is 1.5-2.  I have this one drilled 5x4 dropped 10:30 otherwise known as Rico drilling.  This one I just drilled have not been able to use it much, but have found out that with this drilling it is very smooth and predictable.  I do have the ball sanded to 1000 no polish.  I have not been able to use on anything other than a tournament shot oiled 44 feet at a 2:1 ratio so will have to wait a bit for more of a review on this drilling.

Titan 2-  Box specs are 15.03, Top 3 1/2 and a 1in pin.  This ball is drilled 5 1/2 X 4 7/8.  Pin is in the middle of the bridge and 1in under.  Weight hole is  5 1/8 in a line pin through CG.  This one I use on light to medium when there is carry down that a pearl just seems to go to long.  I get a nice early roll with this one and it still has plenty of energy left for great carry.  I used this one alot on the Sport League when they used the short oil pattern which was 35ft. on synthetics.  If you get anymore then a medium light pattern with this drilling put it away.

Titan 3-  This is my Benchmark Titan SE.  Box specs on this one 15.03, Top 3, and pin 3inches.  I have this one drilled pin next to RF 3 7/8 X 3 7/8.  It has a weight hole 3 1/8 from grip center.  I have kept this one in box surface.  This I can use on medium to heavy without a problem.  Reads the lanes very well and has a very hard snap when it hits the backends.  This also handles carrydown very well.  When they start to dry up you can just move in and swing it alittle more without any recovery problems.

This ball is by far the best mid priced Solid ball I have used in a long time.  I have changed the surfaces on all of them and had no problems when I went back to original.

Just wanted to give AMF some love.  I have had this ball since last year and it is becoming one of my favorites.  I had not thrown it much of late but decided to pull it out during a practice session.  Fall/winter leagues are coming so i just wanted to get more familuar with some of my stuff, besides working off a little rust.  Well, i am very pleased with the way the ball performed.  Threw just 2 games with it 245 & 268.  Had a string of 13 strikes from 8th frame of first game to a tap in the 9th of second game.  The ball hits very hard and sends pins flying.  Think i will be picking up more AMF soon.  My old original Slam is still in my bag also and performing great also.

Just wanted to give AMF some love on a good release.  Ball is controlable and hits with athority.  During a practice session strung together 14 strikes with it. Ball destroyed the rack each time up to the tap on 15. Still have my old Slam that is still performing great also.  Will be trying more AMF soon.

I got this ball as a replacement to my old Columbia 300 Pulse Pearl.  Pin is 3", drilled with CG in center of grip and pin 1" to the right of the ring finger.  The ball has a great, smooth hook that's pretty forgiving.  It hooked a little too much at first so I polished it, and it took to the polish really well.  It hooks a little early on drier lanes but it can still be controlled pretty easily.
