Psycho vs Emerald Vibe...Help
« on: September 22, 2008, 05:03:03 AM »
Hey Hammer guys!

For those who have both or one or the other, please let me know the difference between the two.

I just got a Emerald and was wondering if a Psycho would be a good edition to add to the arsenal. What type of conditions can this ball handle?

It's a stronger earlier ball that can handle more oil than the Emerald. The Emerald, Psycho, Anger would be a solid arsenal for the buck.

I have the Cherry and the Psycho, in my case yes it does fit well below it.

My Cherry is 5 3/8 pin to pap and my Psycho is 4 1/2 pin to pap, not even close to the same ball roll but the Cherry is slightly different than the Emerald.

i have both, but both are drilled completely different. my pyscho is drilled pin up and my emerald drilled pin down. i will say they are great complements. the emerald is a great drier lane ball and has great backend movement. the pyscho is one spot up in my arsenal. it handles about 5 more boards of oil than my emerald and it hits harder than the emerald

I have my Psycho drilled pin under ring.  In box finish, it was good on the fresh and ugly in carrydown.  I hit the cover with a wet grey scotchbrite and it is my go-to ball right now.

This has been discussed before, recently. Don't know if it will help, but here it is:
