It's pretty versatile.  basically any conditions revolving around medium.  You can get it to flip or arc depending on layout, cover prep and bowler stats.

low rg plus pk18=smooth. This ball will not flip too much even when polished, I would say its most similar to a v2 sanded.

What's interesting is that it is technically a pearl reactive ball, but pk18.  It can flip, but not as much as other covers like stanski said.  You'd be better off just going for a smooth reaction than forcing it.

BowlerKidR - the Smash/R in box finish will be the perfect complement to your Punisher.

Drilled with the pin next to the ring finger and the cg stacked, what type of reaction should be expected? I'm wondering if I should use it in the first game of a second shift league. Also, how good is this ball in carrydown?

if you want this ball to skip flip  drill it pin in the palm, cg kicked right/low with a weight 3 out and drop 3/4.
