Not too much help.  Probably a med/heavy oil ball in it's day.  Probably still good for at least medium oil or a little more today.  Hopefully it's new.  The covers they used on the Chaos series were famous for TEC death.  Usually great balls for 50-75 games, then lost a lot of hook and carry.

back in their day they were the hooking ball that columbia put out.  That thing moved so hard compared to anything else they made it was rediculous.  I figure it would probably be a great medium to heavy oil ball now a days.  Its definately not as strong as some of the newer balls but it can still hold its own.  Hope this helps.

had one over 1000 games on it, I liked it oil soaked as it became more reactive like, once it got to a certain stage it was very long and angular for me
