Overall, this is probably the best medium-low end range ball I have ever drilled. It gets through the front part of the lane as clean as can be. The ball makes a very strong arcing motion and is very continuous. It is the perfect choice on any carry-down. It’s length and continuous motion maximize pin carry. I shot 850 last week with the ball on a burned up light volume house pattern. I also had been using it games 2 and 3 of the sport shot league I bowl in on the U.S. Open Pattern. Once a little bit of oil pushes down the lane and there is any hold whatsoever, this ball is second to none!

COMMENTS
I drilled this ball specifically for extreme dry and short patterns;
I don’t throw this much on a THS without taking some hand out of the ball. This
ball almost rolls out if it encounters too much oil.
On a 40ft 90 Unit THS I start this ball playing 8 at the
arrows out to 8 at the break point.
