Since the doctor finally has cleared me to start back bowling i have finally got a chance to throw both of these a little.  Both balls are drilled 5 x 3.5 (5x55x30, small 3/4" hole on axis. The Hype has been polished with Rough Buff,Extra shin and Diamond gloss. The Heist Pearl is OOB.

Hype urethane.
 Even polished this ball is remarkably strong. Having added polish to this ball i am able to play much closer to the friction than with my prior "weakest" ball (Link). The Hype for me clear So far i have seen the same motion ons the heads easy , it gets great length with a typical smooth backend reaction that urethane gives you. Where this ball really shines is in it's hitting power. It carries light hits as well as resin and loves high flush. I plan on drilling another soon and leaving it in OOB so i can move in the oil and swing to the dry without the over reaction of resin at the wood house i bowl tournaments at.

Heist Pearl
This ball reminds me quite a bit of the old Aftershock Pearl. As to be exprcted this ball gets great length It has a strong arcing backend movement without being flippy. So far both times i have thrown this ball the lanes have been very broken down. The ease whith which this ball gets through the heads was a very pleasant suprise. Once i get a few more games on these 2 pieces i will right a full review.

On just a quick note i've thrown about 6 shots so far with my Clutch Pearl. I have not seen enough head oil to get a grasp on where it will fit in the arsenal.I like what I have seen so far on far from ideal conditions considering how strong this ball is

I see you have a Cluth (solid) aswell?  What is you take on this ball?  I don't think that I care for it all that much.  I feel that the high RG with my higher ball speed is hurting how the ball should react.  

Of course it's pin up with CG kicked out 1.75" from GC so it's going to go longer...I just wonder what pin down would have done?

Well here is food for thought, I don't really want mine.  I drilled it 4-5 weeks ago, bowled a game and a half on Wednesday, 2 games on Thursday, 3 games the following week, then pot bowled on a Saturday night 6 games, 4 games the very next morning for travel league and then another game and a half just last Sunday.  All told it looks like 18 games, if you want I'll take a picture and you can see if your interesed, it would save a few bucks and it's got a good strong pin up layout, all you need to do is move the thumb.

It just doesn't fit my game, too high RG.  I don't want to throw it but it looks so cool I just can't leave it alone.  You would be doing me a favor.
