Any need for a Road Hawg and Hawg Wild?
« on: January 04, 2007, 10:54:36 PM »
Hey everyone,

I have the chance to pick up both of these in good condition for cheap. I haven't really seen either of them thrown a great deal, so I was wondering what you all thought about placing both within the same arsenal. I understand that drilling and prep make all the difference in the world, but, in general, how do these two compare in terms of conditions used, ball motion, etc, etc. Any insight you can provide will be appreciated.

The Hawg Wild is going to be a lot smoother than the Road Hawg in terms of the reaction. The HW will be a strong arcing ball for med-heavy lanes. The RH has the "Juiced" coverstock, which has similar technology to the coverstock on the One balls from Ebonite. This ball will go deeper down the lanes, and make a more aggressive turn in the backend. I'm not sure which one will handle the most oil, but I think it would be the Road Hawg.
