Title: Clutch Mini
Post by: golfnutFL on August 10, 2009, 03:53:59 PM: Used it for 2 games tonight in the summer men's league. This ball is as strong as any other ball on the market on a fresh oil shot (think Rogue Cell, Virtual Gravity, Dynamo) with a strong (strong!) hard arc to the pocket. I shot 297 (big choke) first game and 204 2nd game. I should have put it away after 15 frames, the lanes were breaking down quick, but I wanted to see how deep I could play with the ball. I had 15 out of 16 strikes before I reached a point where I was coming in from too deep (for me) and left a couple of splits. Amazing ball for the price, I can't believe how much backend energy this thing has. This ball will be great in the fall when the oil doesn't break down as quickly.
