15lb. Tornado Blue/Violet Tornado vs. 15lb. Spirit
« on: June 06, 2003, 09:47:43 AM »
***   (I'm talking about the 15lb version of the Spirit which has a dark blue coverstock.)   ***

They both have a High RG (with the Tornado being a little bit higher) and have a similar RG Differential (with the Tornado being a little bit higher, also).

Both balls go long and have a good strong backend.

I heard one time that the Spirit had a very light load particle cover on it, and then another time that it had a "pearl-like" coverstock.

Which one of these ball will handle Carrydown better than the other, and which one has a bigger backend?

My guess is that the Tornado has a bigger backend and it would be better for playing more Inside than the Spirit. And also, that the Tornado would handle Carrydown better... where as, the Spirit I think would maybe squirt, or be skiddish, on the Carrydown.


Am I right??? Or, do I have it backwards???



Thanks!
