Threw this ball (pin at 2" above bridge) at a demo day recently. Loved it!
It is a pearl shell but it felt like a solid with lots of hold and continuation!
I bought one but have not punched it up yet.

TAKE DOWN –

And I thought the Smack Down was versatile.  I’m here to tell you that the Take Down is even or exceeds its predecessor in versatility.  Because I have found multiple purposes and conditions for my Smack Down, when the Take Down was released I felt this would be a perfect compliment.

Taking that consideration to heart I set up my Take Down identically as my SD… 70 x 5 x 45.  As mentioned in the balls overview on Columbia300.com, the Take Down comes with some surface so for my purposes I polished it out of the box using Power House Factory Finish. 

All I can say is that I love when a plan comes together.  Very smooth and easy to control.  Now the Smack and Take Down’s are a regular part of my traveling arsenal.  When I need that extra length, the Take Down is right there to fill the gap. 

Pros – versatility
Cons – none so far
