Both are incredible balls. As a slightly Speed dominate lefthander I drill more stronger equipment. The Absolute I would say, with all things being equal, is stronger down lane. Stores more energy thru the head and makes a continuous strong turn. The Grudge reads a tad earlier but still provides a great continuous motion. either was you can not go wrong with both of these balls.

used the Absolute on Chameleon last night and played 6 - 3 for all 4 games shooting 955. Just a beast.

Too me the Absolute Nirvana has more midlane than my Grudge,the Grudge isn't a bad ball but I think the Absolute Nirvana is stronger overall and more continuous and has a stronger motion down lane on the backend(I've also compared it to my Dark Legend Solid and No Rules and to me it out shines them both)

I can't imagine a ball out hooking the Grudge.  That's disgusting

I have to say that the Absolute Nirvana has surprised me as to its' strength from the mid-lane and through the pin deck. 

I've only used it on sport patterns to date, but that's a good test.  Nearly any ball can look good on the THS.

The Grudge appears to be a bit earlier and smoother.  The Absolute is a bit stronger in terms of boards covered and handles volume very well.
