how does the BadAss compare to the Arson Low Flare Solid?
« on: January 29, 2015, 06:27:46 PM »
Is the BadAss a stronger ball than the Low Flare solid? BTM reviews says that the Low Flare Solid is a 9.5 on medium and 8 on dry, the badass review says 8 on medium and 9 on dry. Im confused. I have the badass and planning on getting the Low flare as a step down..Am I going backwards?

from Hammer website - LF solid  http://www.hammerbowling.com/products/balls/arson-low-flare-solid

BI - http://www.hammerbowling.com/products/balls/bad-intentions

LFS says medium to light oil
BI says medium to heavy oil

from what im hearing the LFS is approx 4 boards stronger than OG low flare

The Bad Ass is cleaner through the fronts & more backend than the ALF Solid.
The ALF Solid is a continuous rolling piece that is perfect for the medium/lighter patterns (blends out the patterns).

What ball motion are you looking for?

A smooth reaction when lanes transition.nothingg angular, a ball to fit between my bad ass and motiv ascent apex.
