Title: Over Drive

What was wrong with this ball ? Why didn't it sell ? Was it to rolly or did it not hook enough?

not sure why this ball didnt come around but it was a great ball. i have drilled 4 1/2 by 2 and then took it to negative which made it really smooth.

All I can say is read my reviews. I had both and they bothed worked real well, the normal drive itself worked right below the Overdrive when the lanes got a little to dry on the heads. I loved this line, it is just a shame that they didnt put it at the highend range. I mean it had the core of the alter ego(mid end ball), the coverstock of the full throttle (Highend ball) Why didnt it get put at a high end range. I mean if they would have these balls would have sold great.

The alter ego was actually a mid-range ball.

The color was ugly, otherwise it was a great ball. I believe color was a major factor for the U-Turn not staying around longer as well....

I found this core to be very strong!  I have 4 drives.

REgards,

PS seems to really desire a blend of oil for me...very jumpy otherwise.
Have not drilled my Alter Ego!
