Just curious if anyone uses their Hero in a high friction environment? Bowl in a dry house league where see balls like Strike Kings and Slingshots. Curious if might be able to polish crap out of it and use it as there as I hear the ball is amazing. Maybe at least as a game 1 first out of bag ball. Thanks.

If there's really a bunch of Strike Kings and Slingshots, the Rhinos, Twists, and Counter Attacks would be the better options in the current lineup.
If you wanted something with a little higher diff, you could probably find a Cutting Edge Solid or Pearl for cheap. I think both are a little weaker than the Hero

Thanks kind of what I was afraid of. Oh well luckily plenty of other houses in area I can use it. Must have ball for under $120.

The Hero is very early/smooth for a sym pearl

As previously mentioned, the Hero is quite early to be used in those types of situations. Rhinos or Counter Attacks would be much better I think.

Personally I'm getting a Hydra or hustle ink as a ball down from my Hero
If Brunswick puts dynamicore in a light oil ball with a dialed back core... I'm in immediately

Even Hustle Ink is probably pushing it as dry as this place gets. Don't really care about dynamicore but DOT in a very mild ball I could go for.

RG Hustle Ink is a lot stronger than most would think for a light oil ball.

What year is this? “Polish the crap out of it� Why? That’ll make it either not do anything or go sideways.

More thinking polish and then put on slip agent but yeah one way ticket to over under. Back to putting a little bit of surface on my Slingshot. Hero square peg at this house.

I have a REALLY dry house & on that one my top ball is the Brunswick Twist & I ball DOWN to a Motiv Rebel tank Pearl\Urethane or BTU Pearl. SOMETIMES theres enough oil that a Hustle Ink OOB can roll there but in no way can the Hero.
The Ink with a 2000/4000 is close to my Hero, they are both stronger. I've been polishing the crap out of the Ink to try to differentiate them again but honestly like you... I think we need a different ball to ball down. I feel like the 73 that they put on the website for its hook number is a bit off. It hooks more than the Melee Jab SE they put at 80 & as much as the Uppercut from the videos I was watching last night.
Again. I think I need a ball down from the Hero & have to accept it is what it is, a fairly strong benchmark, not a late in the block low oil skid flip piece
Motiv covers this better with the Hydra or supra

Yeah since switched to a four man league from triples at this house for the 2nd half of season (and my team only had 2 of us before) probably going to end up using my Blue Hammer remake for game 3 especially if come across any fools throwing a SPEC ball or something.
