Okay so I've got a Total on the way, I'm usually one not to get all worked up on all the talk and such but I am seeing quite a few confused and disappointed Total Inferno postings. Myself I am wanting this ball for a medium to not quite too heavy oil conditions. What's the scoop? Any positive feedback on this one yet? - thanks

Drilled mine up yesterday too.    Pin is 5" from pap, above my ring finger, im LOVING it so far.  Most versatile ball ive seen in a long time.   I was dissapointed at first, cause i could play the same line with the TI that i was playing with my Doom.  Then i decided to move around.  I pretty much played wherever i wanted on the lane, the ball would come back HARD.  

1 thing i will say. Throw it BEFORE drilling a weight hole.  I was going to add a weight hole to get a bit more flare.  I threw the ball for about a game, then went to check where i was flaring(the bowling alley is VERY dark).  We checked, & i was flaring over to where the weight hole would be.  I measured, im not over flaring at all, its just about perfect as far as separation.

the Pain DEFINATELY handles right above the doom.  If there is just enough oil out there for where the doom wont finish, the pain will(i also have a pain).  Just drill it identical & it will do what u want.

As for the TI, i would say its definately above my Doom also.  I CAN play the same line(on an easy house shot), as my doom, but its a different shape, i can also play MUCH deeper than my doom can go.

I think either will work nicely for u.  If it makes a difference, so far, i like the TI better than my pain.

I might actually sell the pain & buy another TI & drill it VERY agressive, that or get a mammoth.
