Title: Close to a melee jab

What ball in the Brunswick lineup would best resemble the melee jab.

For Brunswick specifically it would probably be the Fanatic. In terms of the Brunswick family overall I think a lot of people have compared the Freakshow favorably to the Melee Jab.

For me, I have a pin up vandal that's pretty close to a pin down MJ. Vandal makes the corner a little sharper. For what it's worth.

From what I've read, the Fire Quantum seems to be worth looking into as a replacement for the Jab.

I believe the Freakshow (pearl) is closest, however, you'd like the Fanatic and probably love the Fire Quantum.

I don't think anyone can hate the Fire Quantum

I know that certain balls match up with certain styles, but for me the Fire Quantum is hard to put down.  It LOVES the house shots that I see.
