I know the differences when it comes to reading the numbers and that. Just was wondering for people who have tossed both what they think the differeneces are.

Both get through the heads very easily, but the Bedlam is more snappy IMO

Is the Bedlam a solid or a pearl? Read the info but does not say.

Bedlam is pearlized...I use the Full Swing on almost everything, and go right to the Bedlam when transition hits, these two balls compliment each other very very well

Is there anything out there that is similar to them or are they just 2 different balls that are must haves?

from what i have seen the bedlam could be compared to the original momentum but more skid/snap.....i could be way off though

I would have to agree with everything in this post.
I just can't get enough of the BEDLAM, I have always liked a ball that changes direction a lot. This ball changes direction but also gives you length and control. Very aggressive and very controlable for how aggressive it is. Good for multiple lane conditions and will be good for multiple bowling styles.
FULL SWING is equally amazing. I have always had issues with finding a good ball for heavy oil because the ball uses all of its energy in the front and doesn't have a lot of movement in the back. I have used this ball on a few different heavy volume conditions and it just keeps hooking, and it hits like a ton of bricks. For the bowler who is looking for a ball that just flat out hooks, this will be the ball! Other current balls on the market claim to hook, and of course they do. However, these balls hook so much in the front part of the lane that it inevitably quits at the breakpoint. The FULL SWING has so much control with the amount of hook it just matches up great for the conditions out there today.
I think these two balls are just amazing and I think it has to do with the new FULL TILT coverstocks. The "Full Tilt 5.0" on the Full Swing and the "Full Tilt 4.0" on the Bedlam. Hopefully later in the year Columbia 300 will come out with some other balls with those coverstocks. The coverstocks on these two balls are so surface friendly that you can throw them with multiple surfaces and they all work. It's bad to say but there are a lot of bowling balls out there that once you touch the surface with any type of cleaners or polishes they just don't work the same. I have been able to change the surfaces on these two balls multiple times and they all give me great reactions.

Hey Mike,
Ya no problem on the information. Unfortunately I personally don't have any videos on the two bowling balls. But you can get a lot of information on www.columbia300.com they have videos on both of those bowling balls there. Any additional information get at me on my links below, I work in a shop full time in Vegas so I am always available for questions.
