I have one coming to me tomorrow. I'll let you know what I decide to do with mine. I might polish it so I can test it on our house shot since that's the only thing that will be out. Ultimately I'm planning on using it for mainly sport shots only so I'll keep it dull

I have played with surface adjustments on my 2 - Cold Blood pieces... I actually kept one of them with a 1500 Abranet w/ FF polish on it and rolls pretty sweet. This ball has a pin up layout - 55 x 5 1/4 x 35 layout which was very rolly type of reaction for me... with the polish, it gets through the front part of the lane with a little more pop in the backends, but still a strong rolling piece. Use this ball a lot on the medium length patterns (38-41').... just gives me a strong rolling piece that is not too over/under on the backends.

Hope this helps your questions...
