I threw the ball on a supposed fresh shot ( watched the machine waiting for league).  I'm not sure what synthetics they have.  I tried to go straighter with it and playing anywhere between 1-12.  I could not for the life of me be able to kick the ten out. When I adjusted my hand position, I started to come up high and leaving the four pin.  Had 1 open frame in each of the first 2 games and have 2 strikes way far apart in each game and the rest spares. Shot 187, 181 respectively.  I decided I was going to move far left and start crossing boards(not my A game but I am versatile and comfortable playing these angles if needed)  I start out with a ring ten the strung the next 6 then a ten then a strike then a ten and finished with a 245.  It appears I may need to place a hole on my axis to calm it down. I was quite surprised as how strong this ball is. I went with this ball since I liked the Break series but the covers were too strong.  I thought this would fill a gap but it didn't for OOB.  I will tinker with surface first of course. My impression of this ball so far is positive.  However, I do not agree with what the information says about this ball. Much stronger.
