This ball is going to be a house shot killer.

I saw King Kobra play at the Edgewater in Twin Lakes, WI.  Carmine Appice was killin' it on drums.

i have had my king cobra for 2 weeks and i left it factory to throw it to see how it reacts and with surface on house shot picked up mid lane and rolled smooth the rest of the way so then i went in to our local shop and had it polished and now will clear the front very well and leave all the energy for the back part of the lane and mows through the pocket very well with plenty of hitting power going to be a good ball to have in the bag for ths or even some of the sport patterns very well rounded ball for the f55 cover stock.  dont forget the release date is February 4th.

Holy early hook!!! I drilled mine and threw it a little Tuesday in league. At the oob surface it is super early and keeps hooking. Very smooth and continuous. I'm gonna hit mine with a t pad and see what happens before i polish it but i think polish might have to happen with this one...
