What is your benchmark ball?
« on: September 27, 2016, 08:05:20 AM »
Mine is currently a Pitch black. I actually balled up to a Ride last night  ;D currently wondering where the oil is that allows people to throw mid to low strength equipment!

For me, if it is not broke, don't fix it. Tried a ton of stuff over the last 5 years but I always migrate back to Visionary. Orange/Black Ogre is always first out of my bag and some can still be had although the ball is close to a decade old now.

Hammer Scandal for me

Just curious, what do you "ball up" to if the Scandal is your benchmark?

He goes to the Dynamo X2
GTx2

Forza was a great benchmark ball for me. Now I am using the GT and I am loving it.
