All balls you asked about would be best on heavier shots, personally, I think the most versatile and probably best of the 4 is the Action Max, it makes the strongest move on the backend of the 4 balls, good when carrydown starts to show up.

yeah, what i am looking for is a ball for heavy oil conditions... I currently have an action, but I am having difficulty using it in heavy oil conditions... which ball should I have then?? which would be stronger than my action... would love to have a ball that would snap hard in the backend in the heavy oil conditions... Also, why was the epx t1 discontinued??

EPX T1 is approved. It just had some cracking issues. It just may be the ball with the most total hook on the market but the coverstock cracking scared alot of people away.
