anyone still throwin the V2 pearl Trimax?
« on: January 15, 2005, 03:54:19 AM »
my buddy gave me this ball last week so i decided to plug and redrill it. i repunched it back in the spot he had it drilled.. basic 130 over the label layout. i was very surprised how much area this ball had. if i sent it out it came back, if i tugged it, the ball held.

this could be one of the best league balls out there!!

anyone know where i might be able to find another in 15#??

what are your experiences with this ball?

pizz, I stated my experience in the topic of "What Happened To The V2 Sweet" which is nothing short of great, terrific, etc. for the V2 Pearl. I'll never know why they quit making it as seems that almost everyone that had one loved it.

If you hear of a 14# V2 Pearl, please let me know. (Pin must be beside or under RF)

i will definitely keep an eye out,

they probably stopped making the V2 pearl Trimax because they started marketing just the name "V2". i think if u got a v2 sanded and kept a nice shine on it, you would be surprised how similar the pearl and the sanded are. i dont know the exact rg characteristics and all that, but i can assure u.. the v2 sanded will not disappoint u.

I had a v2 and threw a 298 with it in my summer league. It was a great ball when I used it. Becarefull if you run into some juice though, it will backup on you.

I loved my V2 Pearl. This was always the first ball out of my bag. I have since dropped to 14# and wish I had another. Does anyone know of a 14# NIB with a 2"-3" Pin anywhere?

i throw mine once in a while but lately the lanes have been too dry for it(ive got a rolly drill on it and add that to the low rg core) and it just rolls out at about 45 feet.

used to love it though...just not right now..its got my highest game on it though.

pin under ring cg below that and a touch to the right with a weighthole inside val and lower than pap.(it was given to me with this drill)

I have a 15lb V2 Pearl that I'm not using. Only has about 20 games on it.

I have a V2 Pearl righty with the span slightly adjusted.

Great ball!!!!  On a league shot with hold it is awesome!

If I keep the polish near 2000 and have good speed it is unstoppable.

Big move!
