Ball driller is on staff, similar move to the Warrior, strong piece. He threw it a couple of games in league and it hooks.

Sorry, attended a 4 State Convention this week. Hope to put holes in it for Monday. Also attending Trade Show wed in Houston. The always clashing Bowl Inventory is Thursday.
I am tired just talking about it. Also, we can only describe in vague response.  Local is your avenue till we can say more. :)

Your new bowling ball is writing checks your body can't cash.

Sanded Balls are not supposed to get that far down the lane and then HOOK.
Too strong for league last week, haven't bowled in over two weeks. Passed it to one of my guys, 16 mph. Gave it back to me in 3 shots.  TOO STRONG.
He uses the Supreme. Got to love it when a ball Hooks too much.
Cash that check.  :)

So if you added a little polish to the Maverick, would it have a skid-snap reaction? The few videos and reviews I've seen and read thus far all seem to agree that this ball stores a lot of energy for the backend and has a strong move off the end of the pattern. Seems like to me with a little polish after bringing down the base grit to 500 or 1000 it might have a similar motion to the Mastermind Intellect I'm trying (forced) to replace.

And I was just about to ask how it would compare to the Warrior Supreme.

Makes me wonder if I should pull that one out in place of the Warrior.

Sanded The Maverick to 4000, still more than the Warrior Supreme. I can use the Supreme for first game in League. Will try polish on the Maverick for next week. Having good success with Mission Unknown 14 lbs. Had to actually take one out of stock. Like buying it. Haven't done that in forever. Wodka and Mitch using new ? balls in Reno this week. They won't even tell us. Oh well.

Ball is very strong used on heavy oil and out hooked my radical master by about 3-4 boards has great continuation thru the pins. goes longer than expected. also shot on monday nite 43 foot ths and ball hit harder than any ball ive thrown. had to play deep inside and carrydown did not effect this ball at all. very impressed by Ebonite's last few releases.

I'm seriously wondering how this compares to the Warrior Supreme. I'm really tempted to swap it out for the Maverick.

Supreme is quite a bit smoother overall and doesn't go as long. Probably a tad weaker too. They actually complement each other really well.

Thanks! I think you just made up my mind!
