Darn right! Go get yourself that Dirty Look, sevenpin. Geez.

And you Pike, go get that Nuts Pearl drilled.

Stalkers. :P

Already got it Doom, and Drilled. Used it last night, just what the Doctor prescribed. ;D

How did you lay your Dirty Look out? I have one sitting at the shop that I plan on punching up next week.

First I will tell you I am a lefty.

Pin just below my ring finger with CG kicked out the left.

                                X  X
                               0
                             0   X

All I can say is very, very easy length. With good back end pop. Not a hook monster but good back end move. This ball lets me play straighter and will get through the heads with ease.

I too am a lefty so we share this gift in common lol. I drilled up my Freight Train like your Dirty Look just with a weight hole added. It's my oiler/tournament ball so I've been toying with the idea of putting the pin above the bridge but since the ball has very easy length it may skid too long so I may go pin to the left of my ring or pin over ring. I will let you know when I punch it up next week.

Drilled my bullet train on Thursday. Threw it in the only league it would have a chance in. Went with 75 x 5.25 x 75. Put the pin under my middle finger and put a coat of polish by hand on it. Rolled great game one and struck every shot that i the it good. Had one shot bad timing and missed it and threw it out the window. Then missed a move and left a 6 pin went 256. Then i got pulled for lucky digit and had to get a 7 count and win a grand. And after that i was a little too pumped and lost my speed. Should have put it away as they transitioned cause it wasburning up in the front part of the lane and if i didn't really get around it i was leaving a variation of a bucket. I an considering polishing it but might just leave it and put it away as soon as its time to move. This cover is super strong as that layout is very low flare and it still uses a lot of energy in the front if the lane. I'll probably only be able to throw it in that league or tournaments but if i get more chances to throw it I'll give a full review...

Oh YES a lot more than the Frantic, the ball works great. It has that backend pop I was looking for without it having to hook the whole lane.
Easy length with good backend movement.

Just a head's up we'll be reviewing this ball very soon.
We'll have 3 staff testers, stroker, tweener, and cranker test on THS and sport shot.  We also use Digitrax so should give us good details.
We don't see very much 900 Global around our parts but looking forward to seeing what the Bullet Train does.
