Pretty ball with an excellent reaction...

I have 2 one pin down @ 2000 and one pin up OOB

The pin down @ 2000 can handle a good amount of volume...has incredible continuation and power....best AMF ball i have thrown to date!

I'd ask Eric to be sure, but I believe sometime in March. Not 100% sure, however.

We are pushing orders now, PBA approval on Monday, USBC approval to follow, once that happens shipping will turn loose.  So expected in shop date will be right around the 3/3 timeline.

Eric,

I am sure this has been discussed somewhere, but what condition will the code be mainly for? Thanks!

Medium to heavy oil.  Ball looks great on a sport shot, helps blend the pattern.  I believe BAR's video was done on shark?

So all things considered, this ball would be more aggressive than the Nighthawk pearl?

Thanks Brit....looks like a decision between the Code and the Break Pearl.

Yep! In terms of how the Code will fit in with the rest of the AMF and 900G gear, what I've gathered is (in order of oil handling, most to least):

AMF Radar Alert
900G Break
AMF Code
900G Break Pearl / AMF Radar Lock
AMF Hei$t / AMF Nighthawk Solid
AMF Nighthawk Pearl / 900G Creature Solid
AMF Orbit Extreme Solid / 900G Creature Pearl
AMF Orbit Extreme Pearl
AMF Angle Reactive
AMF Angle Urethane

Compared to the Break Pearl, I'd anticipate the Code being slightly earlier with a more arcing (but still strong) backend reaction. The Break Pearl will push further down the lane, and then most likely cover the same boards...you'll just maybe need to know where the dry boards are, etc., so as to take full advantage of the uber-strong backend.

The only thing i disagree with on that list (for me anyway) is where the Hei$t is...i think it can handle a good amount of volume, more so than the break pearl and radar lock...other than that its a good list rev!

My videos (AMF Code, 900 global Break Pearl, 900 Global Creature Pearl) should be ready for monday @ the latest...maybe sooner!

Everybody has slightly different opinions, of course. OOB, the Hei$t just went far too long...and even after I knocked the polish off, it still gets good length before making its "benchmark" move.

With a stronger drill than I have on mine, I could also see the Hei$t move up a notch.
